Summary

Tanium products including TanOS, Asset, Comply, Connect, Integrity Monitor, and other products are affected by improper certificate validation (CWE-295). The products trust intermediate CA certificates whose private keys were compromised. A remote attacker without privileges or user interaction can, under high attack complexity, abuse this trust to affect confidentiality and integrity.
