**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.

Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Windows Kernel allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

No cwe for this issue in Windows Administrator Protection allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

Insertion of sensitive information into log file in Windows License Manager allows an authorized attacker to disclose information locally.

Buffer over-read in Windows TDX.sys allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability?** With successful exploitation of this vulnerability, an attacker could gain elevated privileges equivalent to a system managed administrator, allowing them to execute arbitrary code with high integrity and bypass administrator protections.

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

Insertion of sensitive information into log file in Windows License Manager allows an authorized attacker to disclose information locally.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N), user interaction is required (UI:R), and privileges required are none (PR:N). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploitation of this vulnerability requires an unauthorized attacker to wait for a user to initiate a connection to a malicious server that the attacker has set up prior to the user connecting.
