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-2026-12410 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Gen Digital CCleaner. 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-2026-12410/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12410/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-12410","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12410/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-12410","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fgpf-v7cp-xh35"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"System utility software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can escalate privileges to SYSTEM by exploiting a link following vulnerability in CCleaner's uninstaller component.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GEN","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"}],"description":"Link following vulnerability in the Uninstaller component in CCleaner prior to 7.10.1464 on Windows allows a local, low-privileged attacker to escalate privileges to SYSTEM via a symlink/junction created during application uninstallation, which CCleaner follows when deleting the application's data folder with elevated integrity.","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":"CCleaner local privilege escalation via link following on uninstall","id":"CVE-2026-12410","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Broken Access Control in Canonical LXD DevLXD API","id":"CVE-2026-12411"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Landing Page Builder \u003c= 1.5.3.6 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to ulpb_admin_data AJAX Action","id":"CVE-2026-12409"},"products":["CCleaner"],"published":"2026-08-05","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":"2026-08-05","vendors":["Gen Digital"]},"summary":"A local attacker can escalate privileges to SYSTEM by exploiting a link following vulnerability in CCleaner's uninstaller component.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12410/"}
