Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-07-21 07:08 – Updated: 2025-07-21 15:18
VLAI?
Summary
A locally authenticated, privileged user can craft a malicious OpenSSL configuration file, potentially leading the agent to load an arbitrary local library. This may impair endpoint defenses and allow the attacker to achieve code execution with SYSTEM-level privileges.
Severity ?
6.7 (Medium)
