CVE-2024-49105: Remote Desktop Client Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker could exploit the vulnerability by triggering remote code execution (RCE) on the server via a Remote Desktop connection. Alternatively, an authenticated attacker could trigger guest-to-host RCE via a malicious program by connecting to the host using MMC.

CVE-2024-49128: Windows Remote Desktop Services Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An attacker could successfully exploit this vulnerability by connecting to a system with the Remote Desktop Gateway role, triggering the race condition to create a use-after-free scenario, and then leveraging this to execute arbitrary code.

CVE-2024-49127: Windows Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to win a race condition.

CVE-2024-49116: Windows Remote Desktop Services Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to win a race condition during the execution of a specific operation that recurs in a low frequency on the target system. This might require an attacker to invest a significant amount of time to exploit the vulnerability if the race condition is not won.

CVE-2024-49112: Windows Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An unauthenticated attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain code execution through a specially crafted set of LDAP calls to execute arbitrary code within the context of the LDAP service.
