MS16-113: Security Update for Windows Secure Kernel Mode (3185876)
Description
An information disclosure vulnerability exists in Windows when Windows Secure Kernel Mode improperly handles objects in memory. A locally-authenticated attacker could attempt to exploit the vulnerability by running a specially crafted application on a targeted system. Note that the information disclosure vulnerability alone would not be sufficient for an attacker to compromise a system, but would have to be combined with additional vulnerabilities to further exploit the system.
