51
FAUCET Score

CVE-2017-0061 is an information disclosure vulnerability in the Color Management Module (ICM32.dll) of Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2, and Windows 7 SP1. This flaw allows remote attackers to bypass ASLR and potentially execute code when combined with another vulnerability, typically via a crafted website. Rated Medium (CVSS 5.3), it requires user interaction and high attack complexity, but can lead to a complete compromise of confidentiality. While not actively exploited in the wild (no KEV entry), a public proof-of-concept exists on ExploitDB, though there is minimal community discussion or media coverage.
