DescriptionCVE.org

Use after free in Active Directory Domain Services allows an authorized attacker to execute code over a network.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in Windows Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) exposes domain controllers across Windows Server 2012 through 2025 to exploitation by low-privileged authenticated domain users via a use-after-free memory corruption flaw. The vulnerability (CWE-416) is reachable over the network but requires high attack complexity, likely a race condition or heap-grooming technique, to achieve fully controlled memory corruption resulting in arbitrary code execution with C:H/I:H/A:H impact. …
