| Detailed Description |
The Hotfix (MS16-073, 3164028) for 'Security Update for Windows Kernel-Mode Drivers' has not been applied.
This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows. The most severe of the vulnerabilities could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker logs on to an affected system and runs a specially crafted application.
Multiple Win32k Elevation of Privilege Vulnerabilities
Multiple elevation of privilege vulnerabilities exist in Windows when the Windows kernel-mode driver fails to properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerabilities could run arbitrary code in kernel mode. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
Windows Virtual PCI Information Disclosure Vulnerability - CVE-2016-3232
An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the Windows Virtual PCI (VPCI) virtual service provider (VSP) fails to properly handle uninitialized memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could potentially disclose contents of memory to which they should not have access.
