Unpatched NTLM Leakage in Windows search: URI Handler, Same Bug, No CVE, No Fix
An unpatched NTLM credential leakage vulnerability exists in Windows Explorer's search handler that mirrors a previously patched flaw in Snipping Tool. The issue has not been assigned a CVE identifier and remains unfixed, creating a potential security gap for organizations relying on CVE-based patch management.
Why it matters: Windows users and security teams need to know that CVE-based patching strategies miss vulnerabilities without CVE assignments, leaving credential exposure unaddressed until Microsoft acts.
