CVE-2026-64954
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.
This 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

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1210Exploitation of Remote Serviceslateral movement75 % - Impacto principal
T1078Valid Accountsstealth · persistence · privilege escalation · initial access85 % - Impacto secundario
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation70 %
Acceso remoto a servicio con PR:L requiere T1210. El atacante escala de rol analyst a investigator mediante VQL; impacto principal es acceso a cuenta con permisos elevados (T1078), secundario es escalada de privilegios (T1068).
