Local privilege escalation via out-of-bounds read
Published Jul 9, 2024 · Updated Feb 10, 2026
Out-of-bounds read in Windows Remote Access Connection Manager allows local users to elevate privileges on affected Windows systems. Microsoft identifies the weakness class but has not disclosed the affected routine, buffer, untrusted input, or erroneous read operation. A low-privileged local account is required, and successful exploitation elevates access beyond the account's existing permissions.
