Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2015-6104 is a Windows graphics/font handling flaw that can let an attacker run code by getting a vulnerable system to process a malicious embedded font. The business risk is highest for legacy or unpatched Windows systems still exposed to documents or web content. Exposure is most likely on Windows Vista SP2, Server 2008 SP2/R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8/8.1, Server 2012/R2, Windows RT, and early Windows 10 builds that lack MS15-115-era fixes. Prioritize this for legacy Windows risk reduction. It is an old vulnerability, but public exploit references and remote code execution impact make unmanaged legacy systems a material exposure. Mitigation focus: Apply the Microsoft MS15-115 security update where applicable.; Identify and retire unsupported Windows versions when patching is unavailable.; Restrict untrusted document handling on legacy Windows systems..
