Windows Device Health Attestation (DHA) Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 32/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.54% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
- Fixed version: Windows 10 Version 1809 for 32-bit Systems 10.0.17763.9121; Windows 10 Version 1809 for x64-based Systems 10.0.17763.9121; Windows 11 Version 26H1 for ARM64-based Systems 10.0.28000.2704.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Windows 10 Version 1809 for 32-bit Systems 10.0.17763.9121; Windows 10 Version 1809 for x64-based Systems 10.0.17763.9121; Windows 11 Version 26H1 for ARM64-based Systems 10.0.28000.2704 or later.

Exploit status
No known public exploit
No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.
Research context
For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.
Timeline
From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.
No dated events beyond publication.
FIRST EPSS daily score; only changes of 0.01 or more are recorded (step chart).
Patch and commit links
Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.
No commit or PR link among the references.
