The vulnerability could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker launches a man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attack against the traffic passing between a domain controller and the target machine. <br /><br />To learn more about the vulnerability, see <a href=“https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/ms16-072” target=“_self”>Microsoft Security Bulletin MS16-072</a>. </div><h2>Additional information about this security update</h2><div><br />The following articles contain additional information about this security update as it relates to individual product versions. The articles may contain known issue information.<br /><ul><li><a href=“https://support.microsoft.com/help/3159398” target=“_self”>3159398</a> MS16-072: Description of the security update for Group Policy: June 14, 2016</li><li><a href=“https://support.microsoft.com/help/3163017” target=“_self”>3163017</a> Cumulative update for Windows 10: June 14, 2016</li><li><a href=“https://support.microsoft.com/help/3163018” target=“_self”>3163018</a> Cumulative update for Windows 10 Version 1511 and Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 4: June 14, 2016</li></ul></div><h2>Known issues</h2><div>MS16-072 changes the security context with which user group policies are retrieved. This by-design behavior change protects customers’ computers from a security vulnerability. Before MS16-072 is installed, user group policies were retrieved by using the user’s security context. After MS16-072 is installed, user group policies are retrieved by using the computer’s security context. This issue is applicable for the following KB articles:<ul><li><a href=“https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3159398”>3159398 </a> MS16-072: Description of the security update for Group Policy: June 14, 2016</li><li><a href=“https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3163017”>3163017 </a> Cumulative update for Windows 10: June 14, 2016</li><li><a href=“https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3163018”>3163018 </a> Cumulative update for Windows 10 Version 1511 and Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 4: June 14, 2016</li><li><a href=“https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3163016”>3163016 </a> Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 5: June 14 2016</li></ul><h3>Symptoms</h3>All user Group Policy, including those that have been security filtered on user accounts or security groups, or both, may fail to apply on domain joined computers.<h3>Cause</h3>This issue may occur if the Group Policy Object is missing the <span>Read</span> permissions for the Authenticated Users group or if you are using security filtering and are missing <span>Read</span> permissions for the domain computers group.<h3>Resolution</h3>To resolve this issue, use the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC.MSC) and follow one of the following steps:<ul><li>Add the <span>Authenticated Users</span> group with Read Permissions on the Group Policy Object (GPO).</li><li>If you are using security filtering, add the <span>Domain Computers</span> group with read permission.</li></ul><p><strong><span><span>Note: </span></span></strong><span><span>If Loopback Processing is enabled in <strong>Merge</strong> mode you have to add the <strong>specific user(s) and</strong> the <strong>specific computer(s)</strong> for which the Group Policy is addressed. To do this, in the <strong>Group Policy Management Console</strong>, select the desired<strong> Group Policy,</strong> and then click the <strong>Scope</strong> tab. In the <strong>Security Filtering</strong> area, click <strong>Add</strong>, and then add the specific users <strong>and</strong> computers.</span></span></p></div><h2>How to obtain and install the update</h2><div><a></a><h3>Method 1: Windows Update</h3><div>This update is available through Windows Update.
