ESET Inspect Connector, published on 16 Jul 2026. 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-2026-6423 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: ESET, spol. s.r.o. ESET Inspect Connector. 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-2026-6423/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6423/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-6423","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6423/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-6423","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-95hw-w6xx-75xp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ESET Inspect Connector","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges via unauthenticated ALPC in ESET Inspect Connector due to improper IPC authentication.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ESET","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"A local privilege escalation vulnerability in ESET Inspect Connector. \nThe vulnerability was caused by improper authentication in an IPC channel.","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":"Local privilege escalation via unauthenticated ALPC in ESET Inspect Connector","id":"CVE-2026-6423","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":"Use-after-free vulnerability in ESET security products for Linux","id":"CVE-2026-6424"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Mobatek MobaXterm Home Edition msimg32.dll uncontrolled search path","id":"CVE-2026-6421"},"products":["ESET Inspect Connector"],"published":"2026-07-16","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":"2026-07-16","vendors":["ESET, spol. s.r.o."]},"summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges via unauthenticated ALPC in ESET Inspect Connector due to improper IPC authentication.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6423/"}
