Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires three concrete conditions: (1) the attacker already holds a valid, interactive low-privilege session on the TSplus terminal/remote desktop server (local access, AV:L/PR:L); (2) the autostart1.tscr login script(s) in the shared themes directory are writable by under-privileged users - the incorrect-permissions misconfiguration that is the root cause (CWE-276); and (3) a higher-privileged or different victim user must subsequently log in using the same theme or operating mode (UI:P / AT:P), which is what triggers the injected commands. Limiting factors that reduce realistic risk: no remote/network exploitation is possible, an authenticated local session is mandatory, the attack is passive and cannot be forced (it waits on a victim login), and the eventual impact is bounded by the victim account's privileges - exploitation against a low-value user yields little escalation.

Impact

The vendor-supplied CVSS 4.0 vector (5.4, Medium) describes a local, low-complexity attack requiring an existing low-privilege session (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L) plus passive user interaction (UI:P) and a specific attack requirement (AT:P), yielding high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system (VC:H/VI:H/VA:H) with no subsequent-system scope impact (SC:N/SI:N/SA:N). No EPSS score, CISA KEV listing, or public proof-of-concept was provided in the input, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no evidence of active exploitation. This is a realistic but conditional insider/post-compromise threat rather than a mass-exploitation priority: it is gated behind already having a valid session on a multi-user terminal/RDS server AND a higher-value user subsequently logging in with the same theme or operating mode. The signals are internally consistent (all point to local, authenticated, interaction-dependent exploitation), so there is no CVSS-versus-reality conflict - but the absence of EPSS/KEV/POC data means exploitation likelihood cannot be quantified, only reasoned to be low for opportunistic attackers and moderate in shared/hostile-insider deployments. Affected version and patch data are missing from the input and must be confirmed with TSplus/INCIBE.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A low-privileged user with a valid session on a shared TSplus Remote Access server edits a world-writable autostart1.tscr login script in the shared themes directory, inserting attacker-controlled commands. When an administrator or higher-privileged user next logs in using that same theme or operating mode, the injected commands run in that victim's security context, enabling lateral movement or privilege escalation. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis; the attack requires only local file-write access and a standard scripting technique.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 14, 2026

Local privilege escalation in TSplus Remote Access allows an authenticated low-privilege user to modify writable autostart1.tscr login scripts in the shared themes directory, then wait for another user-including a higher-privileged one-to log in with the same theme or operating mode, at which point the injected commands execute in that victim's security context. Exploitation requires three conditions: a valid interactive session on the terminal/remote desktop server, misconfigured permissions on the shared script files (CWE-276), and a subsequent victim login; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis. The vendor rates this CVSS 4.0 5.4 (Medium) with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Implement the following compensating controls: (1) Immediately correct file permissions on all autostart1.tscr files in the shared themes directory so that only privileged administrators can write to them (e.g., remove write access for standard users and groups). Verify that parent directories and theme subfolders are similarly restricted-trade-off: legitimate theme customization by non-admins will be blocked, and you must document the new permission model. (2) Audit existing autostart1.tscr files for unauthorized modifications (hash comparison against known-good baselines) and restore clean copies from a trusted source; this may disrupt customized themes if legitimate changes exist. (3) Consider disabling shared themes or restricting them to a single trusted administrator account until permissions are corrected-trade-off: reduces functionality for multi-user environments. (4) Monitor for suspicious script modifications or unexpected logon-triggered process execution via file integrity monitoring and EDR.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability stems from incorrect default permissions (CWE-276) on the autostart1.tscr files located in the shared themes directory of TSplus Remote Access. These .tscr scripts are automatically executed at user login to apply theme or operating-mode settings. Because the files are writable by users without sufficient privileges, any authenticated local user can inject arbitrary commands into the script. When another user logs in using the same theme or operating mode, the script runs in that user's security context, enabling lateral movement or privilege escalation depending on the victim's rights. The attack is purely local (AV:L) and passive-it cannot be forced and depends on a victim login (UI:P / AT:P). The CVSS 4.0 vector rates it 5.4 with high C/I/A on the vulnerable system and no scope change. The independent assessment (CVSS 3.1: AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H) confirms the local, low-privilege, user-interaction-dependent nature and bounded impact.

DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability due to incorrect permissions in TSplus Remote Access shared login scripts. The autostart1.tscr files, located in the shared themes directory, allow users without sufficient privileges to write to them. A local attacker with a valid session on the terminal or remote desktop server could modify these files to execute arbitrary commands within another user’s security context when that user logs in using the same theme or operating mode. Depending on the affected user’s privileges, exploitation could allow lateral movement between users or privilege escalation.

Attack Technique

Privilege escalation occurs when an attacker leverages flaws in access control mechanisms to gain permissions beyond what they were originally granted.
