Dell/Alienware Digital Delivery versions prior to 4.0.41 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability. A local non-privileged malicious user could exploit a Universal Windows Platform application by manipulating the install software package feature with a race condition and a path traversal exploit in order to run a malicious executable with elevated privileges.
Dell would like to thank Alexander Bolshev, Security Consultant, IOActive and Enrique Nissim, Senior Security Consultant, IOActive for reporting these vulnerabilities.
