The kernel in Microsoft Windows 10 Gold, 1511, and 1607 and Windows Server 2016 mishandles page-fault system calls, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from arbitrary processes via a crafted application, aka "Windows Kernel Memory Address Information Disclosure Vulnerability."

Security readout for executives and security teams

This Windows kernel flaw can let a local user run a crafted application to read sensitive information from other processes. It is not described as remote code execution, but process memory disclosure can still support broader compromise when combined with other weaknesses. Exposure is mainly systems running the listed Windows 10 releases or Windows Server 2016 without the relevant Microsoft MS16-152 updates. Attackers need local ability to run code on the target system. Treat this as a patch and lifecycle hygiene issue, not an emergency based on the supplied evidence. Prioritize internet-facing workstations, shared servers, and systems where many users can run local code. Mitigation focus: Review Microsoft MS16-152 and apply the applicable Windows security updates.; Inventory Windows 10 Gold, 1511, 1607, and Windows Server 2016 systems.; Upgrade unsupported Windows releases to supported versions where patch status is uncertain..
