CVE-2026-69603
HighCVSS 8.8Summary
Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Hyper-V allows an authorized attacker to execute code locally.
Risk Assessment
An attacker with local access could execute arbitrary code, potentially leading to system takeover or breaking virtual machine isolation.
Recommendation
Apply security patches for Hyper-V and restrict local access to the system.
