Description
Razer Synapse 3 Macro Module Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Razer Synapse 3. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Razer Synapse Service. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the service to delete arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-26374.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability exists in the Razer Synapse 3 Macro Module, specifically within the Razer Synapse Service. It allows a local attacker who already has the ability to execute low-privileged code on the system to escalate their privileges. The attacker can create a symbolic link to abuse the service, enabling them to delete arbitrary files and ultimately execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM-level privileges.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

If exploited, this vulnerability can allow an attacker with limited access to gain full SYSTEM privileges on the affected machine. This means the attacker could execute any code with the highest level of permissions, potentially leading to complete control over the system, unauthorized data access, modification, or deletion, and disruption of system operations.
