Agent For Linux
Monthly
Local privilege escalation in Veeam Agent for Linux 13.1 allows a local low-privileged user to gain elevated privileges on hosts whose agent installation is managed by a Veeam Backup & Replication instance; standalone/unmanaged deployments are not affected. The flaw is an untrusted search path (CWE-426), the vendor has released a fix in 13.1.2, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. This is a genuine but moderate-priority issue rather than an emergency.
