Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds read
EUVDB-ID: #VU25932
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 3.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-0885
CWE-ID:
CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the Windows GDI component. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted document or visit an untrusted webpage. trigger out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.
MitigationInstall update from vendor's website.
