About this tag
MS13-036 is a Microsoft security bulletin rated Important that addresses vulnerabilities in the Windows kernel-mode driver (win32k.sys) and the Windows file system kernel-mode driver (ntfs.sys). These vulnerabilities could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker logs on locally and runs a specially crafted application. The original update KB2823324 was pulled due to compatibility issues with certain third-party software, causing system errors. Microsoft released a replacement update, KB2840149, which resolves the same security issues without the reported problems. Discussions on WindowsForum cover the bulletin details, the update replacement, and the corrected KB articles for affected systems.
