I want to be clear that this rerelease affects only developers and OEMs building applications on top of Windows Embedded CE 6.0 or producing devices that use the operating system. Today, we added Windows Embedded CE 6.0 to the affected products list. We also want to mention that we re-released MS09-035, an Active Template Library (ATL) bulletin that was released out-of-band in July 2009. ![]() The following risk and impact slide reflects the aggregate severity and exploitability index rating for this bulletin:Īs you can see from our Deployment Priority slide, we give this a “2” based on the lower exploitability index rating and the Low severity and mitigations on most of the affected platforms: ![]() We do recommend that customers evaluate and deploy this update as soon as possible. Our Security Research & Defense (SRD) team has a great write up on this in their blog. The vulnerable code is present on newer operating systems but through the Security Development Lifecycle (SDL), there are several mitigations in place that help prevent the likelihood of exploitation. We’ve given the bulletin an aggregate rating of “2” on our Exploitability Index. For all other versions of Windows, the vulnerability gets a Low rating. The bulletin, MS10-001, addresses one vulnerability in the Embedded OpenType Font Engine and is Critical on Windows 2000. For our first bulletin release of the New Year, we have one Critical bulletin affecting all versions of Windows. We hope that 2010 is off to a good start for you.
