Technical details

A local privilege escalation vulnerability exists in Acronis DeviceLock DLP (Windows) due to an uncontrolled search path (CWE-427), commonly known as DLL hijacking. The application fails to properly validate or restrict the search path used to load dynamic link libraries, allowing a local attacker with low privileges to place a malicious DLL in a location where it will be executed by a higher-privileged process. Successful exploitation requires minimal user interaction and allows the attacker to achieve full system compromise (High Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability impact). The issue is resolved in build 9.0.15051.93227.
