Published Nov 10, 2026 · Updated Nov 10, 2026

Summary

Impact: Information Disclosure. Microsoft rating: Important. Not known to be exploited — Exploitation Less Likely. Customer action: Required.

Details

What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?
An attacker running in a restricted app environment could view portions of private image data previously handled by the thumbnail service outside that environment. The vulnerability does not provide unrestricted access to arbitrary files or credentials.

According to the CVSS metric, attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?
Successful exploitation requires the thumbnail service to have processed private image data and later reuse related memory for the attacker's thumbnail request. The attacker cannot assume that this combination of prior activity and memory reuse will occur.
