Vulnerabilities

An issue in the Trend Micro Apex One agent could allow an attacker who has previously acquired administrative rights via other means to bypass the protection by using a specifically crafted DLL during a specific update process. Please note: an attacker must first obtain administrative access on the target system via another method in order to exploit this.

A security agent link following vulnerability in the Trend Micro Apex One agent could allow a local attacker to quarantine a file, delete the original folder and replace with a junction to an arbitrary location, ultimately leading to an arbitrary file dropped to an arbitrary location. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

A link following vulnerability in the scanning function of Trend Micro Apex One agent could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

An improper access control vulnerability in the Trend Micro Apex One agent could allow a local attacker to gain elevated privileges and create arbitrary directories with arbitrary ownership.

An uncontrolled search path element vulnerability in the Trend Micro Apex One Server installer could allow an attacker to achieve a remote code execution state on affected products.

A vulnerability exists in Trend Micro Maximum Security 2022 (17.7) wherein a low-privileged user can write a known malicious executable to a specific location and in the process of removal and restoral an attacker could replace an original folder with a mount point to an arbitrary location, allowing a escalation of privileges on an affected system.

A link following vulnerability in the Damage Cleanup Engine component of Trend Micro Apex One and Trend Micro Apex One as a Service could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges by creating a symbolic link and abusing the service to delete a file. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

An arbitrary file deletion vulnerability in the Damage Cleanup Engine component of Trend Micro Apex One and Trend Micro Apex One as a Service could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges and delete files on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

Affected builds of Trend Micro Apex One and Apex One as a Service contain a monitor engine component that is complied without the /SAFESEH memory protection mechanism which helps to monitor for malicious payloads. The affected component's memory protection mechanism has been updated to enhance product security.

A security agent directory traversal vulnerability in Trend Micro Apex One and Apex One as a Service could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

An improper handling of exceptional conditions vulnerability in Trend Micro Apex One and Apex One as a Service could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

A Time-of-Check Time-Of-Use vulnerability in the Trend Micro Apex One and Apex One as a Service agent could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

A memory corruption vulnerability in the Unauthorized Change Prevention service of Trend Micro Apex One and Apex One as a Service could allow a local attacker to elevate privileges on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

An out-of-bounds access vulnerability in the Unauthorized Change Prevention service of Trend Micro Apex One and Apex One as a Service could allow a local attacker to elevate privileges on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

An Out-of-bounds read vulnerability in Trend Micro Apex One and Apex One as a Service could allow a local attacker to disclose sensitive information on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. This is similar to, but not the same as CVE-2022-44647.

An Out-of-bounds read vulnerability in Trend Micro Apex One and Apex One as a Service could allow a local attacker to disclose sensitive information on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. This is similar to, but not the same as CVE-2022-44648.

Backup archives were found to be encrypted with a static password across different installations, which suggest the same password may be used in all virtual appliance instances of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Director 1.1.

A command injection vulnerability exists in Trend Micro Deep Discovery Director 1.1 that allows an attacker to restore accounts that can access the pre-configuration console.

Configuration and database backup archives are not signed or validated in Trend Micro Deep Discovery Director 1.1.
