Summary

Hide ▲

CVE-2025-49760 is a Windows RPC / Windows Storage spoofing flaw that Microsoft fixed in July 2025. Researchers showed the bug can be abused through EPM poisoning to register built-in interfaces, impersonate a known server, and coerce RPC clients into trusting an attacker-controlled endpoint. The issue matters because that spoofing path can help leak machine-account NTLM hashes and support privilege escalation.
