CWE-426

An Unsafe Search Path vulnerability in FortiClient Online Installer (Windows version before 6.0.6) may allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker with control over the directory in which FortiClientOnlineInstaller.exe resides to execute arbitrary code on the system via uploading malicious .dll files in that directory.

Untrusted search path in FileZilla before 3.41.0-rc1 allows an attacker to gain privileges via a malicious ‘fzsftp’ binary in the user’s home directory.

The vulnerability is limited to the installers of Dell Encryption Enterprise versions prior to 10.4.0 and Dell Endpoint Security Suite Enterprise versions prior to 2.4.0. This issue is exploitable only during the installation of the product by an administrator. A local authenticated low privileged user potentially could exploit this vulnerability by staging a malicious DLL in the search path of the installer prior to its execution by a local administrator. This would cause loading of the malicious DLL, which would allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of an administrator.

DLL Search Order Hijacking vulnerability in Microsoft Windows client in McAfee Total Protection (MTP) Free Antivirus Trial 16.0.R18 and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary code via execution from a compromised folder placed by an attacker with administrator rights.
