CVE-2008-1084
Unspecified vulnerability in the kernel in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2, Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, through Vista SP1, and Server 2008 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors related to improper input validation.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (6.75%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
