DescriptionCVE.org

Integer overflow or wraparound in Microsoft Azure Attestation service and Device Health Attestation Service allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution affects Microsoft Azure Attestation service and Device Health Attestation Service via an integer overflow condition that leads to a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122). Unauthenticated network attackers can exploit this flaw - confirmed by PR:N in the CVSS vector - though the high attack complexity (AC:H) indicates precise exploitation conditions must be met. …
