VAR-200412-0466
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-03 22:40Dell TrueMobile 1300 WLAN Mini-PCI Card Util TrayApplet 3.10.39.0 does not properly drop SYSTEM privileges when started from the systray applet, which allows local users to gain privileges by accessing the Help functionality. It has been reported that a privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Dell TrueMobile 1300 Wireless System Tray Applet. The issue is due to the software starting with SYSTEM privileges, to enable access to the wireless hardware, and subsequently failing to drop them. This may allow a local attacker to manipulate the GUI of the vulnerable application to spawn arbitrary processes with the privileges of the affected process. Although only version 3.10.39.0 of the utility has been reported vulnerable, it is likely that other versions are prone as well. Dell TrueMobile TM 1300 WLAN is a mini-PCI wireless network card system, including a system tray Applet program to control the device
