SYSTEM code execution via uncontrolled DLL search
Published Jan 27, 2026 · Updated Jan 27, 2026
DLL search-path hijacking in FUJIFILM Business Innovation beat-access for Windows 3.0.3 and earlier allows local users to run code as SYSTEM. When the product is installed outside its default folder, its DLL lookup can load a planted library from an uncontrolled directory; the vendor has not identified the DLL or loading process. Exploitation requires low-privileged local access and user interaction, while the vendor states that default-folder installations are unaffected.
