Technical Information

Brief overview of the risk:
This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows, Microsoft .NET Framework, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Lync, and Microsoft Silverlight. The most severe of the vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted document or visits an untrusted webpage that contains embedded TrueType or OpenType fonts.

Detailed Information on the risk:

Remote code execution vulnerabilities exist when components of Windows, .NET Framework, Office, Lync, and Silverlight fail to properly handle TrueType fonts. An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could take complete control of the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
