Local code execution in the Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI) component affects a broad range of Windows client and server releases from Windows Server 2012 through Windows 11 25H2/26H1 and Server 2025. An attacker who convinces a user to open a maliciously crafted file or content triggers a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) in GDI, running arbitrary code in the victim's context with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is very low (0.06%), and CISA SSVC records no known exploitation, so this is a patch-on-cycle item rather than an emergency.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Kernel affects a broad range of Windows Server releases (2012 through 2025, including Server Core installations), where a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) lets an already-authenticated local user corrupt kernel heap memory to gain SYSTEM-level privileges. Microsoft has released patches and rates it CVSS 7.8; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and CISA's SSVC framework marks exploitation as none but technical impact as total. EPSS is very low (0.04%, 13th percentile), consistent with the local-only attack vector that requires prior code execution on the host.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Cloud Files Mini Filter Driver (cldflt.sys) lets an already-authenticated low-privileged user corrupt kernel memory via a use-after-free and gain SYSTEM-level control across supported Windows 10, Windows 11 (through 26H1) and Windows Server 2019-2025 builds. Microsoft has released fixes; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS risk is very low (0.04%), and it is not listed in CISA KEV. Despite 'Denial Of Service' tagging, the CVSS vector rates full confidentiality, integrity and availability impact, consistent with a kernel EoP.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Win32K kernel-mode subsystem (ICOMP component) lets an already-authenticated low-privileged attacker gain SYSTEM-level control across a broad range of supported Windows client and server builds. The flaw is a type-confusion (CWE-843) memory-corruption issue reported by Microsoft; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the EPSS probability is low (0.11%), but SSVC rates the technical impact as total. This is a standard Patch-Tuesday-class kernel EoP whose value is as the second stage of an intrusion after an attacker already has a foothold.

Local privilege escalation in Microsoft Windows Projected File System (ProjFS) allows an authorized, low-privileged local user to win a synchronization race condition and gain elevated privileges on the host. Exploitation requires prior local authenticated access (CVSS PR:L, AV:L) and depends on ProjFS being active, with no user interaction needed; the AC:H rating and SSVC 'Automatable: no' indicate the race is timing-sensitive and not reliably repeatable. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, EPSS is very low (0.04%, 12th percentile), and SSVC records Exploitation as 'none', so this is a genuine but not top-tier priority; a vendor patch is available.

Local privilege escalation in the Windows Speech Brokered API allows an attacker who already holds a low-privileged local session to elevate to higher integrity on supported Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server builds. Exploitation hinges on winning a race window in an improperly synchronized shared resource (CWE-362), which the assessed vector rates as high-complexity and non-automatable, so reliable exploitation typically requires repeated local attempts rather than a single deterministic trigger. There is no remote vector and no user interaction; at time of analysis there is no public exploit identified, EPSS is very low at 0.04% (12th percentile), and CISA SSVC records Exploitation: none, though technical impact is rated total.

Local privilege escalation in Windows Push Notifications allows an authenticated attacker with a low-privileged account to gain elevated privileges by winning a race condition in the notification component. The vulnerability affects numerous Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server versions (see affected products), and while it has a high CVSS score of 7.8, the attack complexity is high (AC:H) and requires local access (AV:L) with low privileges (PR:L), meaning the attacker must already have a foothold on the system. EPSS is low at 0.05%, no public exploit code is known, and CISA SSVC indicates no known exploitation, so this is a non-urgent patching priority.
Type confusion in Windows OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) enables authenticated local attackers to escalate privileges across all supported Windows 10, 11, and Server versions (2012-2025). The memory corruption flaw allows low-privileged users to execute code with elevated permissions through incompatible type handling. Vendor-released patches are available for all affected versions.
