Issue/Introduction

Sensor being marked with vulnerabilities (CVEs) that have already been patched on the Microsoft OS prior to the latest reassessment date.

Environment

  • Carbon Black Cloud Vulnerability Management: Current Version
  • Microsoft Windows OS: All Supported Versions

Cause

Before April 7th 2025, there was an issue with the KB article published by Microsoft that tracks vulnerability patches.

Resolution

On April 7th 2025, the Microsoft Data Collector service that runs on all PRODs is now working as expected since Microsoft updated their KB file that we use to match vulnerability patches.
