CVE-2026-35433 is a local elevation-of-privilege vulnerability in the .NET runtime on Windows affecting .NET 8.0, 9.0, and 10.0 prior to the patched releases. The flaw is described as improper input validation and is also associated with an integer overflow or wraparound condition. Publicly available advisory material does not identify the exact vulnerable runtime subcomponent or function. Successful exploitation requires local access and user interaction to trigger the payload in an affected application, after which an attacker can execute within the context of the vulnerable process and potentially escalate privileges to SYSTEM on affected Windows systems.
