EUVD-2026-74175

No EUVD known-exploited evidence

The Okta Hyperdrive Integration plugin resolves a required assembly using a registry path within the current user's hive without integrity verification. The referenced path is loaded via Assembly.LoadFrom without signature validation, resulting in an unverified assembly executing within the context of the host process or elevated installer.

What, why and how

The Okta Hyperdrive Integration plugin resolves a required assembly using a registry path within the current user's hive without integrity verification. The referenced path is loaded via Assembly.LoadFrom without signature validation, resulting in an unverified assembly executing within the context of the host process or elevated installer.

What

The Okta Hyperdrive Integration plugin resolves a required assembly using a registry path within the current user's hive without integrity verification. The referenced path is loaded via Assembly.LoadFrom without signature validation, resulting in an unverified assembly executing within the context of the host process or elevated installer.

Why

The product searches for critical resources using an externally-supplied search path that can point to resources that are not under the product's direct control.

How

An attacker operating through local access may attempt exploitation with low privileges. If successful, the issue may gain additional privileges.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path
local access → Untrusted Search Path → gain additional privileges
Attack surface
Local
Privileges required
Low: a basic authenticated account is required
User interaction

Attack complexity
High: exploitation depends on specific conditions
Security boundary
Changed: exploitation can affect a different security authority
Weakness
?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-426 ↗

CWE-426: Untrusted Search Path. The product searches for critical resources using an externally-supplied search path that can point to resources that are not under the product's direct control.

CVSS vector
?CVSS means Common Vulnerability Scoring System. The vector records the metric values used to calculate technical severity.
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N

Common Vulnerability Scoring System 3.1: the compact vector below is decoded into plain language.

AVLocalAttack vector: The attacker needs local access to the vulnerable system.ACHighAttack complexity: Successful exploitation depends on specific conditions outside the attacker's direct control.PRLowPrivileges required: The attacker needs basic user-level privileges.UINoneUser interaction: No action by another user is required.SChangedScope: The attack can affect a component governed by a different security authority.CHighConfidentiality impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.IHighIntegrity impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.ANoneAvailability impact: No direct loss is represented by this metric.
Post-exploitation / living off the land
The issue can support a local privilege or sandbox boundary transition; normal system utilities may then be available in the gained context.
