description-logoDescription

A remote code execution vulnerability exists when Microsoft .NET Framework processes untrusted input. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability in software using the .NET framework could take control of an affected system.

Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.
