CVE-2026-59000

Summary

A confused deputy vulnerability allows an unprivileged local attacker to bypass permission checks by tricking a privileged component into performing unauthorized actions on its behalf, leading to full local privilege escalation without user interaction.

Exploitability

Exploitation requires local access and no additional privileges; it is straightforward for an attacker already present in the system due to the low complexity (AC:L) and no user interaction needed.

Blast radius

Successful exploitation grants full local compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the affected host, enabling complete system takeover by a local attacker.

Detection

No reliable host or network indicator is derivable from the published description.

Prioritized remediation

Upgrade to the patched version specified by the vendor; since no fixed version is named in the description, apply the principle of least privilege, audit and restrict access to the vulnerable component, and disable the affected feature until a patch is applied.
