A security feature bypass vulnerability exists in Windows due to the way the IP-HTTPS Component handles certificates. The vulnerability could allow security feature bypass if an attacker presents a revoked certificate to an IP-HTTPS server commonly used in Microsoft DirectAccess deployments. To exploit the vulnerability, the attacker must use a certificate issued from the domain for IP-HTTPS server authentication.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow the attacker to bypass certificate validation checks. Logging on to a system inside the organization would still require system or domain credentials.
