Descriptions

Incorrect Default Permissions vulnerability in ABB e-Design allows attacker to install malicious software executing with SYSTEM permissions violating confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the target machine.

Una vulnerabilidad de Permisos Predeterminados Incorrectos en ABB e-Design permite a un atacante instalar software malicioso que es ejecutado con permisos SYSTEM, violando la confidencialidad, la integridad y la disponibilidad de la máquina de destino

This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of ABB e-Design. 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 e-Design installer. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the installer to delete a file. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM.
