Administrator lives in Ring 3 while this crash happens in Ring 0. Nobody, not even Admin shouldn't be able to corrupt kernel space. It's not a security issue per se - it's just a bug.

So, let me try and understand this.

According to what you have written, and the MSDN documentation on this 
CreateIpForwardEntry2 call, you need to be (at least) a member of the 
Administrators group.

So how is this "security vulnerability" any different to me creating a program, 
which will require the same Administrative rights, to say, wipe the boot configuration 
file?
