Not sure, but I just read this https://www.google.dk/amp/s/www.express.co.uk/life-style/science-technology/1113096/Windows-10-warning-Microsoft-issue-fix-for-security-vulnerability/amp

Eh, it's just a privilege-escalation issue. The same rules apply, as always: don't download and run stupid shit on your PC and keep your Windows up-to-date.

Every month they patch dozens of serious vulnerabilities.  So that's nothing special.

To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system.

As long as you don't invite the hacker into your house and have remote access disabled, I wouldn't worry too much.

It's worded poorly, they don't mean that someone would have to physically access the PC. They just mean that a malicious person need to already have a local access, ie. like getting a dumb user to run an .exe they got in an email.

Ah, ok.  Yeah, then it's worded VERY poorly indeed.

There are a ton of new Windows/MacOSX/Linux vulnerabilities regularly. That's why you have to update your systems.
