Client-side code execution via numeric truncation
Published May 14, 2024 · Updated May 3, 2025
Numeric truncation in RRAS on affected Microsoft Windows releases allows remote attackers to execute code through a malicious server. Microsoft classifies the flaw as CWE-197 but has not disclosed the affected parser, field, or truncating conversion. Exploitation requires the target client to connect to an attacker-controlled server, after which code runs in the client's security context.
