Local privilege escalation in the Windows Desktop Window Manager (DWM) Core Library allows an authenticated low-privilege attacker to gain higher privileges through a use-after-free memory corruption flaw. The vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 7.8 with high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Successful exploitation typically yields SYSTEM-level code execution on the affected Windows host.

Remote code execution in Microsoft Remote Desktop Client is possible when a victim connects to an attacker-controlled RDP server, where a heap-based buffer overflow (linked to use-after-free memory corruption per vendor tags) enables arbitrary code execution on the client machine. The CVSS 7.5 score reflects high attack complexity and required user interaction, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. SSVC assessment from CISA rates exploitation as 'none' and automatable as 'no', though technical impact is total.

Remote code execution in Microsoft Remote Desktop Client arises from a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) that an unauthenticated network attacker can trigger when a victim connects to or interacts with a malicious server. Microsoft (secure@microsoft.com) is the originating reporter and has published an advisory in the MSRC update guide, with no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The CVSS 7.5 (High) rating reflects high attack complexity and required user interaction, but successful exploitation yields full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the client host.

Remote code execution in Microsoft Remote Desktop Client is possible when a user is lured into connecting to an attacker-controlled RDP server, where a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) can be triggered to run arbitrary code on the client machine. The flaw was reported by Microsoft (secure@microsoft.com) and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.5, reflecting high attack complexity and the requirement for user interaction. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not currently listed in CISA KEV.
