CVE-2019-1047
An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the Windows GDI component improperly discloses the contents of its memory.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (4.31%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description

There are multiple ways an attacker could exploit the vulnerability, such as by convincing a user to open a specially crafted document, or by convincing a user to visit an untrusted webpage.
