FrameworkService.exe in McAfee Common Management Agent (CMA) 3.6.0.574 Patch 3 and earlier, as used by ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) and ProtectionPilot (PrP), allows remote attackers to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service (CMA Framework service crash) via a long invalid method in requests for the /spin//AVClient//AVClient.csp URI, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-5274.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a remote denial-of-service flaw in old McAfee management agent software. A malformed request can crash the CMA Framework service, disrupting endpoint management visibility or control. The sources do not claim code execution or active exploitation. Exposure is most likely in legacy environments still running McAfee CMA 3.6.0.574 Patch 3 or earlier with ePO or ProtectionPilot. Modern deployments may be unaffected, but the source bundle does not provide complete product lifecycle or fixed-version details. Treat this as a legacy-risk cleanup item with operational impact. It is not marked as actively exploited, but public exploit references and management-plane disruption make it unsuitable to leave exposed. Mitigation focus: Identify and retire or upgrade legacy CMA 3.6.0.574 Patch 3 and earlier installations.; Check current Trellix/McAfee guidance for the corrected version or supported migration path.; Restrict CMA management service access to trusted management networks only..
