CVE-2024-30014
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceWindows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) contains a remote code execution vulnerability. RRAS is a Windows server role that enables routing and remote access capabilities. An unauthenticated attacker could send specially crafted network packets to exploit this vulnerability and execute arbitrary code on the affected system.
Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify RRAS role is installedOn Windows Server, open Server Manager > Manage > Add Roles and Features, look for 'Remote Access' role. On Windows 10/11, check Programs and Features > Turn Windows features on or off > look for 'Routing and Remote Access' (RRAS).Affected if RRAS role or feature is installed on the system
-
Confirm RRAS service statusOpen Services console (services.msc) and check the 'Routing and Remote Access' service. Run 'sc query RemoteAccess' in Command Prompt.Affected if The RemoteAccess service is running or set to start automatically
-
Check Windows version against affected rangesRun 'winver' or 'systeminfo | findstr /B /C:"OS Name" /C:"OS Version"' to obtain the exact build number. Compare against the vulnerable version thresholds: Windows 10 1507 < 10.0.10240.20651, 1607 < 10.0.14393.6981, 1809 < 10.0.17763.5820, 21h2 < 10.0.19044.4412, 22h2 < 10.0.19045.4412; Windows 11 21h2 < 10.0.22000.2960, 22h2 < 10.0.22621.3593, 23h2 < 10.0.22631.3593.Affected if The installed Windows build number falls below the fixed version for that specific release
-
Verify network exposure of RRASCheck RRAS configuration in Routing and Remote Access snap-in (rrasmgmt.msc) or via 'netsh routing ip show interface'. Determine if RRAS is bound to external-facing network adapters.Affected if RRAS is configured and bound to network interfaces accessible from untrusted networks
The system is affected if RRAS is installed and running on a vulnerable Windows version (build below the fixed threshold) and the system is network-accessible.
