CVE-2017-0045

29
FAUCET Score

CVE-2017-0045 describes a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Windows DVD Maker, affecting Windows 7 SP1, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, and Windows Vista SP2. This flaw allows attackers to obtain sensitive information by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted .msdvd file. With a CVSS score of 5.5 (Medium), it requires user interaction (UI:R) and local access (AV:L) to exploit, potentially leading to information disclosure (C:H). While not actively exploited in the wild and absent from the KEV catalog, an XML External Entity Injection exploit (EDB-41619) exists, though there is no evidence of widespread community discussion or media coverage.
