CVE-2026-107782

Status: Awaiting AnalysisHigh (8.5)—

System Informer before 4.0.26241.138 contains an incorrect authorization vulnerability in the phsvc helper that allows local attackers to reach privileged APIs by connecting from any Authenticode-signed process. Attackers can load code into a Microsoft-signed host like rundll32.exe, connect to SiSvcApiPort, and call PhSvcApiCreateService to execute code as SYSTEM.

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).

🎯 ATT&CK techniques

How this vulnerability is exploited and what the attacker gains, in MITRE ATT&CK terms.

Vulnerabilidad de autorización insuficiente (CWE-863) en acceso local con PR:L. Permite escalada a SYSTEM mediante APIs privilegiadas sin autenticación adicional, combinando inyección de código en procesos firmados (rundll32.exe) y ejecución remota de código en contexto SYSTEM.

Inferred by our analysis agent from the official description, CVSS vector and CWE, and checked by a supervisor. May contain errors.
