CVE-2016-8732
Weak restrictions on the driver communication channel and additional insufficient checks allow any application to turn off some of the protection mechanisms provided by the Invincea product.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.59%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
