The vulnerability CVE-2026-45175 affects Idira Endpoint Privilege Manager Agent version 26.0 and is classified under CWE-295 for improper certificate validation. It arises from improper access control within the agent's internal validation processes. A local attacker with limited privileges could exploit this flaw to bypass built-in security controls or cryptographic validations, potentially circumventing the agent's self-defense mechanisms and executing unauthorized operations. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 8.5, indicating high severity. There is no vendor advisory indicating an official fix or patch availability as of the published date.

Successful exploitation allows a local attacker to bypass security controls and cryptographic validations within the agent, potentially leading to unauthorized operations and disabling of self-defense mechanisms. This compromises the integrity and security posture of the endpoint privilege management agent, increasing risk of privilege escalation or persistence.

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official fix or remediation level is provided, organizations should monitor CyberArk's security bulletins for updates. Until a patch is available, consider restricting local access to affected systems and applying compensating controls to limit potential exploitation.
