      <title>CVE-2024-5102 — Elevation of Privelage via symlinked file in Avast Antivirus</title>
      <link>https://cve.radiocsirt.org/vuln/cve-2024-5102</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Avast Antivirus&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A sym-linked file accessed via the repair function in Avast Antivirus &amp;lt;24.2 on Windows may allow user to elevate privilege to delete arbitrary files or run processes as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. The vulnerability exists within the &amp;#34;Repair&amp;#34; (settings -&amp;gt; troubleshooting -&amp;gt; repair) feature, which attempts to delete a file in the current user&amp;#39;s AppData directory as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. A low-privileged user can make a pseudo-symlink and a junction folder and point to a file on the system. This can provide a low-privileged user an Elevation of Privilege to win a race-condition which will re-create the system files and make Windows callback to a specially-crafted file which could be used to launch a privileged shell instance.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This issue affects Avast Antivirus prior to 24.2.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
