SonicWALL Global Security Client Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

SonicWALL Global Security Client Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

SonicWALL Global Security Client is prone to a local privilege-escalation vulnerability because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data.

A local attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM-level privileges. Successfully exploiting this issue will result in the complete compromise of affected computers.

Global Security Client 1.0.0.15 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
