Microsoft fixed blue screen vulnerability

Two days ago I wrote an article How to drop Windows with six lines of code .
After 2 days, the Microsoft security update was released: technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/bulletin/ms13-046 .
After installing the update, the vulnerability was fixed, the system stopped flying into the blue screen. Quite quickly corrected: only in two days (although the original article appeared 3 months ago).

An exception method was used to identify a service pack that fixes a vulnerability. The Microsoft site says that it fixes three vulnerabilities in the system kernel.
About the vulnerability, which is devoted to the topic, Microsoft on the site says the following:

Win32k Buffer Overflow Vulnerability - CVE-2013-1333
An elevation of privilege vulnerability when the Windows kernel mode is selected. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause system instability.
')
Apparently, Microsoft representatives also read Habrahabr.
