Multiple local privilege escalation vulnerabilities in the Palo Alto Networks GlobalProtectâ„¢ app allow a local user to escalate their privileges to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM on Windows and root on macOS and Linux. This enables a non-administrative user to execute arbitrary commands with administrative privileges.
The GlobalProtect app on iOS, Android, Chrome OS and GlobalProtect UWP app are not affected.
