Esta vulnerabilidad permite a un usuario normal modificar el archivo de configuraci\u00f3n de la aplicaci\u00f3n para redirigir las comprobaciones de actualizaci\u00f3n a un servidor arbitrario, que luego puede explotarse junto con CVE-2024-29209 para ejecutar c\u00f3digo arbitrario con privilegios elevados. El problema surge de una configuraci\u00f3n de permisos incorrecta en el archivo de configuraci\u00f3n de la aplicaci\u00f3n, que se almacena en un directorio com\u00fan al que pueden acceder todos los usuarios. Este archivo incluye par\u00e1metros cr\u00edticos, como la URL del servidor de actualizaci\u00f3n. De forma predeterminada, la aplicaci\u00f3n no aplica controles de acceso adecuados a este archivo, lo que permite a los usuarios sin privilegios modificarlo sin consentimiento administrativo. Un atacante con acceso de usuario regular puede alterar la URL del servidor de actualizaci\u00f3n especificada en el archivo de configuraci\u00f3n para que apunte a un servidor malicioso. Cuando la aplicaci\u00f3n realice su pr\u00f3xima verificaci\u00f3n de actualizaci\u00f3n, se comunicar\u00e1 con el servidor controlado por el atacante. Si el sistema tambi\u00e9n es vulnerable a CVE-2024-29209, el atacante puede entregar un paquete de actualizaci\u00f3n malicioso que, cuando se ejecuta, le otorga privilegios elevados. Impacto: esta vulnerabilidad puede provocar que un usuario normal ejecute c\u00f3digo con privilegios administrativos. Esto puede resultar en acceso no autorizado a datos confidenciales, instalaci\u00f3n de malware adicional y toma de control total del sistema afectado. Productos afectados: Bot\u00f3n de alerta de phishing (PAB) para Outlook versiones 1.10.0-1.10.11 Versiones de Second Chance Client 2.0.0-2.0.9 Versiones de PIQ Client 1.0.0-1.0.15 Soluci\u00f3n: KnowBe4 ha lanzado un parche que corrige el configuraci\u00f3n de permisos en el archivo de configuraci\u00f3n para evitar modificaciones no autorizadas. Se enviar\u00e1n actualizaciones autom\u00e1ticas para solucionar este problema. Los usuarios de las versiones afectadas deben verificar que est\u00e9 aplicada la \u00faltima versi\u00f3n y, en caso contrario, aplicar las \u00faltimas actualizaciones proporcionadas por KnowBe4. Soluciones alternativas: establezca manualmente los permisos correctos en el archivo de configuraci\u00f3n para restringir el acceso de escritura solo a los administradores.
