Windbg or SoftICE? :)


Windbg; it's free and doesn't require any setup to do this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/d...

(Working out how to patch such that I wouldn't crash the system if a process happens to call that API while it was in a half-modified state was also a fun problem...)

I dug out the details on the bug I patched, and it isn't the same as this one; it's a race condition with timeouts on waiting for keyed events, which I believe isn't applicable in this situation as there are no timeouts.
