Windows vulnerabilitiesAnd the versions its exploited flaws hit.
Windows is made by Microsoft. We track 8,294 published vulnerabilities listed under that exact name, across 11 versions. 78 of them are on the list of flaws known to be exploited, the newest added on 13 April 2026. Microsoft lists newer releases under their own names, such as Windows Server 2016, so check those pages too.
The most recent Windows flaw added to the known-exploited list is CVE-2020-9715, on 13 April 2026. We keep watching the known-exploited list.
Is Windows listed under other names? Yes.
Microsoft also lists Windows under more specific names, such as Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2019. Flaws listed only under those names are counted on their own pages, not here. If you run one of these, open its page for its own exploited flaws.
