Descriptions

In Fazecast jSerialComm, Version 2.2.2 and prior, an uncontrolled search path element vulnerability could allow a malicious DLL file with the same name of any resident DLLs inside the software installation to execute arbitrary code.

En Fazecast jSerialComm, Versión 2.2.2 y anteriores, una vulnerabilidad de elemento de ruta de búsqueda no controlada podría permitir que un archivo DLL malicioso, con el mismo nombre de cualquiera de las DLL residentes dentro de la instalación del software, ejecute código arbitrario.

This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Schneider Electric EcoStruxure IT Gateway. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of files within the Temp directory. The issue results from an incorrect assignment of privilege to a critical resource. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute code in the context of SYSTEM.
