Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to have an active local session on the target Windows system - either physical local logon, Remote Desktop (RDP) access, or an equivalent session - with at minimum low-privilege (standard user) credentials (CVSS PR:L). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS base score of 5.5 (Medium) accurately reflects the constrained attack surface: AV:L requires the attacker to already have local access or an established session on the target system, and PR:L means at minimum low-privilege credentials are required. … 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-released security update corresponding to the installed Windows version, bringing build numbers to or above the thresholds listed in the affected versions data (e.g., Windows 10 22H2 to 10.0.19045.7725, Windows 11 24H2 to 10.0.26100.9445, Windows Server 2025 to 10.0.26100.33438). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
