Description

NOD32 Antivirus contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to gain access to unauthorized privileges. The issue is triggered when the program does not drop its SYSTEM privileges before allowing a user to use the "Restore to..." feature to restore a quarantined file. This can be exploited to write a file to an arbitrary directory with SYSTEM privileges if a file with the given filename does not already exist. This flaw may lead to a loss of integrity.
