Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a local privilege escalation issue caused by DLL hijacking. It affects Acronis DeviceLock DLP (Windows) versions before build 9.0.15051.93227. DLL hijacking occurs when an attacker places a malicious DLL file in a location where the software loads it instead of the legitimate one, allowing the attacker to execute code with elevated privileges.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can allow an attacker with limited local access to escalate their privileges on the affected system. This means the attacker could gain higher-level permissions, potentially leading to full control over the system, including the ability to access, modify, or delete sensitive data.
