8.1 HIGH

Race condition requires precise timing to exploit (AC:H); attestation endpoint is network-exposed with no authentication gate (AV:N, PR:N); full compromise of the attestation process is plausible (C:H/I:H/A:H).

DescriptionCVE.org

Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Microsoft Azure Attestation service and Device Health Attestation Service allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution is possible in Microsoft Azure Attestation and the Device Health Attestation Service due to a race condition (CWE-362) in shared resource handling. An unauthenticated network attacker who can win a precise timing window can achieve full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the affected service. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N) indicates network-accessible exploitation requiring no authentication and no user interaction, but with high attack complexity - meaning the race condition window must be reliably won, likely requiring concurrent or rapid repeated requests. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 8.1 score reflects high impact (C:H/I:H/A:H) tempered by high attack complexity (AC:H), which is appropriate for a race condition requiring precise timing to exploit reliably. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Consult the Microsoft Security Response Center advisory at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-66802 for patch status and any required customer action. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, conduct a complete inventory of Microsoft Azure Attestation and Device Health Attestation Service deployments across your environment and enable enhanced logging and monitoring specifically for these services; immediately review access logs from the past 90 days for indicators of exploitation or suspicious timing-based activity patterns. …
