CVE-2024-31226

CVSS v3.1

4.9

Medium

VectorAV:P/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Sunshine versions 0.17.0 through 0.22.2
Description Sunshine is a self-hosted game stream host for Moonlight. Users who ran Sunshine as a service on Windows may be impacted when terminating the service if an attacker placed a file named C:Program.exe, C:Program.bat, or C:Program.cmd on the user's computer. This attack vector isn't exploitable unless the user has manually loosened ACLs on the system drive. If the user's system locale is not English, then the name of the executable will likely vary.
Recommendations For versions 0.17.0 through 0.22.2, update to version 0.23.0 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider using application control tools, like Windows Defender Application Control, AppLocker, or Software Restriction Policies, to identify and block potentially malicious software executed path interception. Alternatively, ensure that proper permissions and directory access control are set to deny users the ability to write files to the top-level directory C: and require that all executables be placed in write-protected directories.
