Fixlet Link: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/advisory/2506014.mspx
Fixlet Description: Microsoft is announcing the availability of an update to winload.exe to address an issue in driver signing enforcement. While this is not an issue that would require a security update, this update addresses a method by which unsigned drivers could be loaded by winload.exe. This technique is often utilized by malware to stay resident on a system after the initial infection. After downloading and installing this update, affected computers will no longer be susceptible to these vulnerabilities.
