CVE-2026-108332: Tanium addressed an improper link resolution before file access vulnerability in Threat Response Client Extension.
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 25/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.14% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
- Fixed version: Tanium threat-response-cx 1.17.802, 1.18.2732, 1.19.2213.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Tanium threat-response-cx 1.17.802, 1.18.2732, 1.19.2213 or later.
