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-2020-7331 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: McAfee, LLC McAfee Endpoint Security (ENS). 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-2020-7331/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7331/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-7331","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7331/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-7331","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w44x-f7wx-v7m6"],"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","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can execute malicious code and escalate privileges by exploiting unquoted service paths in McAfee Endpoint Security.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trellix","cpe":[{"product":"endpoint_security","vendor":"mcafee"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-428","name":"Unquoted Search Path or Element"}],"description":"Unquoted service executable path in McAfee Endpoint Security (ENS) prior to 10.7.0 November 2020 Update allows local users to cause a denial of service and malicious file execution via carefully crafted and named executable files.","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":"Unquoted service executable path in McAfee Endpoint Security (ENS)","id":"CVE-2020-7331","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in firewall ePO extension of McAfee Endpoint Security (ENS)","id":"CVE-2020-7332"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege Escalation vulnerability in McAfee Total Protection (MTP) trial","id":"CVE-2020-7330"},"products":["McAfee Endpoint Security (ENS)"],"published":"2020-11-12","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Improper Access Control Vulnerability in ENS for Windows","id":"CVE-2020-7319","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege Escalation vulnerability through symbolic links in ENS for Windows","id":"CVE-2020-7264","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege Escalation vulnerability through symbolic links in ENSM","id":"CVE-2020-7265","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-08"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"McAfee Endpoint Security updates fix a privilege escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2019-3582","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-02-28"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Privilege Escalation vulnerability through Symbolic links in ENS","id":"CVE-2020-7257","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-15"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"Improper Access Control in the ENS installer","id":"CVE-2021-23882","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-02-10"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"ENS symbolic link log file manipulation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-7250","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-15"}],"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":"2024-09-16","vendors":["McAfee, LLC"]},"summary":"Local attackers can execute malicious code and escalate privileges by exploiting unquoted service paths in McAfee Endpoint Security.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7331/"}
