DescriptionCVE.org

Out-of-bounds read in Windows CD-ROM Driver allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose information with a physical attack.

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds read in the Windows CD-ROM kernel-mode driver exposes kernel memory contents to an attacker with physical access across virtually every supported Windows release from Server 2012 through Windows 11 Version 26H1. The flaw (CWE-125) allows kernel memory disclosure - potentially including credentials or cryptographic material - when a crafted disc interaction or malformed IOCTL triggers a read beyond the intended buffer boundary. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Physical access to the target system is the hard prerequisite - the CVSS vector confirms AV:P, making remote exploitation impossible. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.6 score accurately captures the constrained threat model: physical access (AV:P) is the hard prerequisite, rendering remote exploitation impossible and mass exploitation implausible. … 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 patches for the specific Windows version in use, targeting the minimum fixed builds documented in EUVD-2026-73309: for example, Windows 10 22H2 to build 10.0.19045.7725 or later, Windows 11 24H2/25H2 to 10.0.26100.9445 or later, and Windows Server 2025 to 10.0.26100.33438 or later. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
