Ps: Microsoft is stupid and I can't wait to sell bugs in their software.— SandboxEscaper (@SandboxEscaper) August 27, 2018
Basically, the vulnerability can authorize a local user to obtain elevated privileges to a system. The US-CERT further noted that the exploit works on 64-bit Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016 systems. This is not the first time that an elevation-of-privilege vulnerability has hit a Microsoft system. In June, researchers at McAfee found a critical flaw in Cortana which enabled the execution of PowerShell commands on locked devices.
There's currently no known fix to the bug, though a Microsoft representative reportedly told The Register that the company will "proactively update impacted devices as soon as possible." It remains unclear, though, when the update will arrive.
