Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-05-02 15:30 – Updated: 2024-05-02 15:30

Details

The affected AutomationManager.AgentService.exe application contains a TOCTOU race condition vulnerability that allows standard users to create a pseudo-symlink at C:\ProgramData\N-Able Technologies\AutomationManager\Temp, which could be leveraged by an attacker to manipulate the process into performing arbitrary file deletions. We recommend upgrading to version 2.91.0.0

Severity

5.3 (Medium)
