DescriptionCVE.org

Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Windows TCP/IP allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

AnalysisAI

Local privilege escalation in the Windows TCP/IP kernel driver affects virtually every supported Windows release, from Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1. A low-privileged local attacker exploits a race condition (CWE-362) in a shared TCP/IP resource accessed concurrently without proper synchronization, winning the timing window to corrupt kernel state and elevate to SYSTEM. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires a locally authenticated user account with at minimum standard (low-privilege) access - PR:L per the CVSS vector - and the ability to execute arbitrary code on the target system. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 7.0 score with AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H accurately captures the key tension: full C/I/A impact offset by local-only attack vector and high complexity. … 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 Apply the Microsoft-issued security update via Windows Update or WSUS, targeting the fixed builds per platform: Windows 10 22H2 → 10.0.19045.7725, Windows 11 24H2 → 10.0.26100.9445, Windows 11 25H2 → 10.0.26200.9445, Windows 11 26H1 → 10.0.28000.2954, Windows Server 2025 → 10.0.26100.33438, Windows Server 2022 → 10.0.20348.5622, Windows Server 2019/1809 → 10.0.17763.9245, Windows Server 2016/1607 → 10.0.14393.9512, Windows Server 2012 R2 → 6.3.9600.23397, Windows Server 2012 → 6.2.9200.26349. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
