CVE-2026-32083: CWE-362: Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') in Microsoft Windows 10 Version 1607
Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Windows SSDP Service allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves a race condition (CWE-362) in the Windows SSDP Service on Windows 10 Version 1607. Improper synchronization during concurrent execution of shared resources enables a local attacker with limited privileges to elevate their privileges. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates local attack vector, high attack complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, unchanged scope, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Microsoft has published an official fix for this vulnerability.
Potential Impact
An authorized local attacker can exploit this race condition to elevate privileges on the affected Windows 10 Version 1607 system. This could lead to full system compromise, including unauthorized access to sensitive data and disruption of system operations. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Microsoft has released an official fix for this vulnerability. It is recommended to apply the security update provided by Microsoft as soon as possible. Since this is not a cloud service, remediation depends on patching the affected Windows 10 Version 1607 systems.
