Shoot, it takes longer for me to wait for the user access window to run a command as an admin.
How would one do this?...
300ms refers to the window of time that the vulnerable DLL has elevated privileges and therefore the window that an attacker has to exploit it.
It doesn’t mean that the whole compromise from the start of an exploit chain takes 300ms. Badly written (clickbait) headline.
