Windows 11 Version 24H2
Monthly
BitLocker encryption bypass on Windows enables an unauthenticated attacker with physical access to circumvent drive-level encryption protections and read confidential data from protected volumes. Affected platforms span Windows 10 (versions 1607 through 22H2), Windows 11 (24H2 through 26H1), and Windows Server 2016 through 2025, with a publicly available proof-of-concept exploit on GitHub lowering the bar for physical-access adversaries. No active exploitation is confirmed (not in CISA KEV; SSVC exploitation status: none), and EPSS sits at 0.38% (30th percentile), consistent with a targeted rather than opportunistic threat; Microsoft has released patches across all affected build lines.
Local code execution in the Windows Media component of supported Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server (2016 through 2025) releases lets an unauthorized attacker run arbitrary code when a victim opens a maliciously crafted media file. The flaw is a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) reported by Microsoft with a vendor patch available; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. CVSS is 7.8 (High), driven by full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact but gated by local vector and required user interaction.
Denial of service in Microsoft Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to send crafted network requests that drive a request-handling routine into an infinite loop (CWE-835), exhausting CPU and rendering the federation service unavailable. All supported Windows Server releases hosting the AD FS role are impacted, and because the flaw requires no authentication and no user interaction (CVSS 7.5, AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), it can knock out single sign-on for every relying-party application. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, so this is a patch-priority availability issue rather than a confirmed active-exploitation event.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Wireless Wide Area Network Service (WwanSvc) lets an authenticated low-privileged user elevate to SYSTEM by delivering crafted serialized data that the service deserializes unsafely (CWE-502). Reported by Microsoft, it affects a broad range of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server builds and carries CVSS 7.8 with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and it is not in CISA KEV, but a vendor patch is available.
Information disclosure in the Windows Remote Desktop Client (mstsc/RDP client component) lets a remote attacker read memory beyond an intended buffer boundary, leaking potentially sensitive process data over the network. The flaw affects a broad span of supported Windows client and server releases from Windows Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2025. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS risk is modest (0.64%), and CISA's SSVC framework marks exploitation as 'none' — a patch is available from Microsoft.
Information disclosure in the Windows Network Policy Server (NPS) SNMP handling allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to read out-of-bounds memory over the network and disclose potentially sensitive data. The flaw affects a broad range of Windows Server (2012 through 2025) and Windows client builds where the NPS role/SNMP component is present. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV; a vendor patch is available from Microsoft (MSRC).
Information disclosure in Microsoft Windows Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker read out-of-bounds memory across a wide swath of Windows client and server builds (Windows 10 1607 through Windows 11 26H1, Windows Server 2012 through Server 2025). The root cause is an off-by-one error (CWE-193) that overreads adjacent memory, potentially leaking sensitive process data; CVSS is 7.5 with confidentiality-only impact and no code execution. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the low EPSS (0.89%) plus CISA SSVC exploitation status of 'none' indicate no observed exploitation yet.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Runtime (WinRT) affects current Microsoft platforms including Windows 11 24H2, 25H2, 26H1, and Windows Server 2025, where a race condition (CWE-362) in the handling of a shared resource lets an already-authenticated local user win a timing window to gain higher privileges. Microsoft has released a patch, and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. With a CVSS 7.0 (AV:L/AC:H/PR:L) the flaw requires local access and precise timing, making it a plausible second-stage escalation rather than an initial entry point.
Local code execution in Microsoft's Resilient File System (ReFS) driver affects Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1) and Windows Server 2025, where a stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-121) can be triggered when a victim interacts with attacker-crafted ReFS data. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R) shows an unauthenticated but user-interaction-dependent local attack yielding full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not on CISA KEV, so it currently represents a patch-priority rather than an active-exploitation emergency.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the Windows Resilient File System (ReFS) driver enables an unauthorized attacker with physical access to the target machine to execute arbitrary code, achieving full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability spans a wide range of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server releases from 2016 through 2025. No public exploit or active exploitation has been identified (SSVC: Exploitation none), and Microsoft has released patches; however, the physical attack vector (AV:P) is the dominant risk-shaping factor.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Code Integrity module (ci.dll) allows an already-authenticated, low-privileged user on affected Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server builds to read memory outside intended bounds and gain SYSTEM-level control. Microsoft has shipped patches and rates real-world impact as total (full confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss on the host), but the flaw requires prior local access and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. EPSS is low (0.25%, 16th percentile) and CISA SSVC lists exploitation as none, indicating this is an important patch-cycle item rather than an emergency.
