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-2025-24917 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Tenable Network Monitor. 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-2025-24917/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-24917/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-24917","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-24917/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-24917","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9cwm-pw9v-q42q"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Network Monitor","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can escalate privileges to SYSTEM by staging files in a directory, affecting Tenable Network Monitor on Windows.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"tenable","cpe":[{"product":"nessus_network_monitor","vendor":"tenable"}],"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-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"In Tenable Network Monitor versions prior to 6.5.1 on a Windows host, it was found that a non-administrative user could stage files in a local directory to run arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges, potentially leading to local privilege escalation.","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":"Improper Access Control leads to Local Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2025-24917","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in Intel(R) Server Configuration Utility software and Intel(R) Server Firmware Update Utility software","id":"CVE-2025-24918"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Improper Access Control leads to Local Priviledge Escalation","id":"CVE-2025-24916"},"products":["Network Monitor"],"published":"2025-05-23","related":[{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"XSS","id":"CVE-2024-9158","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-30"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in Nessus Network Monitor","id":"CVE-2020-5794","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-11-06"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Blind SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2023-5624","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-26"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2023-5622","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-26"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Improper Access Control leads to Local Priviledge Escalation","id":"CVE-2025-24916","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2023-5623","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-26"}],"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-02-26","vendors":["Tenable"]},"summary":"A local attacker can escalate privileges to SYSTEM by staging files in a directory, affecting Tenable Network Monitor on Windows.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-24917/"}
