DescriptionCVE.org

Netskope was notified about a potential gap in Netskope Endpoint DLP (EPDLP) running on Windows systems. Successful exploitation of the gap could potentially allow a privileged user to send a crafted message to the EPDLP process port to trigger an integer overflow, leading to memory corruption. Successful exploitation would require the EPDLP module to be enabled in the client configuration, and that Memory Integrity is disabled. A successful exploit could potentially result in a denial-of-service, arbitrary code execution, or privilege escalation on the local machine.

AnalysisAI

Privilege escalation and arbitrary code execution affect Netskope Endpoint DLP (EPDLP) on Windows, where a privileged local user can send a crafted message to the EPDLP inter-process communication port to trigger a CWE-190 integer overflow, corrupting process memory. The vulnerability is gated behind two explicit non-default conditions - the EPDLP module must be active in the client configuration, and Windows Memory Integrity (HVCI/VBS) must be disabled on the host. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Two explicit gating conditions must both be satisfied simultaneously: (1) the EPDLP module must be enabled in the Netskope client configuration on the target endpoint, and (2) Windows Memory Integrity (HVCI/VBS) must be disabled on the host. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Real-world risk is meaningful but substantially constrained by the compounded exploitation prerequisites. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Apply the vendor-released patch documented in Netskope Security Advisory NSKPSA-2026-010 (https://support.netskope.com/s/article/Netskope-Security-Advisory-Netskope-Client-Endpoint-DLP-Security-Notice---NSKPSA-2026-010); the exact patched client version number is not present in the provided data and must be retrieved from that advisory directly. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all Windows systems running Netskope EPDLP and verify whether Windows Memory Integrity (HVCI/VBS) is currently enabled on each endpoint. …
