Descriptions

Local privilege escalation vulnerability potentially allowed an attacker to misuse ESET’s file operations to delete files without having proper permission.

La vulnerabilidad de escalada de privilegios local potencialmente permitió a un atacante hacer un mal uso de las operaciones de archivos de ESET para eliminar archivos sin tener el permiso adecuado.

This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of ESET Smart Security Premium. 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 ESET Service. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the service to delete a file. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM.
