CVE-2024-38106 is a Windows Kernel elevation-of-privilege vulnerability caused by improperly synchronized access to kernel memory containing sensitive data. A local attacker who wins the resulting race condition can access the memory in an unsafe state and elevate privileges. The vulnerability was actively exploited in the wild, including as a Windows sandbox-escape component in a Chromium exploitation chain that deployed the FudModule rootkit.
