CVE-2024-2658
Last modified
CVE-2024-2658 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.5/10 on the CVSS scale. A misconfiguration in lmadmin.exe of FlexNet Publisher versions prior to 2024 R1 (11.19.6.0) allows the OpenSSL configuration file to load from a non-existent directory. An unauthorized, locally authenticated user with low privileges can potentially create the directory and load a specially crafted openssl.conf file leading to the execution of a malicious DLL (Dynamic-Link Library) with elevated privileges.. EPSS estimates a 0.42% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
