Description:
KF has reported a privilege escalation vulnerability in BlackICE PC Protection, allowing malicious users to gain SYSTEM privileges.
The problem is that "blackd.exe" contain a boundary error in the handling of certain arguments in the configuration files. The ".ini" files are writable by any users. It is possible to cause a buffer overflow by supplying a long string in the "packetLog.fileprefix" parameter. Malicious code placed in this parameter will be executed when a log entry is generated.
This has been reported to affect version 3.6.cbz, other versions may also be affected.
