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-2026-45585 exists.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 11 24h2. 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-2026-45585/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45585/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-45585","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45585/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-45585","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2h24-8rjh-qgjv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows BitLocker","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass BitLocker encryption to access data on stolen or compromised Windows devices, requiring immediate mitigation or patching.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"windows_11_24h2","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_11_25h2","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_11_26h1","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2025","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:W/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"}],"description":"Microsoft is aware of a security feature bypass vulnerability in Windows publicly referred to as \u0026quot;YellowKey\u0026quot;.

For example, if your organization’s employees take their work devices home or on business travel.\nWhat impact to service availability/management could be caused by implementing the mitigations?\nImplementing these mitigations will not impact service availability or management operations.\nDo customers need to revert the changes made to mitigate the vulnerability once the security update to protect against this vulnerability is available?\nNo. The security update will maintain the mitigation's behavior once the security update is installed.\nI am using TPM+PIN, am I at risk of this vulnerability being exploited\nNo, if you are using TPM+PIN the vulnerability is not exploitable.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-05-20","github_poc":12,"max_poc_stars":11,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-06-16T07:21:36Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Desireeontrial76/yellowkey-bitlocker","stars":11,"title":"Manage and recover BitLocker encrypted drives with this tool for Windows 11 recovery key management and educational study of CVE-2026-45585."},{"date":"2026-05-24T05:26:15Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/andrei-majer/bitlocker-hardening","stars":6,"title":"BitLocker TPM+PIN Hardening Against CVE-2026-45585 (YellowKey)"},{"date":"2026-05-21T20:24:46Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/everest90909/YellowKey-WinRE-Remediation","stars":1,"title":"Intune Remediation package for the CVE-2026-45585 YellowKey BitLocker/WinRE bypass mitigation described in the provided procedure.
