Posted on 31 July 2012

Critical

Severity Rating: Critical
Revision Note: V1.1 (July 31, 2012): Bulletin revised to announce a detection change in the Windows Vista packages for KB2619339 to correct a Windows Update reoffering issue. This is a detection change only. Customers who have already successfully updated their systems do not need to take any action.
Summary: This security update resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted Microsoft Digital Video Recording (.dvr-ms) file. In all cases, a user cannot be forced to open the file; for an attack to be successful, a user must be convinced to do so.
