<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Panda Security URL Filtering Privilege Escalation</TITLE><META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></HEAD><BODY>* CVE: CVE-2015-7378 * Vendor: Panda Security * Reported by: Kyriakos Economou * Date of Release: 05/04/2016 * Affected Products: Multiple * Affected Version: Panda Security URL Filtering < v4.3.1.9 * Fixed Version: Panda Security URL Filtering v4.3.1.9 Description: All Panda Security 2016 Home User products for Windows are vulnerable to privilege escalation, which allows a local attacker to execute code as SYSTEM from any account (Guest included), thus completely compromising the affected host. Affected Products: Panda Gold Protection 2016 v16.0.1 Panda Global Protection 2016 v16.0.1 Panda Internet Security 2016 v16.0.1 Panda Antivirus Pro 2016 v16.0.1 Panda Free Antivirus v16.0.1 Impact: A local attacker can elevate his privileges from any user account and execute code as SYSTEM. Technical Details: By default all the aforementioned products install (current version:4.3.0.4), which creates a service named 'panda_url_filtering' that runs as SYSTEM. The executable modules are by default installed in "C:ProgramDataPanda Security URL Filtering" directory. However, the ACLs assigned to the directory itself, and to the rest of the installed files, allow any user to modify those files and/or substitute them with malicious ones. A local attacker can easily execute code with SYSTEM account privileges by modifying or substituting the main executable module of this service, 'Panda_URL_Filteringb.exe', which will run at the next reboot of the host.
