DescriptionCVE.org

.NET misconfiguration: use of impersonation vulnerability in upKeeper Solutions upKeeper Instant Privilege Access allows Hijacking a Privileged Thread of Execution.This issue affects upKeeper Instant Privilege Access: through 1.5.0.

AnalysisAI

Misconfigured .NET impersonation in upKeeper Instant Privilege Access through version 1.5.0 enables authenticated remote attackers to hijack privileged execution threads, leading to high confidentiality and integrity impact on underlying system resources. The vulnerability requires low-level privileges and presents network-based attack vector with high complexity. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and CISA SSVC framework classifies this as non-automatable with partial technical impact. EPSS data not available for risk quantification.

Technical ContextAI

This vulnerability stems from CWE-520 (Sensitive Cookie in HTTPS Session Without 'Secure' Attribute/.NET Misconfiguration), specifically involving improper configuration of .NET impersonation mechanisms. In the context of upKeeper Instant Privilege Access (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:upkeeper_solutions:upkeeper_instant_privilege_access), the application appears to expose privileged execution contexts through misconfigured impersonation settings. .NET impersonation allows an application to execute code under a different security context than the process owner, typically to temporarily elevate or delegate privileges. When misconfigured, authenticated users can exploit thread execution contexts to perform operations beyond their intended authorization scope, effectively hijacking higher-privilege threads. The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates network accessibility (AV:N) with high attack complexity (AC:H) and present attack requirements (AT:P), suggesting the exploit requires specific timing or configuration conditions to succeed.

RemediationAI

Organizations should upgrade upKeeper Instant Privilege Access to a version later than 1.5.0 that addresses the .NET impersonation misconfiguration, per the vendor advisory at https://support.upkeeper.se/hc/en-us/articles/26783542353692-CVE-2026-2450-NET-misconfiguration-use-of-impersonation. Upstream fix available per vendor advisory, though specific patched version number is not independently confirmed in available data. Until patching is completed, implement compensating controls including strict network segmentation to limit access to the upKeeper service, enhanced monitoring of privilege escalation attempts and abnormal thread execution patterns, review and restrict low-privilege user accounts that can access the application, and apply principle of least privilege to minimize potential impact of successful exploitation. Consult the vendor advisory for configuration guidance to harden .NET impersonation settings if immediate patching is not feasible.
