A remote code execution flaw in Windows SMB rated Critical at CVSS 9.8 with a 36 percent exploit probability, and the affected platforms are current: Windows Server 2025 Server Core and Windows 11 24H2 on both architectures. SMB RCE is the vulnerability class behind the most damaging worms in Windows history, and this one lives in your newest builds rather than legacy stragglers. A 36 percent EPSS on an SMB code execution bug deserves out-of-cycle attention.
