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-2026-41702 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Vmware Fusion. 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-2026-41702/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41702/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-41702","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41702/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-41702","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gwg2-qh78-562m"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware Fusion","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can exploit a TOCTOU race condition in a SETUID binary to escalate privileges to root on systems running VMware Fusion.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"vmware","cpe":[{"product":"fusion","vendor":"vmware"}],"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-367","name":"Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition"}],"description":"VMware Fusion contains a TOCTOU (Time-of-check Time-of-use) vulnerability that occurs during an operation performed by a SETUID binary. A malicious actor with local non-administrative user privileges may exploit this vulnerability to escalate privileges to root on the system where Fusion is installed.","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":"TOCTOU local privilege escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-41702","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vmware:fusion","products":["vmware:fusion"],"type":"race_condition","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Out-of-bounds read vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-41703"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"In Spring AMQP sequential correlation IDs enable reply poisoning on fixed reply queues","id":"CVE-2026-41701"},"products":["Fusion"],"published":"2026-05-15","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"VMware Multiple Products Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2020-3950","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-03-17"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Memory corruption in Fusion Pro / Fusion","id":"CVE-2017-4901","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-06-08"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Use after free in VMware Fusion","id":"CVE-2024-22267","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-14"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Memory corruption in Workstation and Fusion","id":"CVE-2019-5541","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-20"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code-execution vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-38811","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in VMware Workstation Pro / Player (Workstation) and VMware Fusion","id":"CVE-2023-20872","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Use after free in Fusion","id":"CVE-2020-3947","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-16"}],"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":"2026-05-15","vendors":["VMware"]},"summary":"A local attacker can exploit a TOCTOU race condition in a SETUID binary to escalate privileges to root on systems running VMware Fusion.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41702/"}
