# CVE-2016-3262: GDI+ Information Disclosure Vulnerability CVE-2016-3262 is fixed in 42 products on 1 platform, first by KB3192441, released October 11, 2016. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2016-3262 - Priority: High - CVSS: n/a (Important) - EPSS: 0.3198 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Vendor exploitability assessment: Exploitation Less Likely - Published: Oct 11, 2016 - Vendor advisory: https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2016-3262 ## Description

An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the way that the Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI) handles objects in memory, allowing an attacker to retrieve information from a targeted system. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could use the retrieved information to circumvent Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) in Windows, which helps guard against a broad class of vulnerabilities. By itself, the information disclosure does not allow arbitrary code execution; however, it could allow arbitrary code to be run if the attacker uses it in combination with another vulnerability, such as a remote code execution vulnerability, that is capable of leveraging the ASLR circumvention.

To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would have to log on to an affected system and run a specially crafted application.

The security update addresses the vulnerability, and helps protect the integrity of the ASLR security feature, by correcting how GDI handles memory addresses.
