In the affected version of the 1E Client, an ordinary user could subvert downloaded instruction resource files, e.g., to substitute a harmful script. by replacing a resource script file created by an instruction at run time with a malicious script. The 1E Clients temporary directory is now locked down in the released patch.
Resolution: This has been fixed in patch Q23094
This issue has also been fixed in the Mac Client in updated versions of Non-Windows release v8.1.2.62 - please re-download from the 1E Support site.
Customers with Mac Client versions higher than v8.1 will need to upgrade to v23.11 to remediate this vulnerability.

Web servers, FTP servers, and similar servers may store a set of files underneath a “root” directory that is accessible to the server’s users. Applications may store sensitive files underneath this root without also using access control to limit which users may request those files, if any. Alternately, an application might package multiple files or directories into an archive file (e.g., ZIP or tar), but the application might not exclude sensitive files that are underneath those directories. In cloud technologies and containers, this weakness might present itself in the form of misconfigured storage accounts that can be read or written by a public or anonymous user.
