CVE-2024-21338
Windows Kernel Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 60%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 99
- Fecha de la puntuación: 7/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
CISA KEV — explotada activamente
- Añadida al catálogo: 4/3/2024
- Plazo de remediación: 25/3/2024
- Uso conocido en ransomware: Known
💥 Exploits públicos
Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.
- Publicado en Exploit-DB · Microsoft Windows 11 - Kernel Privilege Escalation (22/4/2025)
- Publicado en Exploit-DB · Microsoft Windows 10.0.17763.5458 - Kernel Privilege Escalation (2/4/2024)
- Prueba de concepto en GitHub (no verificada) · Lista de pruebas de concepto en GitHub
⚠️ Las pruebas de concepto de GitHub no están verificadas: algunas son falsas o contienen malware. No las ejecute nunca fuera de un laboratorio aislado.
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
