CVE-2017-17069
ActiveSetupN.exe in Amazon Audible for Windows before November 2017 allows attackers to execute arbitrary DLL code if ActiveSetupN.exe is launched from a directory where an attacker has already created a Trojan horse dwmapi.dll file.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.65%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
