Integer overflow or wraparound in .NET allows an unauthorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
AnalysisAI
Local privilege escalation in Microsoft .NET runtimes (versions 8.0, 9.0, and 10.0) enables a local attacker to gain elevated system privileges by triggering an integer overflow condition, requiring only user interaction and no prior authentication. The flaw carries a CVSS 7.8 score with high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the broad deployment of .NET across enterprise Windows and Linux environments makes this a meaningful patching priority.
Technical ContextAI
CWE-190 (Integer Overflow or Wraparound) describes a condition where arithmetic on an integer value produces a result outside the type's representable range, causing a wrap-around that can corrupt adjacent memory, bypass bounds checks, or produce incorrect allocation sizes. In a managed runtime like .NET, such flaws can undermine type safety or memory isolation guarantees that the runtime normally enforces. The vulnerability spans three actively supported .NET release trains: .NET 8.0 (LTS, current enterprise baseline), .NET 9.0, and .NET 10.0, covering a wide range of server, desktop, and cross-platform deployments. The reporting contact (secure@microsoft.com) confirms Microsoft as the coordinating vendor, and the ENISA EUVD ID EUVD-2026-56606 provides an EU-side tracking reference. Tags include both 'Integer Overflow' and 'Buffer Overflow', suggesting the integer miscalculation may produce an undersized buffer leading to a subsequent heap or stack overflow condition.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to .NET 8.0.30, .NET 9.0.19, or .NET 10.0.11 as appropriate for the installed runtime channel. Microsoft has released patches for all three supported release trains; the Microsoft Security Response Center advisory at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-58641 is the authoritative source for patch packages and installation instructions. On systems where immediate patching is not feasible, restrict local user access to prevent execution of untrusted .NET applications, enforce application allowlisting (e.g., Windows Defender Application Control or AppLocker) to block arbitrary binary execution, and monitor for unexpected privilege changes on endpoints running affected .NET versions. Note that application allowlisting may introduce friction for development environments and requires careful policy scoping. No workaround eliminates the underlying overflow - patching is the definitive fix.
