CVE-2025-21323

Kernel-memory disclosure via sensitive log entries

Published Jan 14, 2025 · Updated Jun 9, 2026

Information disclosure in the Windows kernel allows local users with low privileges to read sensitive kernel memory through log output. The published CWE mapping shows that the kernel places sensitive information in a log file, but Microsoft has not identified the logging path, record format, or exposed data. Successful access requires local low-privileged execution; the reported consequence excludes integrity and availability impact.
