Exploitation requires that an attacker be able to create a new file in the TeamViewer application directory; directory permissions restrict that by default.","published":"2019-10-24T16:15:20.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T02:24:27.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"cve@mitre.org","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":6.7,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-426"],"affected":["teamviewer/teamviewer"],"epss":{"score":0.00633,"percentile":0.50059,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.63%).
