An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Windows kernel that could allow an attacker to retrieve information that could lead to a Kernel Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) bypass, aka 'Windows Kernel Information Disclosure Vulnerability'.

<p>An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Windows kernel that could allow an attacker to retrieve information that could lead to a <a href="https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/security/dn848375.aspx#ASLR">Kernel Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR)</a> bypass. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could retrieve the memory address of a kernel object.</p>
<p>To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker would have to log on to an affected system and run a specially crafted application.</p>
<p>The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how the Windows kernel handles memory addresses.</p>
