    CVE-2026-108982 (GCVE-0-2026-108982)

    Vulnerability from nvd – Published: 2026-10-12 02:44 – Updated: 2026-10-13 18:26
    VLAI
    Summary
    VeraCrypt 1.26.29 (FUSE-T build) on macOS sometimes allows unintended access to decrypted data. It does not terminate the FUSE-T auxiliary service (go-nfsv4) and its associated VeraCrypt core-service helper processes when a volume is dismounted. After VeraCrypt reports the volume as dismounted, the auxiliary mount continues to serve the decrypted volume image (volume.dmg) over a loopback SMB session, and the leaked processes retain an open handle to the underlying raw device. A local user or process can therefore remount and access the decrypted volume without the passphrase, e.g., by reopening a previously accessed path (such as through a macOS Open Recent menu) or by attaching volume.dmg from the stale auxiliary mount. (The macFUSE build of VeraCrypt is not affected.)

    Summary
    The (1) IsVolumeAccessibleByCurrentUser and (2) MountDevice methods in Ntdriver.c in TrueCrypt 7.0, VeraCrypt before 1.15, and CipherShed, when running on Windows, do not check the impersonation level of impersonation tokens, which allows local users to impersonate a user at SecurityIdentify level and gain access to other users' mounted encrypted volumes.

    CVE-2026-108982 (GCVE-0-2026-108982)

    Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-10-12 02:44 – Updated: 2026-10-13 18:26
    VLAI
    Summary
    VeraCrypt 1.26.29 (FUSE-T build) on macOS sometimes allows unintended access to decrypted data. It does not terminate the FUSE-T auxiliary service (go-nfsv4) and its associated VeraCrypt core-service helper processes when a volume is dismounted. After VeraCrypt reports the volume as dismounted, the auxiliary mount continues to serve the decrypted volume image (volume.dmg) over a loopback SMB session, and the leaked processes retain an open handle to the underlying raw device. A local user or process can therefore remount and access the decrypted volume without the passphrase, e.g., by reopening a previously accessed path (such as through a macOS Open Recent menu) or by attaching volume.dmg from the stale auxiliary mount. (The macFUSE build of VeraCrypt is not affected.)

It does not terminate the FUSE-T auxiliary service (go-nfsv4) and its associated VeraCrypt core-service helper processes when a volume is dismounted. After VeraCrypt reports the volume as dismounted, the auxiliary mount continues to serve the decrypted volume image (volume.dmg) over a loopback SMB session, and the leaked processes retain an open handle to the underlying raw device. A local user or process can therefore remount and access the decrypted volume without the passphrase, e.g., by reopening a previously accessed path (such as through a macOS Open Recent menu) or by attaching volume.dmg from the stale auxiliary mount. (The macFUSE build of VeraCrypt is not affected.)"

    CVE-2015-7359 (GCVE-0-2015-7359)

    Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2017-10-02 19:00 – Updated: 2024-08-06 07:43
    VLAI
    Summary
    The (1) IsVolumeAccessibleByCurrentUser and (2) MountDevice methods in Ntdriver.c in TrueCrypt 7.0, VeraCrypt before 1.15, and CipherShed, when running on Windows, do not check the impersonation level of impersonation tokens, which allows local users to impersonate a user at SecurityIdentify level and gain access to other users' mounted encrypted volumes.
    Severity
    No CVSS data available.
