Generation of error message containing sensitive information in Windows Kernel allows an authorized attacker to disclose information 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.
