Microsoft · Windows · CVE-2024-28240
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
GLPI-Agent versions prior to 1.7.2
Description:
A vulnerability in the GLPI-Agent, specifically affecting installations on Windows via MSI packaging, allows a local user to cause a denial of service by replacing the GLPI server URL with an incorrect one or by disabling the service. Furthermore, if the Deploy task is installed, a malicious local user can trigger privilege escalation by configuring a malicious server with its own deploy task payload. This issue is due to insufficient input validation.
Recommendations:
For versions prior to 1.7.2, update to version 1.7.2 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, edit the GLPI-Agent related key under `HKEY LOCAL MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstall` and add a `SystemComponent` DWORD value setting it to `1` to hide GLPI-Agent from installed applications.