Remote code execution in the Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) service across Windows 10, Windows 11 (through 26H1), and Windows Server 2012-2025 allows an authorized (PR:L) attacker to run arbitrary code over the network by triggering a use-after-free memory-corruption condition. Microsoft self-reported the flaw and has shipped fixed builds; SSVC rates exploitation as none and EPSS is low (0.48%, 38th percentile), so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis despite the high 8.8 CVSSv3.1 base score.
Elevation of privilege in the Microsoft Windows Universal Disk Format File System driver (UDFS) allows a local attacker to gain higher privileges after a user mounts or opens a maliciously crafted UDF-formatted volume such as an ISO or disc image. The flaw is an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125) in the kernel-mode UDFS parser, and successful exploitation yields high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CVSS 7.8). No public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but Microsoft has released a patch.
Local privilege escalation in the Microsoft Windows Installer (MSI) service affects a broad range of Windows client and server releases, from Windows 10 1607 and Server 2012 through Windows 11 25H2/26H1 and Server 2025. A use-after-free (CWE-416) in the Windows Installer component lets a low-privileged authenticated attacker who already has local code execution corrupt memory to run code with elevated (SYSTEM-level) privileges. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the SSVC exploitation status is 'none', but the technical impact is rated total and Microsoft has shipped a patch.
Local privilege escalation to code execution in the Windows NTFS file-system driver stems from a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) that an authenticated local attacker can trigger to run arbitrary code with elevated privileges. The flaw was reported by Microsoft and spans a broad range of currently-supported Windows client and server releases, from Windows 10 1607 and Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Server 2025. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the low attack complexity and reliable memory-corruption primitive in a core kernel-mode driver make it a strong candidate for patch-Tuesday prioritization.
Local privilege escalation in Microsoft Windows Win32K lets an authenticated low-privileged user corrupt kernel heap memory (CWE-122) to gain SYSTEM-level control across virtually all supported Windows client and server builds. Publicly available exploit code exists, though CISA SSVC assessed exploitation status as none and EPSS is modest (0.37%, 29th percentile), indicating a serious but not yet mass-exploited weakness. A vendor patch is available via Microsoft's update guide, making prompt patching the clear priority.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Print Spooler Components affects Windows 10 (1809, 21H2, 22H2), Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1), and Windows Server 2019/2022/2025, where a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) lets an already-authenticated local user corrupt heap memory in a Spooler component and gain SYSTEM-level privileges. Exploitation requires low-privilege local access (CVSS AV:L/PR:L) with no user interaction, yielding full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV.
Privilege escalation in the Windows Netlogon service allows an authenticated network attacker to gain elevated privileges by triggering a use-after-free (CWE-416) memory-corruption condition. The flaw affects a broad range of supported Windows client and server builds, from Windows Server 2012 through Windows 11 25H2/26H1 and Windows Server 2025, and was reported by Microsoft. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC currently rates exploitation as none, with a low EPSS of 0.62%.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Clipboard User Service lets an already-authenticated low-privileged user run OS commands in the service's higher-privilege security context by injecting special elements into a command the service constructs (CWE-77). Affected platforms are Windows 11 24H2/25H2 and Windows Server 2025 (including Server Core). Microsoft has issued a patch; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not on the CISA KEV list.
Privilege elevation via a use-after-free in the Microsoft Windows DNS component lets a network-based, unauthenticated attacker corrupt memory and potentially gain higher privileges on affected Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1) and Windows Server 2025 systems. Microsoft rates it CVSS 9.8, and the SSVC assessment lists total technical impact but notes no observed exploitation and that it is not automatable. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not on CISA KEV; EPSS is low at 0.67% (48th percentile).
