Post by Shane1145 »

Microsoft is sharing mitigation guidance on a new Windows Print Spooler vulnerability tracked as CVE-2021-34481 that was disclosed tonight.

Microsoft released an advisory Thursday night for a new CVE-2021-34481 elevation of privilege vulnerability in the Windows Print Spooler that Dragos security researcher Jacob Baines discovered.

Unlike the recently patched PrintNightmare vulnerability, this vulnerability can only be exploited locally to gain elevated privileges on a device.
