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-2025-20259 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco ThousandEyes Endpoint Agent. 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-2025-20259/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20259/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-20259","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20259/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-20259","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cxp3-3gvr-5g69"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco ThousandEyes Agent","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local authenticated attacker can delete arbitrary files via symbolic link manipulation during agent upgrades, requiring a patch.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"thousandeyes_endpoint_agent","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Multiple vulnerabilities in the update process of Cisco ThousandEyes Endpoint Agent for Windows could allow an authenticated, local attacker to delete arbitrary files on an affected device.\r\n\r\nThese vulnerabilities are due to improper access controls on files that are in the local file system.
