Description

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when Windows improperly handles errors tied to Remote Access Common Dialog. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could run arbitrary code with elevated privileges. To exploit this vulnerability an attacker would need to physically access the booted machine to reach the logon screen. An attacker could then exploit the vulnerability and take control of an affected system. The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how the Windows handles errors tied to Remote Access Common Dialog.
