CVE-2026-33827: 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 TCP/IP allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves a race condition (CWE-362) in the TCP/IP implementation of Windows 10 Version 1607, which can be exploited by an attacker to execute arbitrary code remotely without requiring user interaction or privileges. The flaw arises from concurrent execution using shared resources without proper synchronization, enabling code execution over the network. Microsoft has published an official fix to address this issue.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows remote code execution with high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. An attacker can run arbitrary code on the affected system remotely, potentially leading to full system compromise. No known exploits in the wild have been reported at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
An official fix is available from Microsoft.
