KB5101650 is a Security Update for Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 25H2 on both ARM64 and x64 systems, addressing CVE-2026-50661, a publicly disclosed BitLocker flaw. Because BitLocker sits at the disk encryption layer, this exposes any Windows 11 endpoint relying on it for data at rest protection, and the public disclosure means attack details are already circulating ahead of full CVE documentation.
Do this: Deploy KB5101650 to all Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2 devices, prioritizing BitLocker-encrypted laptops and any machines with physical exposure risk.
