Microsoft released Security Advisory 2974294 which relates to a vulnerability which could allow denial of service if the Microsoft Malware Protection Engine scans a specially crafted file.

Although Microsoft is not aware of code existing for the vulnerability and the Malware Protection Engine will update automatically, there is nothing to lose by checking for updates manually.
