When Elastic Defend's Elastic Endpoint component processes a file name under certain system locale configurations (including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean locales) on Windows, an unhandled exception can occur during file-path handling. This causes the Elastic Endpoint process to crash and restart repeatedly, which can degrade or disable Elastic Defend's real-time malware prevention and behavioral detection capabilities on the affected host for as long as the condition persists.","published":"2026-10-06T20:17:13.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-07T13:42:52.000Z","status":"Awaiting Analysis","sourceIdentifier":"security@elastic.co","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":6.2,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-248"],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00131,"percentile":0.02708,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[{"date":"2026-10-07","score":0.00131,"percentile":0.02333}]},"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 (0.13%).
