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.

NVD · unedited
Out-of-bounds read in Windows Storage Management Provider allows an authorized attacker to disclose information locally.

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 confidence

This is an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the Windows Storage Management Provider, a Windows component responsible for managing storage devices and volumes. The flaw allows a local, authorized (authenticated) attacker to read memory beyond intended boundaries, potentially exposing sensitive information from kernel memory. This is a local information disclosure vulnerability with low confidentiality impact.

MitigationApply the relevant Microsoft security patch when released. In the interim, restrict local access to trusted users only and monitor for unusual access patterns to the Windows Storage Management Provider.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check Windows build version
    Open Command Prompt and run 'winver' or 'systeminfo | findstr "Build"' to obtain the full OS build number (for example, 19045.5965)
    Affected if The build number is lower than the fixed version for your specific Windows release as listed in the CVE affected versions
  2. Identify exact Windows release
    Run 'winver' to determine if you are on Windows 10 1809, 21h2, 22h2; Windows 11 22h2, 23h2, 24h2; Windows Server 2016 or Windows Server 2019
    Affected if Your Windows release matches any of the affected products listed in the CVE
  3. Compare against fixed version thresholds
    Consult the CVE affected versions list and compare: Windows 10 1809 must be >= 10.0.17763.7434, 21h2 >= 10.0.19044.5965, 22h2 >= 10.0.19045.5965; Windows 11 22h2 >= 10.0.22621.5472, 23h2 >= 10.0.22631.5472, 24h2 >= 10.0.26100.4270; Server 2016 >= 10.0.14393.8148; Server 2019 >= 10.0.17763.7434
    Affected if Your installed version is less than the required fixed version for your Windows release
  4. Confirm Storage Management Provider is present
    The Windows Storage Management Provider is a built-in Windows component for storage device management; verify it exists by checking for the 'StorageManagement' service or module in PowerShell with 'Get-Command *StorageManagement*' or via services.msc
    Affected if The Storage Management Provider component is present on the system and the OS version is vulnerable

A system is affected if it runs any Windows 10, Windows 11, or Windows Server version with a build number lower than the threshold specified for that release in the CVE, and the Storage Management Provider component is present.

Recommended fix High confidence

Windows 10 1809: build 10.0.17763.7434 | Windows 10 21h2: build 10.0.19044.5965 | Windows 10 22h2: build 10.0.19045.5965 | Windows 11 22h2: build 10.0.22621.5472 | Windows 11 23h2: build 10.0.22631.5472 | Windows 11 24h2: build 10.0.26100.4270 | Windows Server 2016: build 10.0.14393.8148 | Windows S

  1. Identify the current Windows version and build by running 'winver' or 'systeminfo | findstr /B /C:"OS Name" /C:"OS Version"'
  2. Open Settings > Windows Update (or WSUS for enterprise environments)
  3. Check for and install all pending Windows security updates
  4. Verify the update was applied by checking the build number matches or exceeds the fixed version for your Windows release
  5. Restart the system if prompted to complete the installation
Caveat Standard Windows update process with no expected service disruptions; typical update caveats apply (backup critical data before updating)
