CVE-2024-31954
Because it is possible to tamper with the directory and DLL files used during the installation process, an attacker can escalate privileges through arbitrary code execution.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.21%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
