    Removed Translation Vulnerabilidad no especificada en el kernel en Microsoft Windows 8.1 permite a usuarios locales ganar privilegios a través de vectores desconocidos, tal y como fue demostrado por Sebastian Apelt y Andreas Schmidt durante una competición Pwn2Own en CanSecWest 2014.
    Added Translation Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 hasta la versión 11 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o provocar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria) a través de un sitio web manipulado, según lo demostrado por Sebastian Apelt y Andreas Schmidt durante una competición Pwn2Own en CanSecWest 2014. NOTA: la divulgación original se refería al desencadenamiento de un error del kernel explotado con la carga de Internet Explorer, pero este ID no es para una vulnerabilidad del kernel.
