An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run processes in an elevated context. However, an attacker must first gain access to the local system with the ability to execute a malicious application in order to exploit this vulnerability.\nThe security update addresses the vulnerability by changing how ndis.sys validates buffer length.","published":"2026-10-13T19:17:57.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-27T18:45:27.000Z","status":"Analyzed","sourceIdentifier":"secure@microsoft.com","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":8.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-125"],"affected":["microsoft/windows 10 1607","microsoft/windows 10 1809","microsoft/windows 10 21h2","microsoft/windows 10 22h2","microsoft/windows 11 23h2","microsoft/windows 11 24h2","microsoft/windows 11 25h2","microsoft/windows 11 26h1","microsoft/windows 11 26h2","microsoft/windows server 2012","microsoft/windows server 2016","microsoft/windows server 2019","microsoft/windows server 2022","microsoft/windows server 2025"],"epss":{"score":0.00869,"percentile":0.58507,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[{"date":"2026-10-14","score":0.00767,"percentile":0.54525}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.87%).
