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 a staging mode. The issue lies in the ability to change the configuration based on the presence of a file in an user-controlled location. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges to resources normally protected from the application. Was ZDI-CAN-5359."

En primer lugar, un atacante debe obtener la capacidad de ejecutar código de bajos privilegios en el sistema objetivo para explotar esta vulnerabilidad. Este error en concreto existe en el manejo de un modo provisional. El problema radica en la capacidad de cambiar la configuración en base a la presencia de un archivo en una ubicación controlada por el usuario. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para escalar privilegios a recursos que suelen estar protegidos de la aplicación. Anteriormente era ZDI-CAN-5359."