Elevation of privilege in the Windows Runtime (WinRT) component affects Windows 10 (21H2/22H2), Windows 11 (24H2/25H2/26H1), and Windows Server 2025, where a use-after-free memory-corruption flaw lets an already-authenticated local user run code at higher privilege. Microsoft has released a patch and reported the issue; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV. Given the CVSS 7.8 (Important) rating and full C/I/A impact, this is a standard local privilege-escalation risk suited for regular patch prioritization rather than emergency response.
Denial of service in Windows Hyper-V allows an authorized, adjacent-network attacker to crash or disrupt the hypervisor by triggering a buffer over-read (CWE-126). Affected platforms span Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2012 through 2025, covering a broad slice of Microsoft's enterprise footprint. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, but a vendor-issued patch is available via Microsoft MSRC.
Remote code execution in the Windows Event Logging Service affects a broad range of Microsoft Windows client and server releases (Windows 10 1607 through Windows 11 26H1, and Windows Server 2012 through 2025), where insufficient granularity of access controls (CWE-1220) lets an authenticated attacker with low privileges execute code over the network with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. Microsoft has released patches for all affected builds. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA has not listed it in KEV, with a low EPSS score of 0.61%.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Graphics Kernel component allows an authenticated attacker to elevate to SYSTEM by triggering a use-after-free (CWE-416) memory-corruption condition. All currently supported Windows client and server builds are affected - from Windows 10 1809 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2019 through 2025. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; Microsoft has released a patch, and the CVSS 7.8 (Important) rating reflects high impact but a local-access, low-privilege prerequisite.
Local privilege escalation in the Microsoft Windows Kernel lets an already-authenticated attacker corrupt heap memory to gain SYSTEM-level control across Windows 10 (1809/21H2/22H2), Windows 11 (24H2/25H2/26H1), and Windows Server 2019/2022/2025. The CVSS 7.8 (AV:L/PR:L) rating reflects that low-privileged code execution is a prerequisite; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, but Microsoft has released a patch. This is a classic post-exploitation escalation primitive rather than an initial-access vector.
Microsoft Graphics Component on Windows 11 (versions 24H2, 25H2, 26H1) and Windows Server 2025 leaks sensitive information to locally authenticated standard users. Exploitation requires existing local access with at least user-level privileges (PR:L, AV:L), after which the attacker can extract sensitive data through the Graphics Component without any user interaction. No active exploitation has been confirmed - SSVC categorizes exploitation as 'none,' CISA KEV listing is absent, and EPSS of 0.35% (27th percentile) reflects low near-term exploitation probability.
Local tampering in Windows DNS via improper access control (CWE-284) allows a low-privilege authenticated local user to manipulate DNS configuration or records across a broad range of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server releases. The CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L) confirms exploitation requires only a valid local account with no elevated privileges, yielding high integrity impact with minimal availability disruption and no direct confidentiality exposure. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the 'Authentication Bypass' advisory tag suggests DNS tampering may enable downstream bypass of authentication mechanisms dependent on DNS resolution, potentially amplifying the effective impact beyond the raw CVSS score.
Local privilege escalation to code execution in the Windows NTFS driver affects a broad range of supported Windows client and server builds, from Windows 10 1607 and Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Server 2025. An authenticated local attacker who can trigger the vulnerable NTFS code path can corrupt heap memory (CWE-122) to run arbitrary code, gaining high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the affected system. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the low EPSS score (0.31%, 23rd percentile) together with CISA SSVC 'Exploitation: none' indicates no observed exploitation, though the total technical impact keeps it patch-worthy.
Local privilege escalation in the Microsoft Windows Kernel lets an authenticated attacker who already has low-privileged code execution on a host elevate to SYSTEM by exploiting a use-after-free (CWE-416) memory corruption. It affects a broad range of supported Windows client and server builds - Windows 10 (1809/21H2/22H2), Windows 11 (24H2/25H2/26H1), and Windows Server 2019/2022/2025 - and Microsoft has released a patch. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, so exploitation appears unproven publicly despite the reliably-exploitable nature of kernel UAF flaws.
