CVE-2023-1862 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.3/10 on the CVSS scale. Cloudflare WARP client for Windows (up to v2023.3.381.0) allowed a malicious actor to remotely access the warp-svc.exe binary due to an insufficient access control policy on an IPC Named Pipe. This would have enabled an attacker to trigger WARP connect and disconnect commands, as well as obtaining network diagnostics and application configuration from the target's device. EPSS estimates a 0.75% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
