CVE-2022-45798

Un vínculo que sigue a una vulnerabilidad en el componente Damage Cleanup Engine de Trend Micro Apex One y Trend Micro Apex One como Servicio podría permitir a un atacante local escalar privilegios creando un vínculo simbólico y abusando del servicio para eliminar un archivo. Tenga en cuenta: un atacante primero debe obtener la capacidad de ejecutar código con pocos privilegios en el sistema de destino para poder explotar esta vulnerabilidad.

This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Trend Micro Apex One Security Agent. 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 Damage Cleanup Engine, which runs within the Trend Micro Common Client Real-time Scan Service. By creating a junction, an attacker can abuse the service to delete a folder. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM.
