KB5051987: Windows Server 2019 Security Update (March 2025)
KB5051987 is a High security update for Windows Server 2019, released 2025-03-11. It closes 38 CVEs with a maximum CVSS of 8.8. At least one of them is actively exploited (CISA KEV), so this is a deploy-first update. The most likely of them to be attacked is CVE-2025-26634, which FIRST.org rates at 24% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days.
Update summary
Fixes 38 CVEs. At least one is actively exploited (CISA KEV). Most severe CVSS 8.8 (High). EPSS exploit probability up to 24%. Among the top half of tracked Microsoft updates by EPSS exploit probability.
A newer security update for Windows 10 Version 1809 for 32-bit Systems has shipped since this one: KB5094041 (2026-08-11). For cumulative update families the newer package includes these fixes, so installing that one is usually the shorter path. Verify against your own update rings before you skip this package.
KB5051987 is the broadest March 2025 package in this family at 38 CVEs for Windows 10 1809 and Server 2019, adding CVE-2025-21379, CVE-2025-21182, and CVE-2025-21183 to the common list, while holding the same High, CVSS 8.8 ceiling, 22 percent EPSS, and CISA KEV entry. The extra CVEs suggest this build covers additional optional components not present in the narrower sibling KBs. It is still the same actively exploited vulnerability driving urgency here.
Do this: Deploy KB5051987 wherever the broader optional-component coverage applies, and don't assume a narrower sibling KB is an adequate substitute.
