Description A security issue exists in the Group Policy application of Security Configuration policies, allowing man-in-the-middle attackers to disable a signing requirement and trigger a revert-to-default action by spoofing domain-controller responses. This could cause Group Policy settings on a targeted system to revert to their default, and potentially less secure, state.
Recommendations For Microsoft Windows Server 2003 SP2, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue. For Microsoft Windows Vista SP2, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue. For Microsoft Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue. For Microsoft Windows 7 SP1, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue. For Microsoft Windows 8, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue. For Microsoft Windows 8.1, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue. For Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue. For Microsoft Windows RT Gold and 8.1, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Group Policy application to minimize the risk of exploitation.
