When configured to use the OpenVPN protocol, the \"sevpnclient\" service executes \"openvpn.exe\" using the OpenVPN config file located at %PROGRAMDATA%\\purevpn\\config\\config.ovpn. This file allows \"Write\" permissions to users in the \"Everyone\" group. An authenticated attacker may modify this file to specify a dynamic library plugin that should run for every new VPN connection attempt. This plugin will execute code in the context of the SYSTEM account.", "severity": [ { "type": "CVSS_V3", "score": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H" } ], "affected": [], "references": [ { "type": "ADVISORY", "url": "https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-10204" }, { "type": "WEB", "url": "https://github.com/VerSprite/research/blob/master/advisories/VS-2018-021.md" } ], "database_specific": { "cwe_ids": [ "CWE-732" ], "severity": "HIGH", "github_reviewed": false, "github_reviewed_at": null, "nvd_published_at": "2018-04-18T21:29:00Z" } }
