Always On VPN Security Updates June 2025

Patch Tuesday is upon us again; thankfully, it’s a light month of Always On VPN administrators. The Microsoft monthly security updates for June 2025 include just a few Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) fixes. In addition, an update is available for a vulnerability in the Windows Remote Access Connection Manager. Significantly, DirectAccess administrators are affected this month by a vulnerability identified in the Windows KDC Proxy Service (KPSSVC).

The Microsoft security updates for June 2025 address the following CVEs for Windows Server RRAS.

Both RRAS CVEs are Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerabilities with max severity ratings of Important.

This critical vulnerability affects those organizations still supporting Microsoft DirectAccess in their environments.
