moderate rating

The moderate rating tag on WindowsForum.com is used for Microsoft security bulletins where the severity of a vulnerability is classified as Moderate. This rating typically applies to issues that could allow denial of service or other limited impacts, often requiring user interaction such as visiting a network share or clicking a link. Examples include vulnerabilities in the Windows kernel-mode driver or kernel itself, where an attacker could cause a denial of service by convincing a user to access a specially crafted file or font. The tag helps users identify updates that address less critical but still important security risks in Windows systems.
