CVE-2026-76147: CWE-862 in Genians, Inc Genian NAC 4.0.175 Release
A path traversal (ZIP Slip) vulnerability caused by insufficient authorization and integrity verification in the agent upgrade feature of Genian NAC/ZTNA allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2026-76147) in Genian NAC 4.0.175 Release arises from inadequate authorization and integrity checks during the agent upgrade process, leading to a path traversal (ZIP Slip) vulnerability. An attacker with high privileges can exploit this flaw to execute arbitrary code remotely. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 5.9, indicating medium severity, with attack vector network, high attack complexity, and requiring high privileges but no user interaction.
Potential Impact
A remote attacker with high privileges can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the affected system by leveraging the path traversal flaw in the agent upgrade feature. This could lead to unauthorized code execution and potential compromise of the system's integrity.
Mitigation Recommendations
No patch or official fix information is currently available. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is provided, restrict access to the agent upgrade feature to trusted administrators and monitor for unusual activity related to upgrade processes.
