User-assisted privilege elevation
Published Oct 8, 2024 · Updated Aug 19, 2026
Privilege elevation in Microsoft Outlook for Android before 4.2435.2 allows remote authenticated users to disclose sensitive data. Microsoft identifies insufficient granularity of access control but has not disclosed the affected component or operation that grants overly broad access. Exploitation requires existing low privileges and user interaction; Microsoft's assessment reports no integrity or availability impact.
