CWE-426

An issue was discovered in DisplayLink Core Software Cleaner Application 8.2.1956. When the drivers are updated to a newer version, the product launches a process as SYSTEM to uninstall the old version: cl_1956.exe is run as SYSTEM on the %systemroot%Temp folder, where any user can write a DLL (e.g., version.dll) to perform DLL Hijacking and elevate privileges to SYSTEM.

An issue was discovered in PureVPN through 5.19.4.0 on Windows. The client installation grants the Everyone group Full Control permission to the installation directory. In addition, the PureVPNService.exe service, which runs under NT AuthoritySYSTEM privileges, tries to load several dynamic-link libraries using relative paths instead of the absolute path. When not using a fully qualified path, the application will first try to load the library from the directory from which the application is started. As the residing directory of PureVPNService.exe is writable to all users, this makes the application susceptible to privilege escalation through DLL hijacking.

All versions up to ZXCLOUD iRAI V5.01.05 of the ZTE uSmartView product are impacted by untrusted search path vulnerability, which may allow an unauthorized user to perform unauthorized operations.

A DLL hijacking vulnerability exists in Schneider Electric’s SoMove Software and associated DTM software components in all versions prior to 2.6.2 which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.
