This is confirmed exploited in the wild. It is in the CISA KEV catalog, so attackers are actively using it, not just researchers. It needs local access, so it reads more as a privilege-escalation or post-access risk than a remote one. Patch this on priority and confirm the fix holds.

Required action for Microsoft Silverlight: The impacted product is end-of-life and should be disconnected if still in use. CISA set a federal remediation due date of 2022-06-15. After patching, verify the vulnerable path is no longer reachable before closing the finding.
