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-2026-0294 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access 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-2026-0294/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-0294/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-0294","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-0294/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-0294","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8hj5-7xgx-6gq2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Prisma Access Agent","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A local user can execute code with elevated privileges on Windows and macOS via the Prisma Access Agent.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"palo_alto","cpe":[{"product":"prisma_access_agent","vendor":"paloaltonetworks"}],"cvss":{"score":6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/AU:N/R:A/V:C/RE:M/U:Amber","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-427","name":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element"}],"description":"A privilege escalation (PE) vulnerability in the Palo Alto Networks Prisma® Access Agent app on Windows and macOS devices enables a local user to execute code with elevated privileges. \n\nThe Prisma Access Agent on Linux, iOS, Android, and ChromeOS is not affected.","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":"Prisma Access Agent: Local Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2026-0294","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"GlobalProtect App: Local Privilege Escalation via Race Condition on macOS","id":"CVE-2026-0295"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Prisma Access Agent: Anti-Tamper Protection Bypass on Windows","id":"CVE-2026-0293"},"products":["Prisma Access Agent"],"published":"2026-08-13","related":[{"cvss_score":6.2,"headline":"Prisma Access Agent: Improper Certificate Validation Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-0248","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-13"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"Prisma Access Agent: Local Privilege Escalation by Authorized Users","id":"CVE-2026-0271","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-10"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"Prisma Access Agent: Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-0246","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-13"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"Prisma Access Agent Endpoint DLP: Authorization Bypass Vulnerabilities","id":"CVE-2026-0247","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-13"},{"cvss_score":5.8,"headline":"Prisma Access Agent: Multiple DLP Policy Bypass Vulnerabilities on Windows","id":"CVE-2026-0278","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-09"},{"cvss_score":5.7,"headline":"Prisma Access Agent: Improper Certificate Validation on iOS","id":"CVE-2026-0277","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-09"}],"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":"2026-08-13","vendors":["Palo Alto Networks"]},"summary":"A local user can execute code with elevated privileges on Windows and macOS via the Prisma Access Agent.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-0294/"}
