Authenticated remote code execution
Published Apr 13, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Remote code execution in Microsoft Exchange Server 2013, 2016, and 2019 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code. Microsoft has not published the affected component or the operation that mishandles attacker-controlled input. Exploitation requires authenticated access from an adjacent network and executes code in the Exchange service security context.
