## Technical details

A code injection vulnerability exists in the web management interface of Trellix Network Security CM and NX appliances. The flaw is located within the handling of Alert artifact details, where insufficient input validation allows a locally authenticated user with administrative privileges to inject and execute arbitrary code. While the attack requires existing administrative credentials, successful exploitation results in full system compromise at the level of the web service or underlying operating system. Users should refer to Trellix security bulletin SB10433 for specific version fixes and patching instructions.
