Cisco VPN Client Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

Cisco VPN Client is susceptible to a local privilege-escalation vulnerability. This issue is due to an unspecified flaw in the VPN client GUI application.

This issue allows local attackers to gain Local System privileges on affected computers. This facilitates the complete compromise of affected computers.

This vulnerability affects Cisco VPN Clients on Microsoft Windows. Versions prior to 4.8.01.x, with the exception of version 4.7.00.0533, are affected.
