It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-8454 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Check Point Endpoint Security client for Windows. 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-2019-8454/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8454/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-8454","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8454/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-8454","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2jcp-ppp2-c9rv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Endpoint Security Client","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can exploit hard-linking and WPAD impersonation to inject malicious commands into a BAT file executed by the system or user.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"checkpoint","cpe":[{"product":"endpoint_security","vendor":"checkpoint"}],"cvss":{"score":7,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"},{"id":"CWE-65","name":"Windows Hard Link"}],"description":"A local attacker can create a hard-link between a file to which the Check Point Endpoint Security client for Windows before E80.96 writes and another BAT file, then by impersonating the WPAD server, the attacker can write BAT commands into that file that will later be run by the user or the system.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in Check Point Endpoint Security client for Windows","id":"CVE-2019-8454","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Check Point ZoneAlarm","id":"CVE-2019-8455"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Other in Check Point ZoneAlarm","id":"CVE-2019-8453"},"products":["Check Point Endpoint Security client for Windows"],"published":"2019-04-29","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Local Privliege Escalation in Check Point Endpoint Security Remediation Service","id":"CVE-2023-28134","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-12"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Harmony Endpoint.","id":"CVE-2023-28133","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-07-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in Check Point Endpoint Security Client for Windows","id":"CVE-2022-23742","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-12"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Check Point Remote Access Client","id":"CVE-2021-30360","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-01-07"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Check Point Endpoint Security Client for Windows","id":"CVE-2020-6021","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-12-03"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Check Point Endpoint Security client for Windows","id":"CVE-2019-8452","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-22"}],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["Check Point"]},"summary":"A local attacker can exploit hard-linking and WPAD impersonation to inject malicious commands into a BAT file executed by the system or user.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8454/"}