Local privilege escalation in the Microsoft Windows Kernel (CWE-122 heap-based buffer overflow) allows an authenticated local attacker to gain SYSTEM-level control across a broad range of currently supported Windows client and server releases, from Windows 10 1607 and Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Server 2025. Exploitation grants total confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact (CVSS 3.1 7.8, C:H/I:H/A:H). There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, CISA SSVC lists exploitation as none, and the EPSS score is low at 0.32% (24th percentile), indicating no evidence of active or imminent mass exploitation despite the critical technical impact.
Local privilege escalation in the Microsoft Windows Kernel lets an authenticated low-privileged user exploit a use-after-free (CWE-416) memory corruption flaw to elevate to SYSTEM across a broad range of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server builds. Reported by Microsoft and rated CVSS 7.8, it is not currently in CISA KEV and has no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the EPSS score is low at 0.26% (17th percentile). A vendor patch is available via the MSRC update guide.
Information disclosure in the Windows Network Policy Server (NPS) SNMP component allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to read out-of-bounds memory over the network and disclose sensitive process data. The flaw affects a broad range of Windows client and server releases, from Windows 10 1607 and Windows Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2025. It was reported by Microsoft, a vendor patch is available, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis (not listed in CISA KEV).
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Backup Engine affects a broad range of Windows 10 (21H2, 22H2) and Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1) builds, where a use-after-free (CWE-416) lets an already-authenticated local attacker corrupt memory and gain SYSTEM-level control. Microsoft rates it 7.8 (AV:L/PR:L) with total confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, and a patch is available. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV; EPSS is low at 0.25% (16th percentile).
Denial of service in the Windows Domain Controller role on Windows Server 2025 (including Server Core) and Windows 11 24H2/25H2/26H1 lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker crash or hang authentication services by triggering an untrusted pointer dereference over the network. Because the CVSS vector is PR:N/UI:N with A:H and no confidentiality or integrity impact, a single crafted network exchange can disrupt directory and logon services domain-wide without credentials. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not on CISA KEV; Microsoft has released a patch.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) Service affects all supported Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server builds (2019 through 2025), where a race condition (CWE-362) in access to a shared resource lets an already-authenticated local user win a timing window to gain higher privileges. Microsoft rates it CVSS 7.0 with total technical impact (SSVC), but exploitation requires high attack complexity and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. EPSS is low (0.16%, 5th percentile), consistent with the difficulty of reliably winning the race.
Remote information disclosure in the Microsoft Windows Kernel (CWE-125 out-of-bounds read) lets an unauthenticated attacker read kernel memory over a network, per the CVSS AV:N/PR:N vector, affecting a broad range of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2016 through 2025 builds. The flaw carries high confidentiality impact (C:H) with a minor availability side effect and no integrity impact, scoring CVSS 8.2. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and it is not in CISA KEV, but the network-reachable, no-authentication, no-interaction profile makes it a notable patch priority.
Local privilege escalation in Microsoft Windows (Windows 10 1607 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2012 through 2025) arises from a use-after-free memory-corruption flaw (CWE-416) that lets an already-authenticated local user run code at elevated privilege. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.8 with a scope-changed vector, and Microsoft has shipped a fix via MSRC. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV, so exploitation is currently theoretical rather than observed.
Buffer over-read in the Windows Kernel exposes kernel memory contents to locally authenticated, low-privilege attackers across a broad range of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server releases. The flaw (CWE-126) allows out-of-bounds memory reads within the kernel address space, resulting in high-confidence confidentiality impact with no integrity or availability consequence. No public exploit code has been identified and CISA SSVC assessment confirms no active exploitation at time of analysis, though the wide deployment footprint of affected Windows versions makes prompt patching a sensible priority.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Brokering File System affects Windows 11 24H2/25H2/26H1 and Windows Server 2025, where a use-after-free (CWE-416) lets an already-authenticated local user corrupt memory to elevate to higher privileges (typically SYSTEM). Microsoft has released a patch and rates it 7.8 (High). There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Information disclosure in the Windows Media component of Microsoft Windows (Windows 10 1809/21H2/22H2, Windows 11 24H2/25H2/26H1, and Windows Server 2019/2022/2025) allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to read sensitive information over a network. CVSS 3.1 scores this 7.5 (C:H/I:N/A:N), reflecting a pure confidentiality breach with no integrity or availability impact. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and SSVC rates exploitation as none with partial technical impact; EPSS is a modest 0.58% (44th percentile).
