It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-7337 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: McAfee, LLC VirusScan Enterprise (VSE). 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-2020-7337/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7337/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-7337","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7337/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-7337","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-38q2-qj9f-p542"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Antivirus software","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Local administrators can bypass security protections by manipulating Code Integrity checks due to incorrect permission assignments in McAfee VirusScan Enterprise.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trellix","cpe":[{"product":"virusscan_enterprise","vendor":"mcafee"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"}],"description":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource vulnerability in McAfee VirusScan Enterprise (VSE) prior to 8.8 Patch 16 allows local administrators to bypass local security protection through VSE not correctly integrating with Windows Defender Application Control via careful manipulation of the Code Integrity checks.","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":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource","id":"CVE-2020-7337","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Database Security(DBS)-Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm","id":"CVE-2020-7339"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Network Security Management (NSM) - Cross Site Request Forgery vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-7336"},"products":["VirusScan Enterprise (VSE)"],"published":"2020-12-09","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-5118","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-08-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege Escalation vulnerability through symbolic links in VSE for Windows","id":"CVE-2020-7266","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege Escalation vulnerability through symbolic links in VSEL","id":"CVE-2020-7267","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-08"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Auth bypass in VirusScan Enterprise Linux (VSEL)","id":"CVE-2016-8023","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-14"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Other in VirusScan Enterprise Linux (VSEL)","id":"CVE-2016-8024","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-14"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Code injection in VirusScan Enterprise Linux (VSEL)","id":"CVE-2016-8020","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-14"},{"cvss_score":7.9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2152","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-04-19"}],"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 administrators can bypass security protections by manipulating Code Integrity checks due to incorrect permission assignments in McAfee VirusScan Enterprise.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7337/"}
