CVE-2026-58611
High CVSS 7.8Published 2026-09-08 ยท last changed 2026-09-14
The fix
Microsoft fixes this in a Microsoft Store app update, so Windows Update and WSUS won't deliver it. The app at the version below, or later, has the fix.
| App | Fixed in version | Package | Released |
|---|---|---|---|
| Xbox Gaming Services | 37.114.10001.0 | Microsoft.GamingServices | 2026-11-07 |
The Store updates these apps on its own schedule. A machine with Store updates turned off, or no
Store access at all (common on managed fleets), keeps the old version.
To check one, run Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.GamingServices and
compare its Version to the table.
What it is
Improper authorization in XBox Gaming Services allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
