CVE-2010-5157: Race Condition
First published: Sat Aug 25 2012(Updated: )
Race condition in Comodo Internet Security before 4.1.149672.916 on Windows XP allows local users to bypass kernel-mode hook handlers, and execute dangerous code that would otherwise be blocked by a handler but not blocked by signature-based malware detection, via certain user-space memory changes during hook-handler execution, aka an argument-switch attack or a KHOBE attack.
