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-2024-13960 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: AVG TuneUp. 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-2024-13960/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-13960/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-13960","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-13960/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-13960","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x6fj-h4wg-gc58"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"AVG TuneUp","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges to SYSTEM and execute arbitrary code via a TOCTTOU race condition involving symbolic links in AVG TuneUp.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"NLOK","cpe":[],"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-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"},{"id":"CWE-367","name":"Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition"}],"description":"Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability in TuneUp Service in AVG TuneUp Version 23.4 (build 15592) on Windows 10 allows local attackers to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM via creating a symbolic link and leveraging a TOCTTOU (time-of-check to time-of-use) attack.","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":"Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability in AVG TuneUp Version 23.4","id":"CVE-2024-13960","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Avast Cleanup Premium TuneupSvc Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-13961"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability in AVG TuneUp 24.2.16593.9844","id":"CVE-2024-13959"},"products":["TuneUp"],"published":"2025-05-09","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-09","vendors":["AVG"]},"summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges to SYSTEM and execute arbitrary code via a TOCTTOU race condition involving symbolic links in AVG TuneUp.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-13960/"}
