Risk Analysis

This critical vulnerability in BeyondTrust Remote Support and Privileged Remote Access allows an authenticated attacker with limited privileges to access unintended resources or data. With a CVSS score of 9.9, this flaw presents an extremely high risk, as it can lead to significant data breaches and unauthorized access. The absence of an EPSS score means the exploitation likelihood is not yet quantified, but the severity demands immediate attention.

No public exploit is currently known for this vulnerability. However, it is remotely exploitable over the network with low attack complexity, requiring authenticated access with specific permissions.

Recommended Action

Organizations using BeyondTrust Remote Support and Privileged Remote Access should apply the latest security updates provided by BeyondTrust. Additionally, review and restrict user permissions to the absolute minimum required to perform their duties.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-40141 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.

Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.

A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.9.

The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
