CVE-2025-21376Network attack vector

Remote code execution via LDAP memory corruption

Published Feb 11, 2025 · Updated Feb 26, 2026

Remote code execution in Windows LDAP allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending crafted requests to an LDAP server. Microsoft identifies a race condition, integer underflow, and heap-based buffer overflow but does not disclose the affected function or faulty operation. Exploitation requires network access to an LDAP server and race-condition timing, without authentication or user interaction.
