CVE-2025-59230 is an elevation-of-privilege vulnerability in Windows Remote Access Connection Manager (RasMan) caused by improper access control. The flaw affects the RasMan RPC interface and can be abused by a local authorized attacker to hijack or spoof the service interface, including through Endpoint Mapper poisoning scenarios described for the RasMan RPC endpoint implemented in rasmans.dll. Successful exploitation can cause privileged components to interact with an attacker-controlled endpoint, resulting in escalation from a local user context to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. Microsoft reported the vulnerability as exploited in the wild and patched it in October 2025.
