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

A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the Windows Sensor Data Service where memory is accessed after being freed, allowing a locally authorized attacker to elevate privileges to higher permission levels.

MitigationApply the relevant Microsoft security patch for Windows Sensor Data Service through Windows Update or enterprise patch management to remediate the 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 checks

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

  1. Check Windows version against affected ranges
    Run 'winver' or 'systeminfo' from command prompt and note the Windows build number shown (e.g., 10.0.14393.x for Windows 10 1607/Server 2016, 10.0.17763.x for Windows 10 1809, etc.). Compare your build number to the minimum fixed versions: 14393.9339, 17763.9020, 19044.7548, 19045.7548, 26100.8875, 26200.8875, 28000.2269.
    Affected if Your Windows build number is LOWER than the corresponding threshold for your Windows version (10 1607/Server 2016 < 14393.9339, 10 1809 < 17763.9020, 10 21h2 < 19044.7548, 10 22h2 < 19045.7548, 11 24h2 < 26100.8875, 11 25h2 < 26200.8875, 11 26h1 < 28000.2269)
  2. Verify Windows Sensor Data Service presence
    Open Services console (services.msc) or run 'sc query SensorService' from an elevated command prompt to check if the Windows Sensor Data Service exists on the system.
    Affected if The Windows Sensor Data Service (SensorService) is installed and present on the system
  3. Confirm Sensor Data Service status
    Run 'sc query SensorService' or check the service status in services.msc to determine if the service is currently running.
    Affected if The Windows Sensor Data Service is currently running (even if not actively used by the user, the vulnerable code path exists when the service is active)

You are affected if your Windows version/build falls within any of the affected ranges listed AND the Windows Sensor Data Service is present on your system, since the use-after-free vulnerability exists in that specific service component.
