## Overview

Pexip Infinity before 38.2, plus 39.0, 39.1, and 40.0, is affected by improper input validation within an internal Pexip Infinity service that allows an attacker with local access to escalate privileges to root. Exploitation requires an attacker to be able to run arbitrary code on a node by either achieving remote code execution via some other vulnerability or having administrative access to the operating system.

## Affected

- `pexip_infinity < 38.2`
- `pexip_infinity >= 39.0, <= 39.1`
- `pexip_infinity = 40.0`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `pexip_infinity 38.2`
