An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-17658 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Fortinet Forticlient. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-17658/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-17658/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-17658","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-17658/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-17658","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m95v-g4pm-pcq9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"FortiClient Windows","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can gain elevated privileges on Windows systems by exploiting an unquoted service path in the FortiClient FortiTray component.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"fortinet","cpe":[{"product":"forticlient","vendor":"fortinet"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-428","name":"Unquoted Search Path or Element"}],"description":"An unquoted service path vulnerability in the FortiClient FortiTray component of FortiClientWindows v6.2.2 and prior allow an attacker to gain elevated privileges via the FortiClientConsole executable service path.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2020-03-11","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2020-03-11T11:58:24Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Ibonok/CVE-2019-17658","stars":0,"title":"Unquoted Service Path exploit in FortiClient (CVE-2019-17658)"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Fortinet FortiClientWindows","id":"CVE-2019-17658","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"fortinet:forticlient","products":["fortinet:forticlient"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in FortiSIEM","id":"CVE-2019-17659"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in FortiAP-S/W2","id":"CVE-2019-17657"},"products":["Fortinet FortiClientWindows"],"published":"2020-03-12","related":[{"cvss_score":9.4,"headline":"Code injection in FortiClientLinux","id":"CVE-2023-45590","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-04-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in FortiClient SSLVPN Client for Linux","id":"CVE-2017-14184","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Fortinet FortiClient","id":"CVE-2016-8493","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-06-26"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Privilege escalation in FortiClientLinux","id":"CVE-2020-15934","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-19"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Path traversal in FortiClientWindows","id":"CVE-2019-5589","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-05-28"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Fortinet FortiClientWindows","id":"CVE-2021-43066","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-11"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-10-25","vendors":["Fortinet"]},"summary":"An attacker can gain elevated privileges on Windows systems by exploiting an unquoted service path in the FortiClient FortiTray component.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-17658/"}
