    Patch

    Palo Alto NetworksがGlobalProtectアプリのCVE-2026-0307の修正バージョンを更新した(米国時間10/17)。 ローカルの一般ユーザーが、WindowsではSYSTEM、macOSとLinuxではrootの権限を取れてしまう問題で、iOS・Android・ChromeOS向けは影響しないとのこと。 修正バージョンは、Windows・macOSが6.3.3-h16または6.2.8-h15以降、Linuxが6.3.3-h15以降で、6.0系の6.0.15は10/29に提供予定とのこと。 アプリだけでなくPAN-OSやPrisma Accessも更新しないと修正が完了しない点に注意したい。 悪用は確認されておらず、回避策もないとのこと。 VPNのクライアントは利用者の端末に広く入っているので、アプリとファイアウォールの両方を確認しておくと抜けが防げる。 #PaloAltoNetworks #GlobalProtect #脆弱性 https://security.paloaltonetworks.com/CVE-2026-0307
