This vulnerability was not fully resolved by a previous update, prompting the urgency from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). Organizations are advised to follow all recommended actions in Microsoft’s guidance to minimize the risk of cybercriminals gaining remote access with system privileges.
