Descriptions
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6 and 4.6.1 mishandles library loading, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka ".NET Framework Remote Code Execution Vulnerability."
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6 y 4.6.1 no maneja correctamente la carga de librerías, lo que permite a usuarios locales obtener privilegios a través de una aplicación manipulada, también conocida como ".NET Framework Remote Code Execution Vulnerability".
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft .NET Framework. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious web page or open a malicious directory or device.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of a specific named DLL used by .NET Framework. By providing a directory with this specific DLL, an attacker is able to force the process to load an arbitrary DLL. This allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the process.
A DLL side loading vulnerability was found in the .NET Framework version 4.6 when running on Windows Vista or Windows 7. This issue can be exploited by luring a victim into opening an Office document from the attacker's share. An attacker can use this issue to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the target user. This can potentially result in the attacker taking complete control of the affected system. If the WebDAV Mini-Redirector is enabled, it is possible to exploit this issue over the internet. This issue can be exploited even if the Office document is opened in Protected View.
