Microsoft stated in a security bulletin on Monday that the vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted document or visits an untrusted webpage that contains embedded OpenType fonts.

“An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights,” the advisory added.

Users running Windows Vista, Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and Windows RT are all affected, including those running Windows Server 2008 and later.

This “critical” software update is an emergency patch release, coming after the normally scheduled Patch Tuesday which released 14 bulletins fixing numerous patches

The patch is available using normal Windows Update processes.
