CVE-2025-58734
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 · uneditedUse after free in Inbox COM Objects allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code 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 confidenceA use-after-free vulnerability in Inbox COM Objects allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code locally on the target system. The vulnerability stems from improper memory management where memory is accessed after being freed, leading to potential code execution through controlled memory corruption.

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.
-
Identify Windows version and build numberRun 'winver' from command prompt or 'systeminfo' and note the OS Name and OS Version/Build numberAffected if The build number falls below the affected thresholds: 10.0.10240.21161 (1507), 10.0.14393.8519 (1607), 10.0.17763.7919 (1809), 10.0.19044.6456 (21h2), 10.0.19045.6456 (22h2), 10.0.22621.6060 (11 22h2), 10.0.22631.6060 (11 23h2), or 10.0.26100.6899 (11 24h2)
-
Confirm Windows 10 release versionRun 'winver' or check Settings > System > About to identify the specific Windows 10 release (1507, 1607, 1809, 21h2, or 22h2)Affected if The installed Windows 10 version matches any of the affected releases listed in the CVE and the build number is below the corresponding patch threshold
-
Confirm Windows 11 release versionRun 'winver' or check Settings > System > About to identify the Windows 11 release (22h2, 23h2, or 24h2)Affected if The installed Windows 11 version matches 22h2, 23h2, or 24h2 and the build number is below the corresponding patch threshold for that release
You are affected if your Windows version and build number match any of the affected Windows 10 or Windows 11 releases listed with a build number below the specified threshold.
