Descriptions

The FTL Server (tibftlserver), FTL C API, FTL Golang API, FTL Java API, and FTL .Net API components of TIBCO Software Inc.'s TIBCO FTL - Community Edition, TIBCO FTL - Developer Edition, and TIBCO FTL - Enterprise Edition contain a vulnerability that theoretically allows a low privileged attacker with local access on the Windows operating system to insert malicious software. The affected component can be abused to execute the malicious software inserted by the attacker with the elevated privileges of the component. This vulnerability results from the affected component searching for run-time artifacts outside of the installation hierarchy. Affected releases are TIBCO Software Inc.'s TIBCO FTL - Community Edition: versions 6.5.0 and below, TIBCO FTL - Developer Edition: versions 6.5.0 and below, and TIBCO FTL - Enterprise Edition: versions 6.5.0 and below.

Los componentes FTL Server (tibftlserver), FTL C API, FTL Golang API, FTL Java API y FTL .Net API de TIBCO Software Inc. TIBCO FTL - Community Edition, TIBCO FTL - Developer Edition y TIBCO FTL - Enterprise Edition contienen una vulnerabilidad que teóricamente permite que un atacante poco privilegiado y con acceso local en el sistema operativo Windows inserte software malicioso. Se puede abusar del componente afectado para ejecutar el software malicioso insertado por el atacante con los privilegios elevados del componente. Esta vulnerabilidad es debido a que el componente afectado busca artefactos en tiempo de ejecución fuera de la jerarquía de instalación. Las versiones afectadas son TIBCO FTL - Community Edition de TIBCO Software Inc.: versiones 6.5.0 y por debajo, TIBCO FTL - Developer Edition: versiones 6.5.0 y por debajo, y TIBCO FTL - Enterprise Edition: versiones 6.5.0 y por debajo
