CVE-2020-1472

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when an attacker establishes
a vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connection to a domain controller,
using the Netlogon Remote Protocol (MS-NRPC). An attacker who successfully
exploited the vulnerability could run a specially crafted application on a
device on the network. To exploit the vulnerability, an unauthenticated
attacker would be required to use MS-NRPC to connect to a domain controller
to obtain domain administrator access. Microsoft is addressing the
vulnerability in a phased two-part rollout. These updates address the
vulnerability by modifying how Netlogon handles the usage of Netlogon
secure channels. For guidelines on how to manage the changes required for
this vulnerability and more information on the phased rollout, see How to
manage the changes in Netlogon secure channel connections associated with
CVE-2020-1472 (updated September 28, 2020). When the second phase of
Windows updates become available in Q1 2021, customers will be notified via
a revision to this security vulnerability. If you wish to be notified when
these updates are released, we recommend that you register for the security
notifications mailer to be alerted of content changes to this advisory. See
Microsoft Technical Security Notifications.
