About this tag
The RRAS tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about the Windows Routing and Remote Access Service, a component that provides VPN termination, NAT, routing, and remote access capabilities. Recent threads focus on security vulnerabilities in RRAS, including CVE-2026-57096, a high-severity elevation-of-privilege flaw fixed in July 2026 updates, and a cluster of remote-code-execution (RCE) vulnerabilities addressed by Microsoft's out-of-band hotpatch KB5084597 for Windows 11 Enterprise. This hotpatch allows eligible devices to receive fixes without an immediate reboot, minimizing operational disruption. Topics include patch management, exploitability assessments, and the importance of applying updates to protect network-facing attack surfaces.
