Impact

This vulnerability presents a moderate real-world risk despite its 5.8 CVSS score. The attack vector is network-based and unauthenticated access is not required-however, exploitation mandates high privilege (PR:H) within the Runzero Platform, significantly limiting the attacker pool. Attack complexity is high (AC:H), further reducing exploitation likelihood. The EPSS score and KEV status are not provided in the input, preventing assessment of empirical exploitation trends or CISA priority designation. However, the scope boundary violation (S:C) is particularly concerning in multi-tenant SaaS environments, as a compromised high-privilege account can leak sensitive remediation and asset data across organizational silos. The confidentiality impact is high (C:H), indicating exposure of sensitive operational security information. For organizations using Runzero in multi-tenant deployments with stringent data isolation requirements, this is a priority fix; for single-organization deployments or those with strong administrative access controls, the risk is lower but not negligible. The high-privilege requirement effectively gates exploitation to insider threats or accounts compromised via lateral movement, making post-authentication access control a critical detection point.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A threat actor compromises a Runzero Platform administrative account through credential theft or phishing, then leverages the high-privilege credentials to configure or manipulate MCP agents to query remediation and asset information from organizations other than the one the account legitimately administers. Due to the improper authorization controls, the MCP agent returns sensitive cross-organizational data without enforcing scope boundaries. The attacker exfiltrates this data to reconnaissance competitors, support business espionage, or identify high-value targets across multiple customer organizations. No public exploit code has been identified, but the flaw is straightforward enough to exploit once administrative access is obtained, making this a credible post-compromise lateral escalation attack.

AnalysisAIv1 – Apr 07, 2026

Runzero Platform versions prior to 4.0.260202.0 allow authenticated administrators with high privileges to access remediation and asset information across organizational boundaries through MCP agents, exposing sensitive data from unauthorized organization scopes. The vulnerability stems from improper authorization controls (CWE-863) and requires high-privilege account compromise to exploit, carrying a CVSS score of 5.8 (Medium). Vendor-released patch version 4.0.260202.0 resolves this issue.

RemediationAI

Upgrade Runzero Platform immediately to version 4.0.260202.0 or later, which includes the authorization fix for MCP agent scope validation. Organizations unable to patch immediately should review administrative access logs for high-privilege accounts accessing MCP agents and monitor for cross-organizational remediation or asset data queries that may indicate exploitation. Implement network-level restrictions limiting MCP agent communication to authorized organizational scopes if platform-level granular access controls are available. Consult the vendor advisory at https://www.runzero.com/advisories/runzero-platform-mcp-infoleak-cve-2026-5374/ for detailed deployment guidance and any interim mitigations provided by runZero.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The Runzero Platform uses MCP (Multi-platform Configuration Protocol or similar agent framework) agents to retrieve and manage remediation and asset inventory information. The vulnerability exists in the authorization layer that validates whether an authenticated user/agent has permission to access resources belonging to specific organizations. CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization) indicates that the platform failed to properly enforce scope boundaries-specifically, it did not verify that MCP agent requests for remediation and asset data were limited to the authenticated user's authorized organization scope. Instead, agents could query and retrieve sensitive information from outside their intended organizational context. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C) indicates the flaw is reachable over the network but requires high-privilege authentication, high attack complexity, and impacts scope (affecting other organizational contexts) with confidentiality impact. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:runzero:platform:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* indicates all versions of the Runzero Platform are potentially affected prior to the fix.
