MS13-001: Vulnerabilities in Windows Print Spooler Components Could Allow Remote Code Execution (2769369)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 63419

Synopsis

The remote Windows host is potentially affected by a code execution vulnerability.

Description

The remote Windows host is potentially affected by a vulnerability that could allow remote code execution if a print server received a specially crafted print job. Firewall best practices and standard default firewall configurations can help protect networks from attacks that originate outside the enterprise perimeter. Best practices recommend that systems connected directly to the Internet have a minimal number of ports exposed.

Solution

Microsoft has released a set of patches for Windows 7, and 2008 R2.
