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
Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an authorized attacker to execute code over a network.

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

Heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an authenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via memory corruption. The vulnerability affects the RRAS service which handles network routing, VPN, and remote access functionalities on Windows systems.

MitigationApply the Microsoft security update for CVE-2025-33064 via Windows Update or Microsoft Update Catalog. Test RRAS functionality (routing, VPN, remote access) after patching to ensure continued operation.

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. Verify RRAS service is installed
    Open Services console (services.msc) and look for 'Routing and Remote Access' service, or run 'Get-Service RemoteAccess' in PowerShell
    Affected if RRAS service exists and is in a Started or Stopped state (vulnerability only applies if RRAS is present)
  2. Confirm Windows version
    Run 'winver' or 'systeminfo | findstr /B /C:"OS Name" /C:"OS Version"' to get the exact Windows build number
    Affected if Build number falls below any of these thresholds: 10240.21034 (1507), 14393.8148 (1607), 17763.7434 (1809), 19044.5965 (21h2), 19045.5965 (22h2), 22621.5472 (11 22h2), 22631.5472 (11 23h2), 26100.4270 (11 24h2)
  3. Check if RRAS is enabled or configured
    Run 'netsh routing ip show status' or check RRAS configuration via Routing and Remote Access snap-in (rrasmgmt.msc)
    Affected if RRAS is configured with any routing or VPN functionality (even if currently stopped, presence of configuration indicates potential exposure)
  4. Verify security update installation
    Run 'wmic qfe list' or 'Get-HotFix | Where-Object {$_.Description -like "Security Update"}' and look for KB5002537 or subsequent RRAS-related security patches for CVE-2025-33064
    Affected if No corresponding security update for CVE-2025-33064 is installed and RRAS is present

Environment is affected if RRAS (Routing and Remote Access) is installed and the Windows build number is below the affected version thresholds without the CVE-2025-33064 security update applied.

Interim mitigation

Apply the Microsoft security update for CVE-2025-33064 via Windows Update or Microsoft Update Catalog. Test RRAS functionality (routing, VPN, remote access) after patching to ensure continued operation.

Recommended fix High confidence

Apply the May 2025 Windows security update (KBXXXXXXX) for your specific Windows version - the fixed builds are: Windows 10 1507 to 10.0.10240.21034, Windows 10 1607 to 10.0.14393.8148, Windows 10 1809 to 10.0.17763.7434, Windows 10 21h2 to 10.0.19044.5965, Windows 10 22h2 to 10.0.19045.5965, Window

  1. Identify the current Windows version by running 'winver' or 'systeminfo | findstr /B /C:"OS Name" /C:"OS Version"'
  2. Determine which Windows 10 or 11 release channel you are on (1507, 1607, 1809, 21h2, 22h2, 11 22h2, 11 23h2, or 11 24h2)
  3. Check the installed build number against the fixed version for your release: 10.0.10240.21034 (1507), 10.0.14393.8148 (1607), 10.0.17763.7434 (1809), 10.0.19044.5965 (21h2), 10.0.19045.5965 (22h2), 10.0.22621.5472 (11 22h2), 10.0.22631.5472 (11 23h2), or 10.0.26100.4270 (11 24h2)
  4. If below the fixed version, apply the May 2025 Windows security update via Windows Update or download from Microsoft Update Catalog
  5. Restart the system as prompted after the update is applied
  6. Verify the fix by checking the build number matches or exceeds the fixed version for your release
Caveat No significant breaking changes expected - this is a security patch for RRAS; ensure to back up critical data before any system update as standard practice
