  "description": "\u003Cp\u003EAn elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when DirectX improperly handles objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in kernel mode. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ETo exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application that could exploit the vulnerability and take control of an affected system.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how DirectX handles objects in memory.\u003C/p\u003E",
