CVE-2026-12410 Aug 05, 14:14 HIGH PATCH This Week

Privilege escalation in CCleaner's Uninstaller component on Windows allows a local low-privileged attacker to gain SYSTEM-level access by planting an NTFS symlink or directory junction before or during application uninstallation. The uninstaller executes file deletion with elevated (SYSTEM) integrity and follows the attacker-controlled link without validation, redirecting destructive operations to arbitrary system paths. No public exploit or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis; Gen Digital has released a fix in CCleaner 7.10.1464.
