  • Windows Server 2012 R2
  • Windows Server 2012
  • Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
  • Windows Server 2008 SP2

Affected applications and network appliances will need an update from the developer or vendor to fix this issue. However, this update does not seem to be available yet, as Microsoft and Riverbed are currently investigating the issue and will provide an update as soon as more information is available.
