A Windows kernel elevation-of-privilege vulnerability affecting Microsoft Windows. The flaw is confirmed to have been exploited in the wild and has been described as requiring an attacker to win a race condition to successfully trigger the vulnerability. It has also been used as a sandbox escape in post-compromise activity, indicating exploitation occurs in the kernel security boundary and can be leveraged after initial code execution in a constrained context. Specific vulnerable functions or root-cause details are not currently available in the provided information.
