About Elevation of Privilege – Windows Hyper-V NT Kernel Integration VSP (CVE-2025-21333, CVE-2025-21334, CVE-2025-21335) vulnerability. These three vulnerabilities were disclosed as part of Microsoft’s January Patch Tuesday and share the same description. They were found in a component used for communications between the host OS and container-type virtual machines, such as Windows Sandbox and Microsoft Defender Application Guard (MDAG).
If the vulnerabilities are successfully exploited, an attacker can gain System privileges. Microsoft specifically notes that this is a local privilege escalation on the host system, not any type of guest to host escape.
👾 These vulnerabilities are being actively exploited in the wild, though no public exploits are currently available.
The only difference in the vulnerability descriptions is that CVE-2025-21333 is caused by Heap-based Buffer Overflow, while CVE-2025-21334 and CVE-2025-21335 are caused by Use After Free.
