After installing this update on domain controllers (DCs), affected versions of Windows Servers might restart unexpectedly after receiving an Lsass.exe error.

This issue is resolved in KB5010796. |
After installing updates released January 11, 2022 or later, apps that use the Microsoft .NET Framework to acquire or set Active Directory Forest Trust Information might have issues. The apps might fail or close or you might receive an error from the app or Windows. You might also receive an access violation (0xc0000005) error.
