CVE-2019-12828: Ea Origin

High severity, CVSS 8.8. EPSS: 13.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

An issue was discovered in Electronic Arts Origin before 10.5.39. Due to improper sanitization of the origin:// and origin2:// URI schemes, it is possible to inject additional arguments into the Origin process and ultimately leverage code execution by loading a backdoored Qt plugin remotely via the platformpluginpath argument supplied with a Windows network share.

Affected products

  • Ea Origin: before 10.5.39 (fixed in 10.5.39)
