Integer overflow or wraparound in Microsoft Graphics Component allows an authorized attacker to execute code locally.
**What actions do customers need to take to protect themselves from this vulnerability?** Customers who have disabled Automatic Extension Upgrades or would like to upgrade an extension immediately must manually update their Azure Monitor Agent to the latest version. For more information on how to perform a manual update, see Manage Azure Monitor Agent.
Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft MPEG-2 Video Extension allows an authorized attacker to execute code locally.
**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. This means an attacker or victim needs to execute code from the local machine to exploit the vulnerability.
**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N) and the user interaction is required (UI:R). What is the target context of the remote code execution?** This attack requires an admin user on the client to connect to a malicious server, and that could allow the attacker to gain code execution on the client.
**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N), user interaction is required (UI:R), and privileges required are none (PR:N). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploitation of this vulnerability requires an unauthorized attacker to wait for a user to initiate a connection to a malicious server that the attacker has set up prior to the user connecting.
Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.
