Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Telephony Service allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
AnalysisAI
Heap-based buffer overflow in the Windows Telephony Service (TAPISRV) enables a locally authenticated, low-privileged attacker to escalate privileges to SYSTEM on a broad range of Windows client and server releases spanning Windows Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2025. The vulnerability carries a CVSS 7.8 score with low attack complexity, meaning exploitation is straightforward once local access is established, making it an effective second-stage tool in a broader attack chain. …
