However, these are the actively exploited vulnerabilities to worry about right now:
• CVE-2025-24993: This is a common buffer overflow exploit. In simple terms, criminals take advantage of a coding error and overload your system memory with more, which overwrites your current system memory.
• CVE-2025-24991: If an unsuspecting user mounts a nefarious virtual hard disk (VHD), this bug allows a hacker to read all of your data (even all the out-of-bounds stuff).
• CVE-2025-24984: This exploit allows an attacker to record all sensitive information into a log file for them to take. While it’s a concerning one, it does require the malicious actor to physically access your computer.
• CVE-2025-26633: A simple (but risky) bypass flaw in the Microsoft Management Console.
• CVE-2025-24985: This one also requires the attacker to convince a user to mount a VHD of their own volition. But once done, there is a privilege escalation flaw that can be exploited to take over the victim’s entire computer.
• CVE-2025-24983: This is a system-level exploit where a malicious actor can run a specially crafted program that exploits the Kernel Subsystem of Windows to give an attacker top privileges to your system.](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/114/161/162/797/465/639/original/baa978608da5f225.png "[ImageSource: Shutterstock]