Windows Media in Microsoft Windows exposes sensitive information to locally authenticated standard users, allowing disclosure of data the attacker is not authorized to access. Affected platforms span Windows 10 1607 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 through Server 2025, representing a very broad installed base. No public exploit code has been identified and EPSS at 0.36% (28th percentile) reflects low opportunistic interest, though the local-access requirement is a weaker barrier in shared-access environments such as Remote Desktop Services or VDI deployments.
Denial of service in Microsoft Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to crash the service by sending crafted network input that overflows a stack buffer (CWE-121). Because AD FS commonly fronts single sign-on for Microsoft 365, Azure AD, and federated web applications, an outage cascades into loss of authentication for every relying-party application. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not in CISA KEV; a Microsoft patch is available, and the CVSS 3.1 score is 7.5 (availability-only impact).
Remote code execution in Microsoft's Remote Desktop Client (the RDP client, mstsc.exe, shipped across Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2012 through 2025) allows an unauthorized attacker to run arbitrary code over the network by triggering a use-after-free memory-corruption condition. Exploitation requires the victim to connect to an attacker-controlled or compromised RDP endpoint (UI:R), after which the malicious server can corrupt client-side memory to achieve full code execution. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV; a vendor patch is available from Microsoft.
Local code execution in Microsoft Windows' Resilient File System (ReFS) driver lets an unauthorized attacker run arbitrary code by inducing a victim to mount or open a maliciously crafted ReFS volume (CVE-2026-50362). The flaw affects the ReFS component shipped across Windows 10, Windows 11 (through 26H1), and Windows Server 2016-2025, carries CVSS 7.8, and requires user interaction (UI:R) with no prior authentication (PR:N). Microsoft has released a patch; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Out-of-bounds read in HTTP.sys, the Windows kernel-mode HTTP driver, enables a local low-privileged attacker to disclose sensitive kernel memory contents on Windows 11 and Windows Server 2025. The CVSS vector (AV:L/PR:L) confirms exploitation is strictly local and requires an authenticated session - no remote or unauthenticated attack path exists. Microsoft has released patched builds; no active exploitation has been identified (SSVC Exploitation: none; EPSS 0.41%, 33rd percentile), and this vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Remote code execution in Microsoft Windows Message Queuing (MSMQ) allows an unauthenticated attacker to run arbitrary code over the network by corrupting heap memory. The flaw (CWE-122) carries a CVSS 9.8 and affects a broad range of client and server SKUs from Windows 10 1607 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2012 through Server 2025. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but the network-reachable, no-interaction, no-privilege profile of prior MSMQ bugs (e.g. the 'QueueJumper' class) makes this a top-priority patch. Microsoft has released a fix.
Local privilege escalation to code execution in the Windows NTFS driver (CVE-2026-50417) allows an authenticated attacker with low privileges to corrupt heap memory and run arbitrary code on affected Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2012 through 2025 systems. The flaw is a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) reported by Microsoft, with CVSS 7.8 (High) reflecting local vector, low complexity, and full confidentiality/integrity/availability impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Out-of-bounds read in usbaudio.sys (Windows USB Audio Class driver) exposes kernel memory contents to attackers with physical device access across Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2012 through 2025. An attacker who can physically connect a crafted USB audio device causes the driver to read beyond an allocated buffer, potentially leaking sensitive kernel memory to the attacker. No public exploit exists and no active exploitation has been identified; SSVC rates this as non-automatable with partial technical impact, placing it firmly in the lower-urgency tier despite its wide platform coverage.
Information disclosure in the Windows Quality of Service (QoS) Packet Scheduler component exposes sensitive data to locally authenticated low-privileged users across a wide range of Windows client and server releases. The flaw (CWE-200) allows a local attacker with standard user access to read memory or network-related data that should be restricted to higher-privilege contexts. No public exploit exists and SSVC classifies exploitation as none with partial technical impact, but the breadth of affected Windows versions - from Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Server 2025 - makes patching a broad operational priority.
