Summary

The hunt_delete() VQL function in Velociraptor allows deleting hunts. Velociraptor misapplied the permission check, requiring only COLLECT_CLIENT (usually assigned to the 'investigator' role) instead of the DELETE_RESULTS permission (usually only assigned to administrators).

Risk Assessment

Users with lower privileges can delete hunts, potentially leading to loss of forensic data and compromising the integrity of investigation processes.

Recommendation

Update Velociraptor to a version where the permission check is fixed, or manually configure permissions to require DELETE_RESULTS for hunt deletion operations.
