High CVSS 7
CVE-2025-0046
NVD analysis in progress
Incorrect directory permissions could allow a local user to escalate their privileges, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable with local access to the machine and with an ordinary user account — but only if a user opens booby-trapped content.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Weakness
- Permissions on a critical resource are too open.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