Local code execution in Microsoft Windows NTFS (New Technology File System) driver arises from a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) that an attacker can trigger by inducing a user to interact with a specially crafted NTFS volume or file. Affecting a broad range of Windows client and server builds from Windows Server 2012/2012 R2 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2025, successful exploitation yields high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.

The vulnerability spans a broad range of supported Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server releases through 2025, making patch prioritization important despite the medium CVSS score. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis, and SSVC classifies this as not automatable with partial technical impact.
Windows File Explorer on a wide range of Microsoft Windows client and server versions exposes sensitive information to locally authenticated standard users, achieving high confidentiality impact without requiring elevated privileges. The flaw (CWE-200) is confined to the local attack surface - CVSS AV:L/PR:L - meaning the attacker must already hold an interactive session on the target system. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing have been identified at time of analysis; a vendor patch is available through Microsoft Security Response Center.
Windows File Explorer exposes sensitive information to low-privileged local authenticated users across a wide range of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server versions. Classified under CWE-200, the flaw enables an attacker already present on a system with standard user rights to access data they should not be permitted to view - no elevation of privilege or remote access is required. No public exploit code has been identified and CISA SSVC confirms no active exploitation, keeping real-world urgency moderate despite the broad affected product surface.
Windows File Explorer across all major Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server releases exposes sensitive information to local authenticated users via a CWE-200 information disclosure flaw. An authorized attacker with low-privilege local access can read data they should not be permitted to access without any user interaction. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC confirms no observed exploitation, placing this squarely in routine patch-cycle priority despite the broad footprint of affected systems.
Windows File Explorer exposes sensitive information to locally authenticated, low-privileged users across a broad range of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server releases. Classified under CWE-200, the flaw allows an authorized local attacker to read data they should not have access to through the File Explorer shell component. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, EPSS sits at 0.36% (28th percentile), and CISA SSVC assesses exploitation as none and not automatable - indicating low urgency despite the high confidentiality impact recorded in the CVSS score.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Runtime (WinRT) component of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server allows an authenticated attacker to run arbitrary code with elevated (SYSTEM-level) privileges by triggering a use-after-free memory-corruption condition (CWE-416). Microsoft has released a patch, but there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not listed in CISA KEV. The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.8 (High) with a fully local vector reflects meaningful post-compromise impact but requires the attacker to already have a foothold on the host.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Ancillary Function Driver for WinSock (AFD.sys) allows an already-authenticated local attacker to gain elevated (SYSTEM-level) privileges across a broad range of Windows client and server releases from Windows 10 1607 and Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Server 2025. Reported internally by Microsoft with a patch available, the flaw carries CVSS 7.8 with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact but no confirmed active exploitation; no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Remote code execution in the Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) Queue Manager affects a broad range of Windows client and server releases, from Windows 10 1607 and Windows Server 2012 through Windows 11 25H2/26H1 and Windows Server 2025. A use-after-free (CWE-416) in the queue manager lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker who can reach the MSMQ service execute arbitrary code with total impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Microsoft has released patches; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the EPSS probability is modest at 0.52%.
Local integrity and availability tampering in the Microsoft Windows DNS component affects Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1) and Windows Server 2025 (including Server Core), where an authorized attacker with low privileges can abuse improper access control to modify DNS data or disrupt the service. Microsoft self-reported the issue and has released a patch. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the flaw is not listed in CISA KEV, so exploitation would currently require local access on an already-compromised or shared host.

Reported by Microsoft with a patch available; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local code execution in the Microsoft Windows NTFS file-system driver lets an attacker run arbitrary code by triggering a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) when Windows parses crafted file-system metadata. The flaw spans a broad range of supported releases, from Windows 10 1607 and Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Server 2025. It carries a CVSS 7.8 (Important) rating, requires user interaction, has a vendor patch available, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) lets an authenticated low-privileged user gain higher privileges on affected Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server systems (Server 2012 through Server 2025). Rooted in insufficient access-control granularity (CWE-1220), a local attacker with a valid session can manipulate WFP to reach SYSTEM-level access. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but Microsoft rates the confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact as High.
