<p>A security feature bypass vulnerability exists when Windows Defender Firewall incorrectly applies firewall profiles to cellular network connections. This vulnerability occurs when Windows is connected to both an ethernet network and a cellular network.</p> <p>An attacker would have no way to trigger this vulnerability remotely, and this vulnerability by itself does not allow Windows to be exploited.</p> <p>This update addresses the behavior by correcting how Windows Defender Firewall handles firewall profiles when ethernet and cellular network connections are both present.</p>
