It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2025-62215 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2025-62215 is a high-severity vulnerability in Microsoft Windows 10 1809, published on 11 Nov 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2025-62215 in the wild since at least 12 Nov 2025.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 10 1809. 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-2025-62215/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-62215/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-62215","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-62215/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-62215","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hr5f-g8f8-p354"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows Kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Windows Kernel allows an authorized local attacker to elevate privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"windows_10_1809","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_21h2","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_22h2","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_11_23h2","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_11_24h2","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_11_25h2","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2019","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2022","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2022_23h2","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2025","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:F/RL:O/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-415","name":"Double Free"},{"id":"CWE-362","name":"Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Windows Kernel allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2025-11-18","github_poc":7,"max_poc_stars":21,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2025-11-18T16:12:44Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/abrewer251/CVE-2025-62215_Windows_Kernel_PE","stars":21,"title":"This PoC demonstrates a race condition in the Windows kernel leading to a double-free vulnerability, allowing local privilege escalation to SYSTEM.
