CVE-2020-6012 (GCVE-0-2020-6012)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2020-08-04 13:35 – Updated: 2024-08-04 08:47
VLAI
Summary
ZoneAlarm Anti-Ransomware before version 1.0.713 copies files for the report from a directory with low privileges. A sophisticated timed attacker can replace those files with malicious or linked content, such as exploiting CVE-2020-0896 on unpatched systems or using symbolic links. This allows an unprivileged user to enable escalation of privilege via local access.
Severity
No CVSS data available.
