CVE-2024-26178: Windows Kernel Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

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

CVE-2024-21432: Windows Update Stack Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

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

CVE-2024-21431: Hypervisor-Protected Code Integrity (HVCI) Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability

**What kind of security feature could be bypassed by successfully exploiting this vulnerability?** A hypervisor-protected code integrity (HVCI) security feature bypass vulnerability could exist when Windows incorrectly allows certain kernel-mode pages to be marked as Read, Write, Execute (RWX) even with HVCI enabled. To exploit this vulnerability an attacker could run a specially crafted script at administrator level that exploits a signed driver to bypass code integrity protections in Windows.

CVE-2024-21435: Windows OLE Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N) and the user interaction is required (UI:R). What is the target context of the remote code execution?** This attack requires a specially crafted file to be placed either in an online directory or in a local network location. When a victim runs this file, it loads the malicious DLL.

CVE-2024-21434: Microsoft Windows SCSI Class System File Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

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

CVE-2024-21407: Windows Hyper-V Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

**How would an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** This vulnerability would require an authenticated attacker on a guest VM to send specially crafted file operation requests on the VM to hardware resources on the VM which could result in remote code execution on the host server.

CVE-2024-21433: Windows Print Spooler Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

**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.
