Severity Rating: Important - Revision Note: V1.1 (April 12, 2011): Clarified the update FAQ, "I am a third-party application developer and I use Visual C++. How do I update my application?"Summary: This security update resolves a publicly disclosed vulnerability in certain applications built using the Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) Library. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user opens a legitimate file associated with such an affected application, and the file is located in the same network folder as a specially crafted library file. For an attack to be successful, a user must visit an untrusted remote file system location or WebDAV share and open a document from this location that is then loaded by the affected application.
