Description
Deployment Solution contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to gain access to unauthorized privileges. The issue is triggered when a user activates the client interface by launching the software from an icon in the Windows system tray and uses it to launch an arbitrary program. This will cause the program to run with the same privileges as the Altiris client allowing local privilege escalation.
