AI-Generated

A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the Windows Resilient File System (ReFS) could allow unauthorized attackers to execute arbitrary code through physical access to the system. This poses a medium severity risk, particularly for environments where physical security is not strictly enforced. Organizations using Windows systems, especially those relying on ReFS for data integrity, should prioritize patching to mitigate potential exploitation.
