Technical details

An improper access control vulnerability exists in the internal validation processes of the Idira Endpoint Privilege Manager Agent. The flaw, specifically related to improper certificate validation (CWE-295), allows a local attacker with low privileges to bypass cryptographic validations and the agent's built-in self-defense mechanisms. By circumventing these controls, an attacker can execute unauthorized operations that would otherwise be blocked by the EPM policy. The issue is addressed in version 26.5 of the agent across Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms.
