DescriptionCVE.org

Inclusion of functionality from untrusted control sphere in .NET allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose information over a network.

AnalysisAI

Information disclosure in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) within .NET 8, 9, and 10 allows an unauthenticated network attacker to exfiltrate sensitive data when a target user opens a specially crafted document. The WPF document parser resolves external references from attacker-controlled URIs - an SSRF-adjacent primitive (CWE-829, CWE-918) - causing outbound network requests that can expose authentication tokens or internal metadata to the attacker's infrastructure. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Craft malicious WPF document with external resource URI
Delivery
Deliver to target via phishing or malicious file share
Exploit
Target opens document in WPF application
Execution
.NET runtime resolves untrusted external reference
Persist
Outbound network request issued with authentication headers
Impact
Credentials or metadata captured on attacker server

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The target must open a specially crafted WPF document using a vulnerable .NET runtime on Windows - user interaction is explicitly required (CVSS UI:R). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5 Medium is well-calibrated: AV:N/AC:L/PR:N reflects broad network reachability with no attacker prerequisites, while UI:R materially limits automation - mass exploitation requires delivering and getting users to open crafted documents, not a fully hands-off attack chain. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker crafts a malicious WPF document that embeds external resource references (e.g., a remote XAML include or image URI) pointing to an attacker-controlled server, then delivers it via a phishing email or compromised file share. When the target opens the document in a WPF-based application on a vulnerable .NET runtime, the parser resolves the external URI and issues an outbound HTTP request - potentially carrying Windows NTLM authentication headers - which the attacker captures, enabling credential relay or offline cracking. …
Remediation Vendor-released patches are available for all affected versions. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
