Uplay 92.0.0.6280 – Local Privilege Escalation
"C:Program Files (x86)UbisoftUbisoft Game Launcher" has insecure permissions that allow all BUILTIN-USER to have full permission. An attacker can replace the vulnerable executable file with a malicious file.
Mitigation:
Apply proper permissions to the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher" directory to restrict access to privileged users only. Regularly update Uplay software to the latest version.
