Summary

CVE-2026-105294 is a critical-severity External Control of System or Configuration Setting (CWE-15) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 9.1 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Winlogon Helper DLL (T1547.004); ranked at the 8th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and AC-6 (Least Privilege) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise Techniques

T1547.004 Winlogon Helper DLL Persistence
Adversaries may abuse features of Winlogon to execute DLLs and/or executables when a user logs in.
T1574.006 Dynamic Linker Hijacking Stealth
Adversaries may execute their own malicious payloads by hijacking environment variables the dynamic linker uses to load shared libraries.
T1037 Boot or Logon Initialization Scripts Persistence
Adversaries may use scripts automatically executed at boot or logon initialization to establish persistence.
T1112 Modify Registry Defense Impairment
Adversaries may interact with the Windows Registry as part of a variety of other techniques to aid in defense evasion, persistence, and execution.
T1547 Boot or Logon Autostart Execution Persistence
Adversaries may configure system settings to automatically execute a program during system boot or logon to maintain persistence or gain higher-level privileges on compromised systems.
T1547.001 Registry Run Keys / Startup Folder Persistence
Adversaries may achieve persistence by adding a program to a startup folder or referencing it with a Registry run key.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Enforces approved authorizations for logical access to configuration resources so external parties cannot alter them.

Limits privileges to the minimum needed, reducing the set of users who can externally modify configuration.

Enforces documented access restrictions on all changes to system configuration, directly blocking unauthorized external control of settings.

blocks

A.5.15 only requires that access control policies and rules be defined and documented; it does not itself enforce, implement or configure those rules to stop external control of system/configuration settings, so the weakness remains fully exploitable.

blocks

A.5.18 governs the provisioning, review, and revocation of authorized access rights; it has no bearing on whether a system or configuration setting can be externally controlled by a user (CWE-15).

degrades

Documented operating procedures define how configuration changes must be performed.

blocks

Use of privileged utility programs is controlled to prevent misuse of configuration tools.

blocks

Privileged access rights reduce the number of users who can alter configuration.
