What fixes it

A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.

Description

The Okta RADIUS Agent Windows installer assigns write permissions to the NT SERVICE\ALL SERVICES and CREATOR OWNER security principals on the directories containing the agent configuration, AES encryption key, and logs. These permissions allow any local service account on the host to read the AES encryption key and the encrypted Okta API token.
