{"cve":"CVE-2023-39520","nvd":{"published":"2023-08-07T20:15:09.987","modified":"2026-06-17T06:12:30.517","status":"Analyzed","description":"Cryptomator encrypts data being stored on cloud infrastructure. The MSI installer provided on the homepage for Cryptomator version 1.9.2 allows local privilege escalation for low privileged users, via the `repair` function. The problem occurs as the repair function of the MSI is spawning an SYSTEM Powershell without the `-NoProfile` parameter. Therefore the profile of the user starting the repair will be loaded. Version 1.9.3 contains a fix for this issue. Adding a `-NoProfile` to the powershell is a possible workaround.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":["CWE-269"],"references":["https://github.com/cryptomator/cryptomator/commit/727c32ad50c3901a6144a11cf984a3b7ebcf8b2b","https://github.com/cryptomator/cryptomator/releases/download/1.9.2/Cryptomator-1.9.2-x64.msi","https://github.com/cryptomator/cryptomator/releases/tag/1.9.3","https://github.com/cryptomator/cryptomator/security/advisories/GHSA-62gx-54j7-mjh3","https://github.com/cryptomator/cryptomator/commit/727c32ad50c3901a6144a11cf984a3b7ebcf8b2b"],"products":["cryptomator:cryptomator"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:38:35.729974749+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2023-39520","score":0.0033,"percentile":0.26128,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
