(CVE-2017-0228)

  - A spoofing vulnerability exists in Microsoft browsers     due to improper rendering of the SmartScreen filter. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted URL, to redirect users to a malicious     website that appears to be a legitimate website.
    (CVE-2017-0231)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in     Microsoft browsers in the JavaScript scripting engines     due to improper handling of objects in memory.

(CVE-2017-0238)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the     win32k component due to improper handling of objects in     memory. A local attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted application, to execute arbitrary code     with elevated permissions. Note that an attacker can     also cause a denial of service condition on Windows 7     x64 or later systems. (CVE-2017-0246)

  - A security bypass vulnerability exists in the Microsoft     .NET Framework and .NET Core components due to a failure     to completely validate certificates. An attacker can     exploit this to present a certificate that is marked     invalid for a specific use, but the component uses it     for that purpose, resulting in a bypass of the Enhanced     Key Usage taggings. (CVE-2017-0248)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     Windows kernel due to improper initialization of objects     in memory. A local attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted application, to disclose sensitive     information. (CVE-2017-0258)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     Windows kernel due to improper initialization of objects     in memory. A local attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted application, to disclose sensitive     information. (CVE-2017-0259)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the     Windows kernel-mode driver due to improper handling of     objects in memory. A local attacker can exploit this,     via a specially crafted application, to run arbitrary     code in kernel mode. (CVE-2017-0263)
