Microsoft believes that the vulnerability is more likely to be exploited because Keberos is present on many popular operating systems.

Another important issue is CVE-2024-20700, which allows for remote code execution in Windows Hyper-V. An attacker needs to win a race condition and gain access to a restricted network for the exploit to work.

Two more remote code execution vulnerabilities are important: CVE-2024-21307 in Windows Remote Desktop Client and CVE-2024-21318 in SharePoint Server.

CVE-2024-21307 is a vulnerability that can be exploited when an authenticated user connects to a malicious remote desktop server. The server sends a specially designed Server RDP Preconnection that targets the remote client’s drive redirection virtual channel. This can result in remote code execution on the victim’s machine.

CVE-2024-21318 can be exploited by attackers with relative ease. They only need to write and inject specific code to SharePoint Server.
The Windows Kernel has a vulnerability called CVE-2024-20698, which allows an attacker to gain SYSTEM privileges. There are no details on how the attacker can exploit this vulnerability.

A complete list of all the other vulnerabilities Microsoft disclosed this month is available on its update page.
