Description

An untrusted search path vulnerability exists in the Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR agent that enables a local attacker with file creation privilege in the Windows root directory (such as C:\) to store a program that can then be unintentionally executed by another local user when that user utilizes a Live Terminal session. This issue impacts: Cortex XDR agent 5.0 versions earlier than Cortex XDR agent 5.0.12; Cortex XDR agent 6.1 versions earlier than Cortex XDR agent 6.1.9; Cortex XDR agent 7.2 versions earlier than Cortex XDR agent 7.2.4; Cortex XDR agent 7.3 versions earlier than Cortex XDR agent 7.3.2.

Affected configurations

• paloaltonetworks cortex xdr agent (>= 5.0 < 5.0.12) • paloaltonetworks cortex xdr agent (>= 6.1 < 6.1.9) • paloaltonetworks cortex xdr agent (>= 7.2 < 7.2.4) • paloaltonetworks cortex xdr agent (>= 7.3 < 7.3.2)
