CVE-2020-1510
An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the win32k component improperly provides kernel information.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (4.81%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the win32k component improperly provides kernel information. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could obtain information to further compromise the user’s system. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would have to log on to an affected system and run a specially crafted application. The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how win32k handles objects in memory.
