Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2026-84869 in the wild since at least 11 Sep 2026.\n\nAffected product: ConnectWise ScreenConnect. 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-2026-84869/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-84869/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-84869","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-84869/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-84869","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rc8v-f46m-jcgm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ScreenConnect remote access","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can execute files on a host via ScreenConnect client file-transfer actions without authorization or confirmation, leading to code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ConnectWise","cpe":[{"product":"screenconnect","vendor":"connectwise"}],"cvss":{"score":9.9,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"},{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"A condition in the ScreenConnect client may allow files to be transferred and executed through an active remote session without authorization or Host confirmation in certain circumstances.
