The incomplete patch is the latest gaffe involving the PrintNightmare vulnerability. “Dealing with strings & filenames is hard,” Benjamin Delpy, a developer of the hacking and network utility Mimikatz and other software, wrote on Twitter.īuried near the bottom of Microsoft's advisory from Tuesday is the following: "Point and Print is not directly related to this vulnerability, but the technology weakens the local security posture in such a way that exploitation will be possible." A tragedy of gaffes

Microsoft said the update “fully addresses the public vulnerability.” But on Wednesday-a little more than 12 hours after the release-a researcher showed how exploits could bypass the patch.

“It's the biggest deal I've dealt with in a very long time,” said Will Dormann, a senior vulnerability analyst at the CERT Coordination Center, a nonprofit, United States federally funded project that researches software bugs and works with business and government to improve security. In either case, the adversaries can then gain control of the domain controller, which as the server that authenticates local users, is one of the most security-sensitive assets on any Windows network. Attackers can also use it to escalate system privileges once they’ve used a different vulnerability to gain a toe-hold inside of a vulnerable network. A big dealĪttackers can exploit it remotely when print capabilities are exposed to the Internet. Researchers track the vulnerability as CVE-2021-34527. Proof-of-concept exploit code was publicly released and then pulled back, but not before others had copied it.

The threat, colloquially known as PrintNightmare, stems from bugs in the Windows print spooler, which provides printing functionality inside local networks.

While this thread is timed to coincide with Microsoft's Patch Tuesday, feel free to discuss any patches, updates, and releases, regardless of the company or product. We do this both to keep clutter out of the subreddit, and provide you, the dear reader, a singular resource to read.įor those of you who wish to review prior Megathreads, you can do so here. We put this thread into place to help gather all the information about this month's updates: What is fixed, what broke, what got released and should have been caught in QA, etc. This is the ( mostly) safe location to talk about the latest patches, updates, and releases. Seems like u/AutoModerator took the day off today :)
