.{elastic-defend}'s network driver may lead to bug checks
[%collapsible]
====
*Details* +
On July 8, 2025, a known issue was discovered in {elastic-defend}'s network driver that may lead to kernel pool corruption, resulting in bug checks (BSODs) on Windows systems with a large number of long-lived network connections that remain inactive for 30+ minutes.

The system may bug check with any of a variety of codes such as `SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION` or `PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA`.

For more information, check https://github.com/elastic/endpoint/issues/90[#90]

*Workaround* +
Downgrade to 8.17.7 or install 8.17.9 once it becomes available.

If you're unable to upgrade or downgrade, set the `advanced.kernel.network` advanced setting to `false` in your {elastic-defend} integration policy.
