Show ▼
CISA added CVE-2025-60710 to its actively exploited catalog and gave FCEB agencies two weeks to secure systems under BOD 22-01. The move targets a Windows Task Host link-following privilege-escalation flaw affecting Windows 11 and Windows Server 2025. Because the flaw can let local attackers reach SYSTEM privileges, the directive raises the urgency of patching across federal civilian networks.

CISA adds CVE-2025-60710 to actively exploited catalog
Legal Policy Action UpdateCISA added CVE-2025-60710, a Windows Task Host link-following privilege-escalation flaw affecting Windows 11 and Windows Server 2025, to its actively exploited vulnerabilities catalog and ordered Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies to secure their systems within two weeks under BOD 22-01. CISA also urged other defenders to apply vendor patches and mitigations because local attackers with basic user permissions could reach SYSTEM privileges and take full control of affected devices.
