Local privilege escalation via insecure folder permissions
Published Jun 14, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Local privilege escalation in Acronis Cloud Manager for Windows before 6.2.24135.272 allows local users to gain elevated privileges. An undisclosed product folder receives permissions that allow low-privileged users to modify contents across a privilege boundary. Acronis has not identified the folder or published the privileged execution path; exploitation requires local low-privileged access.
