Major IPv6 Bug Found in Windows
I explore CVE-2024-38063, a critical remote code execution vulnerability affecting the latest versions of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server
Mitigation:
“Systems are not affected if IPv6 is disabled on the target machine” -Microsoft
Steps to Disable IPv6 on a network interface:
Open Control Panel:
In the Control Panel, select “Network and Internet,” then click “Network and Sharing Center.”
On the left-hand side, click “Change adapter settings.” This will show you a list of all network adapters available on your computer.
Find the network adapter you use to connect to the internet, right-click on it, and select “Properties.”
In the properties window, scroll to find “Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)” and uncheck the box next to it.
Click “OK” to save your changes and close the properties window.
Restart your computer to ensure the changes take effect.
