CVE-2019-0725

37
FAUCET Score

CVE-2019-0725 is a critical memory corruption vulnerability affecting the Windows Server DHCP service across various versions, including 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2019. This vulnerability allows for remote code execution (RCE) due to specially crafted packets. With a CVSS score of 9.8, it presents a severe risk, as it can be exploited remotely with low attack complexity and without user interaction, leading to complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While there is no evidence of active exploitation (not in KEV) and no public exploit code available in Metasploit, Nuclei, or ExploitDB, its high EPSS and FAUCET Risk Score indicate a significant potential for future exploitation. Community discussion and media coverage are relatively low, suggesting it may not be widely known despite its severity.
