This medium-severity CVE scores 5.9 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.1%, top 96% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
A vulnerability with a privilege management mechanism in the Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access Agent® enables a locally authenticated non-administrative user to escalate their privileges to root on macOS and Linux or NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM on Windows. This allows the user to execute arbitrary code and read sensitive information otherwise accessible only to privileged accounts.
The Prisma Access Agent on iOS, Android and Chrome OS are not affected.
