Original NVD Description

The kernel in Microsoft Windows Vista Gold, SP1, and SP2, Windows Server 2008 Gold, SP2, and R2, and Windows 7 does not properly translate a registry key's virtual path to its real path, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (reboot) via a crafted application, aka "Windows Virtual Path Parsing Vulnerability."
