CVE-2024-38080 is a Windows Hyper-V Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability. This flaw allows an attacker to gain elevated privileges on a system running Hyper-V. The relatively low SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) of 36 suggests while present, immediate action may not be as crucial compared to vulnerabilities with higher scores.

The vulnerability, classified under CWE-190, involves an integer overflow leading to privilege escalation. While the CVSS score is 7.8, indicating high severity, the SVRS indicates the threat might not be as actively exploited or impactful in the broader threat landscape. However, given the active exploits and its presence in the CISA KEV catalog, careful monitoring is crucial. Successful exploitation could allow attackers to bypass security restrictions and gain administrative control over the Hyper-V environment. Organizations using Windows Hyper-V should review vendor advisories and apply necessary patches to mitigate the potential risk associated with this vulnerability despite the lower SVRS.
