Details
A vulnerability classified as very critical has been found in Microsoft Windows (Operating System). This affects an unknown code block of the component SMB. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a input validation vulnerability (EternalBlue/EternalChampion/EternalRomance/EternalSynergy/NotPetya/WannaCry). CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-20. The product receives input or data, but it does
not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the
properties that are required to process the data safely and
correctly. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
