Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 and R2 SP1 and Windows 7 Gold and SP1 do not properly enforce AppLocker rules, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via a (1) macro or (2) scripting feature in an application, as demonstrated by Microsoft Office applications and the SANDBOX_INERT and LOAD_IGNORE_CODE_AUTHZ_LEVEL flags.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue weakens AppLocker enforcement on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. A local user may bypass intended application restrictions through macro or scripting features in applications, with Microsoft Office cited as an example. The bundle does not provide a CVSS score or active exploitation evidence. Exposure is most likely where legacy Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 systems depend on AppLocker to restrict local user execution. Systems not using AppLocker, or not allowing relevant macro or scripting-capable applications, have less clearly documented exposure from the provided sources. Treat this as a legacy control-bypass risk, not an emergency based on the provided evidence. Prioritize review if AppLocker is a key enforcement control on Windows 7 or Server 2008 R2 systems, especially in environments with local untrusted users. Mitigation focus: Review Microsoft KB 2532445 for official vendor guidance.; Inventory Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 systems using AppLocker.; Check whether AppLocker controls are relied on for macro-capable applications..
