Any exploits of these vulns?
The vulnerabilities have been around for years, but no report of exploits. That, with the code available to anyone who wants to try and take advantage of it.

The flaws in the code must be pretty obscure. Microsoft keeps their code completely obscure, but malware creators still find holes. Imagine if the code were leaked?
