Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-56197 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows Admin Center. 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-2026-56197/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-56197/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-56197","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-56197/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-56197","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x23w-f7cc-jghm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows Admin Center","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authorized attacker can execute arbitrary code remotely via command injection in Windows Admin Center.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"windows_admin_center","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"}],"description":"Improper neutralization of special elements used in a command ('command injection') in Windows Admin Center allows an authorized attacker to execute code over a network.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Windows Admin Center (WAC) Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-56197","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Microsoft Trace Data Helper Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-56198"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Windows Admin Center (WAC) Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-56196"},"products":["Windows Admin Center"],"published":"2026-07-14","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft 365 Admin Center Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-62873","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Windows Admin Center","id":"CVE-2019-0813","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Windows Admin Center (WAC) Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-56196","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Windows Admin Center in Azure Portal Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-41086","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-12"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Windows Admin Center Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-26119","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-17"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Windows Admin Center Spoofing Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-29347","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-07-11"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-28","vendors":["Microsoft"]},"summary":"An authorized attacker can execute arbitrary code remotely via command injection in Windows Admin Center.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-56197/"}
