CVE-2024-45770

What is CVE-2024-45770?

A vulnerability has been identified in the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) system that can lead to privilege escalation. This issue arises due to the pmpost tool, which is responsible for logging system messages. Under specific conditions, this tool operates with elevated privileges, making it susceptible to exploitation. If an attacker manages to gain access to a compromised PCP system account, they can potentially exploit this flaw to gain unauthorized access to sensitive system functionalities, thereby increasing the impact of the breach. Organizations using affected versions of PCP should assess their risk posture and implement the recommended security measures.
