Este CVE ID es exclusivo de CVE-2017-0282, CVE-2017-0284 y CVE-2017-8534.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Windows. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the processing of OpenType Layout (OTL) data in font files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated object. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.

Microsoft Windows suffers from a Uniscribe font processing out-of-bounds memory read vulnerability in USP10!SubstituteNtoM.
