Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability allowing local privilege escalation to the Reporter service context.
AnalysisAI
Veeam ONE's Reporter service exposes an improper privilege management flaw (CWE-269) that enables a locally authenticated, high-privileged user to escalate into the Reporter service's security context, achieving full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. All versions of the product appear affected per the wildcard CPE string, and the vulnerability was responsibly disclosed via HackerOne. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
Veeam ONE (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:veeam:one:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is a Windows-based monitoring, reporting, and analytics platform for Veeam backup infrastructure. The Reporter service is a distinct component responsible for generating backup reports and analytics, typically running under its own Windows service account. The root cause is CWE-269 (Improper Privilege Management), which arises when software fails to correctly assign, validate, or enforce privilege boundaries during transitions between security contexts. In practice, this class of flaw commonly manifests as insecure service binary permissions, unsafe deserialization of privileged objects, inadequate ACLs on service-accessible resources, or unguarded inter-process communication channels that allow a caller to impersonate or inject into the service context. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H) confirms local-only exploitation with no special attack requirements beyond high-privilege access.
RemediationAI
Apply the vendor-supplied patch documented in the Veeam knowledge base article at https://www.veeam.com/kb4892; the exact fixed version number must be confirmed from that advisory, as it was not available in the source data. As compensating controls while patching is pending, restrict local interactive and remote desktop access to Veeam ONE servers to only the minimum set of authorized administrators, thereby reducing the pool of accounts that satisfy the PR:H prerequisite. Audit the Reporter service account using the principle of least privilege - remove any permissions not strictly required for its function - so that successful escalation yields minimal additional access. Enable Windows event logging and auditing for service context changes and anomalous process creation under the Reporter service account to detect exploitation attempts. Note that none of these mitigations eliminate the underlying vulnerability; patching from the vendor advisory remains the definitive fix.
