Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Hyper-V allows an authorized attacker to execute code locally.
AnalysisAI
Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Hyper-V enables a low-privileged guest VM user to escape the hypervisor sandbox and execute arbitrary code on the host system. The CVSS scope-change metric (S:C) and C:H/I:H/A:H impact ratings confirm this is a full VM-escape class vulnerability, giving an attacker inside a guest complete control over the underlying Hyper-V host. …
