T1574Hijack Execution Flow×1
Adversaries may execute their own malicious payloads by hijacking the way operating systems run programs. Hijacking execution flow can be for the purposes of persistence, since this hijacked execution may reoccur over time. Adversaries may also use these mechanisms to elevate privileges or evade defenses, such as application control or other restrictions on execution.

CVE-2026-34926 (CVSS 6.7, CWE-23 Relative Path Traversal) affects Apex One On-Premise server and agent builds below 17079. An authenticated attacker who has already obtained administrative credentials to the Apex One management server traverses the directory structure to modify a key table, injecting malicious code that the management server then distributes to all enrolled agent endpoints via the product's built-in update mechanism — one compromised management console results in fleet-wide code execution on every managed endpoint. The exploitation prerequisite (admin credentials to the Apex One server) does not reduce urgency: CISA added CVE-2026-34926 to KEV on 2026-05-21 following confirmed ITW exploitation, and management server admin accounts are a high-value target for credential theft campaigns. JPCERT/CC confirmed exploitation in the wild on 2026-05-22; CISA added CVE-2026-34926 to KEV on 2026-05-21. Fixed: server and agent build 17079 per Trend Micro KA-0023430. The Apex One as a Service (SaaS) variant is not affected. Until patched, restrict local-network access to the Apex One management console to a dedicated management VLAN; treat the console host as Tier-0 infrastructure given its fleet-wide code distribution capability. Technique: T1574 Hijack Execution Flow via trusted software update path.
Trend Micro Incorporated has reported that attacks exploiting the relative path traversal vulnerability in TrendAI Apex One(On Premise) (CVE-2026-34926) have been observed in the wild.
JPCERT/CC
a potential attacker must have access to the Apex One Server and already obtained administrative credentials to the server via some other method to exploit this vulnerability.
