CVE-2005-4697
The Microsoft Wireless Zero Configuration system (WZCS) allows local users to access WEP keys and pair-wise Master Keys (PMK) of the WPA pre-shared key via certain calls to the WZCQueryInterface API function in wzcsapi.dll.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.91%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
