Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Services for NFS ONCRPC XDR Driver allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
AnalysisAI
Heap-based buffer overflow in the Windows Services for NFS ONCRPC XDR Driver enables a locally authenticated attacker with standard user privileges to escalate to SYSTEM on a wide range of Windows and Windows Server releases. The affected component handles ONC RPC data serialization for NFS operations; triggering the overflow requires only an existing local session and no user interaction. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Windows Services for NFS must be explicitly installed on the target system - specifically the ONCRPC XDR Driver must be present and operational. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 7.8 score with AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N reflects a local privilege escalation that is technically straightforward once an attacker has a foothold - low attack complexity means no heap grooming or timing dependency is 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 Microsoft's patch for the specific Windows build in use, as documented in the MSRC advisory at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-73024. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
