Windows Installer Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Windows store installer where WindowsApps directory is vulnerable to symbolic link attack, aka 'Microsoft Windows Store Installer Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability'.

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the Windows User Profile Service (ProfSvc) improperly handles symlinks. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could delete files and folders in an elevated context. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application that could exploit the vulnerability and delete files or folders of their choosing. The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how the Windows User Profile Service handles symlinks.

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in European Chemicals Agency IUCLID 7.10.3 on Windows. Affected is an unknown function of the file iuclid6.exe of the component Desktop Installer. The manipulation leads to incorrect default permissions. The attack needs to be approached locally. VDB-251670 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability. NOTE: The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
