Windows Kerberos Security Feature Bypass CVE-2026-24297 — Race Condition Enables Unauthenticated Network Attack

CVE-2026-24297 is a security feature bypass in the Windows Kerberos implementation caused by a race condition that can be triggered remotely without credentials or user interaction. Patched in the March 2026 Patch Tuesday, the vulnerability allows an attacker with network access to a Kerberos-speaking service to bypass security validation in the authentication flow. No active exploitation has been confirmed but the attack vector requires no credentials, increasing urgency.
