CVE-2016-3352 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Microsoft Windows 8.1, Windows RT 8.1, and Windows 10 Gold, 1511, and 1607 do not properly check NTLM SSO requests for MSA logins, which makes it easier for remote attackers to determine passwords via a brute-force attack on NTLM password hashes, aka "Microsoft Information Disclosure Vulnerability.". EPSS estimates a 20.79% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
