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.
