"Today proof of concept code (source code, with a compiled binary) of a 0-day privilege escalation vulnerability in almost all Windows operating system versions (Windows XP, Vista, 7, Server 2008 ...) has been posted on a popular programming web site.

The vulnerability is a buffer overflow in kernel (win32k.sys) and due to its nature allows an attacker to bypass User Access Control (UAC) on Windows Vista and 7 operating systems ...
Author of the PoC managed to find such a key that can be created by a normal user on Windows Vista and 7 (so, a user that does not even have any administrative privileges). ...

The PoC has been in the mean time removed from the original site but now that it has been published Iâ(TM)m sure that everyone who wants to get it can do that easily."

But never fear Bowser's Galaxy Reactor has been destroyed and Princess Peach is safe (once again). However some power stars are still trapped and I will endeavour to free them.
