Microsoft Security Response Center

**What kind of security feature could be bypassed by successfully exploiting this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could bypass the Windows Defender detection with a specially crafted file.

**How do I check my Azure Machine Learning Compute Instance runtime version?** To determine your runtime version, make a GET compute rest API call for your compute instance, then check the response. You can find the runtime version from field \*versions.runtime. \* Please view additional details here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azureml/2022-10-01/compute/get?tabs=HTTP **How do I update my Azure Machine Learning Compute Instance runtime version?** Please reference the guidance provided here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azureml/2022-10-01/compute/update?tabs=HTTP

**Is the Preview Pane an attack vector for this vulnerability?** No, the Preview Pane is not an attack vector.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to win a race condition.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to win a race condition.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to win a race condition.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. For example, when the score indicates that the **Attack Vector** is **Local** and **User Interaction** is **Required**, this could describe an exploit in which an attacker, through social engineering, convinces a victim to download and open a specially crafted file from a website which leads to a local attack on their computer.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. This means an attacker or victim needs to execute code from the local machine to exploit the vulnerability.

**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** Exploiting this vulnerability crosses the kernel security boundary and can lead to system information disclosure.

**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain administrator privileges.
