Impact

An out‑of‑bounds read occurs in the Windows Bluetooth Port Driver, enabling an attacker with local, authorized access to read sensitive data. The vulnerability is a classic bounds‑checking flaw (CWE-125) that can leak memory content but does not provide remote code execution or denial of service.

Affected Systems

Microsoft Windows 10 versions 21H2 and 22H2, Windows 11 versions 23H2, 24H2, 25H2, and 26H1, and Microsoft Windows Server 2022 and 2025 installations, including both server core and full editions, are affected.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 4.7 the risk is moderate and the attack vector is local only; an attacker must already have authorized local privileges. The EPSS score is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, indicating no confirmed large‑scale exploitation at this time.
