Plain English Summary

AI-powered analysis for quick understanding

This vulnerability allows an attacker to gain full control of a system by tricking a legitimate application into deleting a log file in a location they control. To exploit this, the attacker needs to create a specific file in a designated folder and then wait for the application to delete its logs, which it does with elevated permissions.

Technical Description

Malwarebytes AdwCleaner before v.8.7.0 runs as Administrator and performs an insecure log file delete operation in which the target location is user-controllable, allowing a non-admin user to escalate privileges to SYSTEM via a symbolic link, a related issue to CVE-2023-28892. To exploit this, an attacker must create a file in a given folder path and intercept the application log file deletion flow.
