Symantec LiveUpdate Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
Symantec LiveUpdate has been reported prone to a local privilege escalation vulnerability. This issue presents itself when a LiveUpdate interactive session is created. The privileges of the process, if different from the user, are not lowered. This may allow a local attacker to employ the vulnerable LiveUpdate component to spawn arbitrary executables with the privileges of the LiveUpdate process. |
