Use after free in Windows Connected Devices Platform Service allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.
**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by tricking a user into sending a request to a malicious server via the Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) Snap-in. This could result in the server returning malicious data that might cause arbitrary code execution on the user's system.
**According to the CVSS score, the attack vector is adjacent (AV:A). What does this mean for this vulnerability?** This attack is limited to systems connected to the same network segment as the attacker. The attack cannot be performed across multiple networks (for example, a WAN) and would be limited to systems on the same network switch or virtual network.
Time-of-check time-of-use (toctou) race condition in Microsoft Windows QoS scheduler allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Win32K - GRFX allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
Missing synchronization in Windows Hyper-V allows an authorized attacker to deny service over an adjacent network.
**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.
Out-of-bounds read in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose information over a network.
Use after free in Microsoft Windows Search Component allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
**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?** Exploitation of this attack requires a local attacker to create arbitrary directories. User interaction is necessary as the attacker relies on an Administrator to run wprui.exe for the first time.
