This one is listed as CVE-2021-34481, and can be exploited to elevate privilege to system level via file operations. That makes it really dangerous.

Microsoft is working on yet another fix for this latest print spooler exploit. But Microsoft really needs to spend some time to figure out what else is out there in terms of vulnerabilities are in the print spooler.
