Adjacent information disclosure via integer underflow
Published Aug 11, 2026 · Updated Aug 25, 2026
Integer underflow in Windows DHCP Server in affected Microsoft Windows releases allows remote attackers to read memory contents over an adjacent network. Microsoft's CVE record maps the flaw to CWE-191 and CWE-125, indicating an arithmetic wraparound that leads to an out-of-bounds read on network-supplied DHCP data; Microsoft has not published the specific function or field involved. Exposure is limited to systems running the DHCP Server role and reachable from the local network segment, and the published impact is confidentiality only.
