This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Microsoft Windows TrueType Font. A successful attack can lead to arbitrary code execution.
Microsoft Windows kernel is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue by tricking an unsuspecting victim into opening a specially malformed TrueType font. Successful exploits can allow attackers to execute arbitrary code with kernel-level privileges. Failed exploit attempts may result in a denial-of-service condition.
