Local information disclosure via out-of-bounds read
Published Aug 13, 2024 · Updated Jul 10, 2025
An out-of-bounds read in Security Center Broker in affected Microsoft Windows releases allows local users to disclose sensitive memory contents. Microsoft has not disclosed the affected code locus, the input that triggers the over-read, or which adjacent memory can be returned. Exploitation requires local low-privilege access and can expose confidential data, with no reported ability to modify data or interrupt service.
