Impact
An out‑of‑bounds write in the RPC Runtime component enables an attacker with network access to trigger remote code execution on affected Windows systems. The flaw allows arbitrary code to be written beyond the intended buffer, leading to full system compromise. This weakness is classified as CWE‑787.
Affected Systems
The vulnerability affects a wide range of Microsoft Windows releases, including Windows 10 versions 1607, 1809, 21H2, and 22H2; Windows 11 versions 23H2, 24H2, 25H2, 26H2, 23H2 (arm64), 26H1; as well as Windows Server editions 2012, 2012 R2, 2016, 2019, 2022, and 2025 (both standard and Server Core). All listed builds are vulnerable, with no specific sub‑version exclusions noted.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 9.8 indicates critical severity. The EPSS score is not available, and the issue is not yet listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers can exploit the flaw remotely over the network by compromising the RPC interface; no special user privileges are required. Given the high CVSS and the potential for complete system takeover, the risk is substantial and demands urgent action.
