#Security Vulnerability

**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.

Sensitive data storage in improperly locked memory in Windows Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) Device Host allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over an adjacent network.

Missing authentication for critical function in Windows Remote Desktop Licensing Service allows an unauthorized attacker to bypass a security feature over a network.

Access of resource using incompatible type ('type confusion') in Windows SSDP Service allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

Time-of-check time-of-use (toctou) race condition in Windows BitLocker allows an unauthorized attacker to bypass a security feature with a physical attack.

**I am running SQL Server on my system. What action do I need to take?** Update your relevant version of SQL Server. Any applicable driver fixes are included in those updates. **There are GDR and/or CU (Cumulative Update) updates offered for my version of SQL Server. How do I know which update to use?** * First, determine your SQL Server version number. For more information on determining your SQL Server version number, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 321185 - How to determine the version, edition, and update level of SQL Server and its components. * Second, in the table below, locate your version number or the version range that your version number falls within. The corresponding update is the one you need to install. **Note** If your SQL Server version number is not represented in the table below, your SQL Server version is no longer supported. Please upgrade to the latest Service Pack or SQL Server product in order to apply this and future security updates. Update Numb...

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L) while user interaction is required (UI:R). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker can trick a local user on a vulnerable system into mounting a specially crafted VHD that would then trigger the vulnerability.

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R) and privileges required is Low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An authorized attacker with low privileges creates a scheduled task that is set to run when a user logs on and spoofs interfaces that belong to many services so the victim can connect to the attacker's server instead of the original.

Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm in Office Developer Platform allows an authorized attacker to bypass a security feature locally.

**According to the CVSS metric, successful exploitation could lead to a scope change (S:C). What does this mean for this vulnerability?** In this case, a successful attack could be performed from a low privilege AppContainer. The attacker could elevate their privileges and execute code or access resources at a higher integrity level than that of the AppContainer execution environment.
