HIGH 8.8

DescriptionCVE.org

Multiple vulnerabilities on affected versions of Zscaler Client Connector allow local privilege escalation, giving an unprivileged user the ability to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context.

AnalysisAI

Local privilege escalation in Zscaler Client Connector enables a standard (non-administrative) local user to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context via multiple improper privilege handling flaws (CWE-280). The scope change captured in the CVSS vector (S:C) reflects that exploitation breaks the security boundary of the Client Connector's privileged agent process, extending impact beyond the attacker's initial user context to full High-rated confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation	Exploitation requires an authenticated local user session on the target endpoint - specifically a non-administrative OS account, consistent with CVSS PR:L. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment	The CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 is driven primarily by the scope change (S:C) and the full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact triad at High, meaning successful exploitation fully compromises the privileged Zscaler agent component. … 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	The primary remediation is to update Zscaler Client Connector to the patched version documented in the vendor's 2026 release summary at https://help.zscaler.com/zscaler-client-connector/client-connector-app-release-summary-2026. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
