Local privilege escalation via temporary-directory DLL loading
Published Jun 18, 2026 · Updated Jun 18, 2026
Uncontrolled DLL loading in ANSSI DFIR-ORC 10.2.7 and earlier allows local users to gain administrator privileges on Windows. DFIR-ORC extracts and runs from C:\Windows\Temp with administrative privileges, allowing Windows DLL search order to load an attacker-planted library from that shared directory. Exploitation requires prior local access, permission to write the DLL into the temporary directory, and privileged execution of DFIR-ORC.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
