Windows and Office users face significant security risks, as highlighted by Microsoft and the Indian government. The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) issued a high-severity alert in June 2025, warning of a remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2025-33053) in the Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WEBDAV) server. This vulnerability could allow attackers to execute malicious code by tricking users into opening crafted files, potentially leading to data breaches. Affected users include those on Microsoft Windows, Office, Azure, and legacy products with Extended Security Updates. Businesses are particularly at risk of costly ransomware attacks. Microsoft advises users to enable auto-updates and reboot their systems to install the latest security patches.
