Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-49071 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Defender for Endpoint 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-2024-49071/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-49071/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-49071","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-49071/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-49071","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-49ff-m2jv-96mv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows Defender","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authorized attacker can disclose sensitive information from Windows Defender Global Files search indexes over a network.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"defender_for_endpoint","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-612","name":"Improper Authorization of Index Containing Sensitive Information"}],"description":"Improper authorization of an index that contains sensitive information from a Global Files search in Windows Defender allows an authorized attacker to disclose information over a network.","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":"Windows Defender Information Disclosure Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-49071","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Windows Task Scheduler Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-49072"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Microsoft SharePoint Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-49070"},"products":["Microsoft Defender for Endpoint for Windows"],"published":"2024-12-12","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Linux Extension Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-21537","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-10"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint on Android Spoofing Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-49057","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-10"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-47161","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-15"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Protection Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-21315","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-13"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint for Mac Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-35828","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-13"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint for Mac Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-50658","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-14"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Microsoft Defender for Linux Denial of Service Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-59497","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-10-14"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-06-09","vendors":["Microsoft"]},"summary":"An authorized attacker can disclose sensitive information from Windows Defender Global Files search indexes over a network.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-49071/"}
