Telefonica O2 Connection Manager 8.7 Service Trusted Path Privilege Escalation
The O2 Connection Manager's service suffers from an unquoted search path issue impacting the Import WiFi 'TGCM_ImportWiFiSvc' service for Windows. This could potentially allow an authorized but non-privileged local user to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges on the system. A successful attempt would require the local user to be able to insert their code in the system root path undetected by the OS or other security applications where it could potentially be executed during application startup or reboot. If successful, the local user’s code would execute with the elevated privileges of the application.
Mitigation:
Ensure that all applications are installed in a directory with a path that does not contain spaces or special characters, and that is not writable by non-privileged users.
