Adjacent-network denial of service via out-of-bounds read
Published Jul 9, 2024 · Updated Feb 10, 2026
An out-of-bounds read in Microsoft's Windows Layer-2 Bridge Network Driver allows attackers to interrupt affected Windows systems. The published record identifies the driver and weakness class but does not disclose the affected routine, packet field, or invalid read operation. Exploitation requires adjacent-network access but no authentication or user interaction; the bounded impact is loss of availability, with no confidentiality or integrity impact.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
