MS Security Bulletin MS04-022: Vulnerability in Task Scheduler Could Allow Code Execution

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-022: Vulnerability in Task Scheduler Could Allow Code Execution (841873):
"This update resolves a newly-discovered, privately reported vulnerability. A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Task Scheduler because of an unchecked buffer. The vulnerability is documented in the Vulnerability Details section of this bulletin.

If a user is logged on with administrative privileges, an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system, including installing programs; viewing, changing, or deleting data; or creating new accounts with full privileges. However, user interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer privileges on the system would be at less risk than users who operate with administrative privileges."
