Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less affected than users who operate with administrative user rights.</span></span></span></p><p><span><span><span>To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker would first have to convince the user to open a malicious document or application.</span></span></span></p><p><span><span><span>This security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how .NET Framework validates untrusted input.</span></span></span></p><p><span><span><span>To learn more about this vulnerability, see <a href="https://portal.msrc.microsoft.com/security-guidance/advisory/CVE-2018-8421"><span><span><span>Microsoft Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures CVE-2018-8421</span></span></span></a>.</span></span></span></p></div><h2></h2><p><strong><span class="text-base">Important</span></strong></p><ul><li><span><span><span> <span><span><span>All updates for Windows 8.1, Windows RT 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 require update <a data-content-id="" data-content-type="" href="https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2919355" target="">KB 2919355</a> to be installed.
