It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2017-11831 exists.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 10. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-11831/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-11831/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-11831","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-11831/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-11831","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-93fq-ggx4-97cm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can exploit a Windows kernel memory initialization flaw to disclose information and potentially escalate privileges on affected systems.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"windows_10","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_7","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_8.1","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_rt_8.1","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2008","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2012","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2016","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":4.7,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"Windows kernel in Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1 and RT 8.1, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, Windows Server 2012 and R2, Windows 10 Gold, 1511, 1607, 1703, 1709, Windows Server 2016, and Windows Server, version 1709 allows an attacker to log on to an affected system, and run a specially crafted application that can compromise the user's system due to how the Windows kernel initializes memory, aka \"Windows Information Disclosure Vulnerability\".
