Microsoft Windows Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities
RISK: High Risk
TYPE: Operating Systems - Windows OS
Multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities exist when Windows improperly validates input before loading libraries. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerabilities could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.
