#Role: Windows Hyper-V
**According to the CVSS metric, successful exploitation could lead to a scope change (S:C). What does this mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could potentially execute a cross-VM attack, thereby compromising multiple virtual machines and expanding the impact of the attack beyond the initially targeted VM.
**How would an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** This vulnerability would require an authenticated attacker on a guest VM to send specially crafted file operation requests on the VM to hardware resources on the VM which could result in remote code execution on the host server.
**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability by an attacker requires a user to first reboot their machine.
**Windows 11, version 24H2 is not generally available yet. Why are there updates for this version of Windows listed in the Security Updates table?** The new Copilot+ devices that are now publicly available come with Windows 11, version 24H2 installed. Customers with these devices need to know about any vulnerabilities that affect their machine and to install the updates if they are not receiving automatic updates. Note that the general availability date for Windows 11, version 24H2 is scheduled for later this year.
**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.
**How would an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** This vulnerability would require an authenticated attacker on a guest VM to send specially crafted file operation requests on the VM to hardware resources on the VM which could result in remote code execution on the host server.
**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** The type of information that could be disclosed if a Hyper-V Guest attacker successfully exploited this vulnerability is data from the Hyper-V Host.
**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** The type of information that could be disclosed if a Hyper-V Guest attacker successfully exploited this vulnerability is data from the Hyper-V Host.
**According to the CVSS metric, a successful exploitation could lead to a scope change (S:C). What does this mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow a Hyper-V guest to affect the functionality of the Hyper-V host.
**What privileges could an attacker gain?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.
