Summary
Tanium Endpoint Configuration Toolset Solution and end-user-cx contain a local privilege escalation flaw in End-User Notifications. Improper link resolution before file access (CWE-59) and improper ownership management let a local user with low privileges gain higher privileges. A successful attacker can fully compromise confidentiality, integrity and availability.
