Back Cisecurity Critical Patches Issued for Microsoft Products, November 11, 2025
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Microsoft products, the most severe of which could allow for remote code execution. Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could result in an attacker gaining the same privileges as the logged-on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.
Microsoft indicates that exploitation of a Windows Kernel elevation of privilege vulnerability has been detected (CVE-2025-62215).
