CVE-2026-42191 NuGet MEDIUM PATCH GHSA This Month

OpenTelemetry.Exporter.OpenTelemetryProtocol versions 1.8.0 through 1.15.2 allow local attackers to inject malicious telemetry data, disclose stored telemetry payloads, or exhaust system resources by exploiting an insecure default disk retry directory that falls back to the shared system temporary path when the required directory configuration is not explicitly set. On multi-user systems, this enables attackers with read or write access to the temp directory to craft blob files that the exporter will forward to the OTLP endpoint under the application's identity, or to read exported telemetry data between transient export failures.

CVE-2024-7562 HIGH This Week

CVE-2024-7562 is an elevated privilege vulnerability in InstallShield-generated Standalone MSI installers when multiple InstallScript custom actions are configured. An authenticated local attacker can exploit this to gain high-privilege code execution on the target system. All supported versions (InstallShield 2023 R2, 2022 R2, and 2021 R2) are affected; KEV status and active exploitation data were not provided in available intelligence sources, though the local attack vector and privilege escalation impact suggest moderate real-world risk.
