Executive Summary

This vulnerability is an improper access control issue in Tanium Interact.

It affects versions prior to Update 7 (v3.5.90) of the 2025H1 Release of Interact. [1]

Impact Analysis

However, the vulnerability has a low severity score (CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.1) and only allows read-only access without affecting integrity or availability. [1]

Mitigation Strategies

The vulnerability is resolved in Tanium Interact Update 7 (v3.5.90) and later versions. Immediate steps include upgrading your Interact installation to Update 7 or a more recent version. No other workarounds or mitigations are available. [1]
