{"cve":"CVE-2026-64954","nvd":{"published":"2026-08-12T05:19:17.893","modified":"2026-10-24T16:10:00.153","status":"Awaiting Analysis","description":"Velociraptor allows scheduling new collections via VQL queries in notebooks. For a user to schedule a new collection, they require the COLLECT_CLIENT permission. However, this is not enforced when the user can run a VQL query which resets the authorization provider.\n\nThis allows a user who can run arbitrary VQL (usually with the \"analyst\" role) to launch new collections (usually requires the \"investigator\" role). This vulnerability is an escalation from an analyst to investigator role.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N","score":8.2},"cwes":["CWE-862"],"references":["http://docs.velociraptor.app/announcements/advisories/cve-2026-64954/","https://github.com/Velocidex/velociraptor/commit/d7de958e846d3742a7a3a8538fd463e4f12fc528"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-24T16:53:35.584907681+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-64954","score":0.00308,"percentile":0.23396,"date":"2026-10-25"},"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).
