Descriptions

A malicious DLL preload attack possible on NwSapSetup and Installation self-extracting program for SAP Plant Connectivity 2.3 and 15.0. It is possible that SAPSetup / NwSapSetup.exe loads system DLLs like DWMAPI.dll (located in your Syswow64 / System32 folder) from the folder the executable is in and not from the system location. The desired behavior is that system dlls are only loaded from the system folders. If a dll with the same name as the system dll is located in the same folder as the executable, this dll is loaded and code is executed.

Es posible un ataque de precarga de DLL malicioso en NwSapSetup y en el programa autoextraíble de instalación para SAP Plant Connectivity 2.3 y 15.0. Es posible que SAPSetup/NwSapSetup.exe cargue DLL del sistema como DWMAPI.dll (ubicado en la carpeta Syswow64/System32) desde la carpeta en la que se encuentra el ejecutable en lugar de desde la ubicación del sistema. El comportamiento deseable es que los dll del sistema solo se carguen desde las carpetas del sistema. Si un dll con el mismo nombre que el dll del sistema está ubicado en la misma carpeta que el ejecutable, se carga este dll y se ejecuta código.
