Risk summary
Not in the CISA KEV catalog. EPSS exploit probability 80%. CVSS 9.8 (Critical).
This CVE is among the top 25% of tracked Microsoft CVEs by EPSS exploit probability.
A second Win32k elevation of privilege flaw in the same cycle, also Critical (CVSS 9.8) on Windows 10 Version 1809 and Windows Server 2019, also carrying a 72 percent EPSS score. Two high-probability win32k bugs at once effectively double an attacker's chances that at least one works reliably on a given target. Both are fixed by the same update, so the defensive work is a single deployment.
Do this: Verify the cumulative update covering both win32k flaws has reached every 1809 and Server 2019 endpoint, including offline or rarely connected machines.
