Authenticated remote code execution in LSASS
Published Apr 15, 2022 · Updated Jan 2, 2025
Remote code execution in Microsoft Windows LSASS allows remote authenticated users to execute code through a network request. Microsoft has not published the faulty LSASS function, input field, or unsafe operation that makes the request exploitable. Exploitation requires low-privileged credentials, needs no user interaction, and can compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the affected host.
