| CVE-2022-0166 | A privilege escalation vulnerability in the McAfee Agent prior to 5.7.5. McAfee Agent uses openssl.cnf during the build process to specify the OPENSSLDIR variable as a subdirectory within the installation directory. A low privilege user could have created subdirectories and executed arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges by creating the appropriate pathway to the specifically created malicious openssl.cnf file. | [email protected] | 7.8 | 0.06% | 2022-01-19 | 2024-11-21 |
| CVE-2021-31854 | A command Injection Vulnerability in McAfee Agent (MA) for Windows prior to 5.7.5 allows local users to inject arbitrary shell code into the file cleanup.exe. The malicious clean.exe file is placed into the relevant folder and executed by running the McAfee Agent deployment feature located in the System Tree. An attacker may exploit the vulnerability to obtain a reverse shell which can lead to privilege escalation to obtain root privileges. | [email protected] | 7.7 | 0.28% | 2022-01-19 | 2026-02-24 |
| CVE-2021-31847 | Improper access control vulnerability in the repair process for McAfee Agent for Windows prior to 5.7.4 could allow a local attacker to perform a DLL preloading attack using unsigned DLLs. This would result in elevation of privileges and the ability to execute arbitrary code as the system user, through not correctly protecting a temporary directory used in the repair process and not checking the DLL signature. | [email protected] | 8.2 | 0.03% | 2021-09-22 | 2024-11-21 |
| CVE-2021-31839 | Improper privilege management vulnerability in McAfee Agent for Windows prior to 5.7.3 allows a local user to modify event information in the MA event folder. This allows a local user to either add false events or remove events from the event logs prior to them being sent to the ePO server. | [email protected] | 4.8 | 0.04% | 2021-06-10 | 2024-11-21 |
| CVE-2021-1257 | A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco DNA Center Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attack to manipulate an authenticated user into executing malicious actions without their awareness or consent. The vulnerability is due to insufficient CSRF protections for the web-based management interface of an affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by persuading a web-based management user to | [email protected] | 8.8 | 0.12% | 2021-01-20 | 2025-07-23 |
| CVE-2020-7343 | Missing Authorization vulnerability in McAfee Agent (MA) for Windows prior to 5.7.1 allows local users to block McAfee product updates by manipulating a directory used by MA for temporary files. The product would continue to function with out-of-date detection files. | [email protected] | 5.5 | 0.15% | 2021-01-18 | 2024-11-21 |
| CVE-2019-3613 | DLL Search Order Hijacking vulnerability in McAfee Agent (MA) prior to 5.6.4 allows attackers with local access to execute arbitrary code via execution from a compromised folder. | [email protected] | 5.9 | 0.04% | 2020-06-10 | 2024-11-21 |

| CVE-2019-1559 | If an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then calls SSL_shutdown() twice (once to send a close_notify, and once to receive one) then OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0 byte record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is received with an invalid MAC. If the application then behaves differently based on that in a way that is detectable to the remote peer, then this amounts to a padding oracle that could be used to decrypt dat | [email protected] | 5.9 | 4.96% | 2019-02-27 | 2024-11-21 |
