CVE-2020-13542

Status: ModifiedHigh (7.8)—

A local privilege elevation vulnerability exists in the file system permissions of LogicalDoc 8.5.1 installation. Depending on the vector chosen, an attacker can either replace the service binary or replace DLL files loaded by the service, both which get executed by a service thus executing arbitrary commands with System privileges.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
