Description:
seppi has reported a weakness in DeviceLock, which potentially can be exploited by malicious, local users to bypass certain security restrictions.
The weakness is caused due to improper restrictions when no permissions have been specified for a harddrive. This can be exploited to bypass any restrictions applied by the NTFS file system, and gain read and write access to the raw file system.
The weakness has been reported in version 5.73 (prior to Build 305). Prior versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Update to version 5.73 Build 305.
