Buffer overflow in win32k.sys in the kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3, Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, and Windows 7 SP1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang)…
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.29%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
