Active Directory Federation Services Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

Microsoft Windows Ancillary Function Driver for WinSock contains a use-after-free vulnerability that allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows ALPC allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

Improper neutralization of special elements used in a command ('command injection') in Windows Shell allows an unauthorized attacker to bypass a security feature over a network.

Microsoft Windows Shell contains a protection mechanism failure vulnerability that allows an unauthorized attacker to perform spoofing over a network.

A fundamental design flaw within the RADIUS protocol has been proven to be exploitable, compromising the integrity in the RADIUS Access-Request process. The attack allows a malicious user to modify packets in a way that would be indistinguishable to a RADIUS client or server. To be successful, the attacker must have the ability to inject themselves between the client and server.

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that the WinVerifyTrust function handles Windows Authenticode signature verification for PE files.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows NTFS allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code locally.

Improper neutralization in Microsoft Management Console allows an unauthorized attacker to bypass a security feature locally.

Microsoft Management Console Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

Microsoft Windows MSHTML Platform contains an unspecified spoofing vulnerability which can lead to a loss of confidentiality.

Microsoft Windows Remote Access Connection Manager contains a NULL pointer dereference that could allow an unauthorized attacker to deny service locally.

Microsoft Windows Shell contains a protection mechanism failure vulnerability that could allow an unauthorized attacker to bypass a security feature over a network.

Microsoft MSHTML Framework contains a protection mechanism failure vulnerability that could allow an unauthorized attacker to bypass a security feature over a network.

Improper privilege management in Windows Remote Desktop allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

A remote code execution vulnerability exists when the Windows Print Spooler service improperly performs privileged file operations. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. UPDATE July 7, 2021: The security update for Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2016 and Windows 10, Version 1607 have been released. Please see the Security Updates table for the applicable update for your system. We recommend that you install these updates immediately. If you are unable to install these updates, see the FAQ and Workaround sections in this CVE for information on how to help protect your system from this vulnerability. In addition to installing the updates, in order to secure your system, you must confirm that the following registry settings are set to 0 (zero) or are not defined (Note: These registry keys do not exist by default, and therefore are already at the secure setting.), also that your Group Policy setting are correct (see FAQ):

HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Printers\PointAndPrint NoWarningNoElevationOnInstall = 0 (DWORD) or not defined (default setting) UpdatePromptSettings = 0 (DWORD) or not defined (default setting)

Having NoWarningNoElevationOnInstall set to 1 makes your system vulnerable by design. UPDATE July 6, 2021: Microsoft has completed the investigation and has released security updates to address this vulnerability. Please see the Security Updates table for the applicable update for your system. We recommend that you install these updates immediately. If you are unable to install these updates, see the FAQ and Workaround sections in this CVE for information on how to help protect your system from this vulnerability. See also KB5005010: Restricting installation of new printer drivers after applying the July 6, 2021 updates. Note that the security updates released on and after July 6, 2021 contain protections for CVE-2021-1675 and the additional remote code execution exploit in the Windows Print Spooler service known as “PrintNightmare”, documented in CVE-2021-34527.

Microsoft Windows MSHTML Platform contains a user interface (UI) misrepresentation of critical information vulnerability that allows an attacker to spoof a web page. This vulnerability was exploited in conjunction with CVE-2024-38112.

Microsoft Windows Mark of the Web (MOTW) contains a protection mechanism failure vulnerability that allows an attacker to bypass MOTW-based defenses. This can result in a limited loss of integrity and availability of security features such as Protected View in Microsoft Office, which rely on MOTW tagging.

Microsoft Windows Installer contains an improper privilege management vulnerability that could allow an attacker to gain SYSTEM privileges.

Microsoft is investigating reports of a series of remote code execution vulnerabilities impacting Windows and Office products. Microsoft is aware of targeted attacks that attempt to exploit these vulnerabilities by using specially-crafted Microsoft Office documents.

An attacker could create a specially crafted Microsoft Office document that enables them to perform remote code execution in the context of the victim. However, an attacker would have to convince the victim to open the malicious file.

Upon completion of this investigation, Microsoft will take the appropriate action to help protect our customers. This might include providing a security update through our monthly release process or providing an out-of-cycle security update, depending on customer needs.

Please see the Microsoft Threat Intelligence Blog https://aka.ms/Storm-0978  Entry for important information about steps you can take to protect your system from this vulnerability.

This CVE will be updated with new information and links to security updates when they become available.

Microsoft Windows Print Spooler contains an unspecified vulnerability that allows an attacker to gain SYSTEM-level privileges.
