Improper control of generation of code ('code injection') in Microsoft PowerShell allows an unauthorized attacker to bypass a security feature locally.
AnalysisAI
Code injection (CWE-94) in Microsoft PowerShell enables a local, unauthenticated attacker to bypass a security feature through user interaction, resulting in high-impact compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.8 reflects a local attack vector requiring user interaction, with no privileges needed from the attacker. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires local access to the target system - remote unauthenticated network exploitation is not indicated by the AV:L vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 7.8 score is driven by a local attack vector (AV:L), low attack complexity (AC:L), no required privileges (PR:N), and required user interaction (UI:R), with unchanged scope and full C/I/A impact. … 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 patch referenced in the MSRC advisory at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-70338. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all PowerShell deployments across Windows environments, classify systems by criticality, and distribute an urgent advisory instructing users to reject unsolicited PowerShell scripts and commands from untrusted sources. …
