Executive Summary

CVE-2026-19195 is a high-severity vulnerability in V-Secure Jingyun Antivirus 2.4.2.39 affecting the kernel driver ZyArk.sys. It involves improper access controls allowing arbitrary registry key modifications through unauthenticated IOCTL requests. The driver grants full access to all users, enabling low-privileged users to perform kernel-mode registry operations as SYSTEM without validation.

Detection Guidance

Check if ZyArk.sys is loaded by running 'sc query ZyArk' or 'driverquery /si'. Look for suspicious registry modifications under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender using 'reg query' commands.

Impact Analysis

An attacker with local access could exploit this to disable critical security features like Windows Defender by modifying registry keys. This includes turning off real-time protection, behavior monitoring, and scanning capabilities, even if Tamper Protection is active. The attack requires only standard user privileges and access to the vulnerable driver.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability allows unauthorized registry modifications, which could disable security features like Windows Defender. Such changes may violate compliance requirements under GDPR or HIPAA that mandate protection of personal or health data through adequate security measures. Unauthorized disabling of protections could lead to data breaches or unauthorized access, directly impacting regulatory compliance.

Mitigation Strategies

Update Jingyun Antivirus to the latest version if available. Disable the ZyArk.sys driver using 'sc stop ZyArk' and 'sc config ZyArk start= disabled'. Restrict user access to registry keys via Windows ACLs.
