AI-suggested
To mitigate CVE-2025-49722, European organizations should prioritize upgrading from Windows 10 Version 1507 to a supported and patched Windows version to eliminate the vulnerable component. In environments where immediate upgrade is not feasible, network segmentation should be implemented to restrict access to print spooler services only to trusted devices and users. Disable the print spooler service on systems where printing is not required, especially on servers and critical infrastructure. Employ firewall rules to block print spooler traffic (typically TCP ports 139 and 445) from untrusted or less secure network segments. Monitor print spooler service performance and logs for signs of resource exhaustion or unusual activity. Implement strict access controls and least privilege principles to limit the ability of users to interact with print spooler components. Consider deploying endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions capable of detecting anomalous resource consumption patterns. Finally, maintain awareness of vendor advisories for patches or updates addressing this vulnerability and apply them promptly once available.
Description
Uncontrolled resource consumption in Windows Print Spooler Components allows an authorized attacker to deny service over an adjacent network.
