Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-08 20:27 – Updated: 2026-09-08 20:27Summary
Use after free in Microsoft QUIC allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.
Details
New network path creations and removals triggered by incoming packets can lead to a pointer invalidation.
Patches
- Guard path promotion e0f55b5
Impact
An unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted packet to an affected service over the network. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to execute code on the target system. No authentication or user interaction is required.
