Authenticated command execution via improper input validation
Published May 22, 2024 · Updated Feb 13, 2025
Privilege escalation in Qlik Sense Enterprise for Windows before 14.187.4 allows remote authenticated users to execute server commands. Improper input validation lets an existing low-privilege session assume the internal system role; Qlik has not disclosed the affected input, endpoint, or validation operation. Successful exploitation requires existing privileges and can compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the Qlik Sense server.
