Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A security vulnerability has been detected in SecureAge CatchPulse up to 10.9.1. Impacted is an unknown function in the library saappctl.sys of the component IOCTL Handler. The manipulation leads to information disclosure. Local access is required to approach this attack. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
AnalysisAI
Information disclosure in SecureAge CatchPulse (versions up to 10.9.1) is triggered through an improperly secured IOCTL handler within the saappctl.sys kernel-mode driver, allowing a low-privileged local user to extract sensitive data from the driver's memory space. A public proof-of-concept exploit exists per VulDB reporting, increasing the likelihood of opportunistic local use - particularly as a reconnaissance step within a broader privilege escalation chain. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Local authenticated access is required - CVSS PR:L confirms a low-privileged OS account (standard user) is sufficient; no administrative rights are needed to trigger the vulnerability. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.3 base score (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) reflects a low-severity, locally exploitable information disclosure with no integrity or availability impact and a constrained confidentiality loss. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A low-privileged attacker with a local user account on a Windows endpoint running SecureAge CatchPulse up to version 10.9.1 opens a handle to the saappctl.sys driver device and sends a crafted IOCTL code targeting the vulnerable handler, causing the driver to return sensitive memory contents or internal state data. A public proof-of-concept document is available from a University of Idaho SharePoint resource (linked in VulDB), providing a ready reference for replicating the technique. … |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
