More Info

This security update resolves a total of 4 vulnerabilities in Microsoft Lync (one publicly disclosed and three privately reported). The most severe vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user views shared content that contains specially crafted TrueType fonts.

The security update addresses the vulnerabilities by correcting how specially crafted True Type Font files are handled, correcting the manner in which Microsoft Lync loads external libraries, and modifying the way that SafeHTML function sanitizes HTML content.

Keywords: security, vulnerability, hole, remote code execution, patch, hotfix, update, rollup package, lync cumulative update, lync server, lync latest current version
