Risk summary
Not in the CISA KEV catalog. EPSS exploit probability 2.3%. CVSS 6.5 (Medium).
This CVE is among the lower half of tracked Microsoft CVEs by EPSS exploit probability.
NTLM spoofing on Windows Server 2022 and Server 2004 core carries a Critical 9.8 rating, and NTLM relay-style weaknesses have a long history of enabling lateral movement. An attacker who can spoof within the NTLM exchange may impersonate a server or coerce authentication. Domain member servers exposed to internal clients are the exposure point.
Do this: Patch Windows Server 2022 and 2004 core hosts, and where feasible move toward disabling NTLM in favor of Kerberos to shrink this attack surface.
