CVE-2015-0060
The font mapper in win32k.sys in the kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2, and Windows RT Gold and 8.1…
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.81%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
