Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2026-32223
The USB printing stack driver usbprint.sys can be abused to elevate privilege, and at 64 percent EPSS this is one of the higher modeled-likelihood items in the batch. It affects Windows Server 2025 Server Core and Windows 11 25H2 on both x64 and ARM64, meaning a local user or malicious USB device could gain SYSTEM. Kiosks and shared workstations where users plug in their own peripherals are the obvious exposure.
Do this: Patch Windows 11 25H2 and Server 2025 Core, and restrict USB device installation via policy on any shared or public-facing machines.
