AI-suggested

1. Upgrade affected systems to a supported and fully patched version of Windows 10 or later, as Windows 10 Version 1507 is out of support and unlikely to receive patches. 2. Restrict local user privileges to the minimum necessary to reduce the risk of privilege escalation. 3. Implement application whitelisting and endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions to detect anomalous behavior related to privilege escalation attempts. 4. Monitor Windows Push Notifications service activity and audit logs for unusual access patterns or errors indicative of exploitation attempts. 5. Employ network segmentation and access controls to limit local access to critical systems, reducing the attack surface. 6. Educate users and administrators about the risks of running unsupported operating system versions and encourage timely updates. 7. Prepare incident response plans to quickly contain and remediate any detected exploitation attempts. 8. If upgrading is not immediately possible, consider disabling or restricting the Windows Push Notifications service where feasible to reduce exposure.

Description

Access of resource using incompatible type ('type confusion') in Windows Push Notifications allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
