Memory disclosure via improper GDI handling

Published Apr 15, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Information disclosure in Microsoft Windows GDI allows remote attackers to read process memory through crafted content requiring user interaction. Microsoft has not published the affected GDI routine, input format, or precise operation that returns memory beyond intended data. Exploitation requires a victim to interact with attacker-controlled content and is limited to memory disclosure, with no reported data modification or service interruption.
