AI description

Automated description summarized from trusted sources.

CVE-2025-33053 is a remote code execution vulnerability affecting the WebDAV client in Microsoft Windows. It stems from insufficient input validation in WebDAV file path handling, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code over a network. Successful exploitation requires a user to click on a specially crafted WebDAV URL, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive system resources, compromise of system integrity and confidentiality, or even full control of the affected system. This vulnerability has been actively exploited in the wild.
