Local security feature bypass
Published Apr 9, 2024 · Updated May 3, 2025
Security feature bypass in Windows Cryptographic Services allows local users to compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Microsoft has not published the affected function, data format, or cryptographic verification error, so the wrong operation on untrusted input is undisclosed. Exploitation requires local low-privileged access and can expose or alter protected data or interrupt service.
