    NOD32 local privilege escalation vulnerability

    Not affected: > Version 2.51.26
    Tested on: Winxp sp2
    Risk: Average

    To escalate the system privilage, the option 'quarentine a file' in NOD32 can be exploited & a malicious file can be copied to the quarentine and using the 'restore to...' option it can be dropped to the directory in which the STSTEM user just had read-only permession.

    Note: from lower privilege, this trick can write a file to any directory in which the user has read-only access to but can't overwrite a file if the file-name already exists.

    Vendor Website: www.eset.com
    Vender reported: Mar 24, 2006
    Patch release: Apr 4, 2006 (Version 2.51.26)
