Ivanti Policy Secure 22.x <= 22.7R1.2 Local Privilege Escalation (CVE-2025-0283)

high Nessus Plugin ID 213571

Synopsis

A NAC solution installed on the remote host is affected by a local privilege escalation vulnerability.

Description

The version of Ivanti Policy Secure installed on the remote host is 22.x prior or equal to 22.7R1.2 (Build 1485). It is, therefore, affected by a local privilege escalation vulnerability:

- A stack-based buffer overflow in Ivanti Connect Secure before version 22.7R2.5, Ivanti Policy Secure before version 22.7R1.2, and Ivanti Neurons for ZTA gateways before version 22.7R2.3 allows a local authenticated attacker to escalate their privileges. (CVE-2025-0283)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

See vendor advisory.
