win32k.sys in the kernel in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2 and SP3, and Server 2003 SP2 does not correctly parse font code during construction of a directory-entry table, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Embedded OpenType (EOT) font, aka "Win32k EOT Parsing Vulnerability."

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy Windows kernel font-parsing flaw. If an affected old Windows system processes a malicious Embedded OpenType font, Microsoft described possible arbitrary code execution. The main business risk is unsupported or forgotten legacy Windows assets still running without MS09-065. Exposure is limited to the affected legacy Windows versions named in the source bundle, especially systems missing Microsoft bulletin MS09-065. The supplied evidence does not identify newer affected products. Treat this as high priority only where legacy Windows systems remain. Fully patched or retired environments have limited relevance, but any unpatched affected host represents serious compromise potential. Mitigation focus: Apply Microsoft security update MS09-065 where applicable.; Retire or isolate unsupported Windows 2000, XP, and Server 2003 systems.; Check Microsoft guidance for any environment-specific compensating controls..
