Windows CreateObjectTask SettingsSyncDiagnostics Privilege Escalation

Windows CreateObjectTask SettingsSyncDiagnostics Privilege Escalation
Posted Sep 18, 2015
Authored by Google Security Research, forshaw

The Microsoft\Windows\Shell\CreateObjectTask initializes a shell32 based ICreateObject COM server as local system. This is marked as being accessible from a normal user account so once created we can attach to it. The server only has one method, CreateObject which checks the CLSID against a list of known safe classes before allowing it to be instantiated. One of these classes is a diagnostic class for setting synchronization implemented in SettingSync.dll.
