CVE-2019-9489 is a directory traversal vulnerability affecting Trend Micro Apex One, OfficeScan XG and 11.0, and Worry-Free Business Security 10.0, 9.5, and 9.0. The flaw allows an attacker to traverse directories and modify arbitrary files on the affected product's management console. The issue impacts the management console component rather than an endpoint agent, and successful exploitation can alter files outside the intended directory scope.
