Published: April 11, 2026
Official Description
Various Paragon Software products contain a null pointer dereference vulnerability within biontdrv.sys that is caused by a lack of a valid MasterLrp structure in the input buffer, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the kernel, facilitating privilege escalation.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2025-0287 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
CISA has added CVE-2025-0287 to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, confirming active exploitation in the wild. U.S. federal agencies are required to patch this within the mandated timeframe, and all organizations should treat remediation as urgent.
