  • Engineer — Act: A public PoC now exists for a domain-hijack flaw in AD Certificate Services; audit your PKI templates for misconfigured enrollment permissions and apply any available patch or Microsoft-recommended mitigation immediately.
  • SOC/IR — Plan: Build detections for anomalous certificate enrollment requests and CA template abuse (e.g., unusual Enrollee Supplies Subject flag usage); no confirmed active exploitation reported yet, but PoC availability shortens the runway.
  • Leader — Learn: A PoC for a Windows domain-compromise vulnerability is now public; no board-level action needed yet, but monitor for escalation to active exploitation that could affect enterprise AD environments.
