Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-06-13 03:15 - Updated: 2025-06-16 12:32
Severity ?
8.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
Acer ControlCenter contains Remote Code Execution vulnerability. The program exposes a Windows Named Pipe that uses a custom protocol to invoke internal functions. However, this Named Pipe is misconfigured, allowing remote users with low privileges to interact with it and access its features. One such feature enables the execution of arbitrary programs as NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM. By leveraging this, remote attackers can execute arbitrary code on the target system with elevated privileges.

El programa expone una canalizaci\u00f3n con nombre de Windows que utiliza un protocolo personalizado para invocar funciones internas. Sin embargo, esta canalizaci\u00f3n con nombre est\u00e1 mal configurada, lo que permite a usuarios remotos con privilegios bajos interactuar con ella y acceder a sus funciones. Una de estas funciones permite la ejecuci\u00f3n de programas arbitrarios como NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM. Al aprovechar esto, los atacantes remotos pueden ejecutar c\u00f3digo arbitrario en el sistema objetivo con privilegios elevados."
