Description Petr Matousek 2013-06-13 19:31:58 UTC
An unquoted search path flaw was found in the way the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Apt service was installed on Windows. Depending on the permissions of the directories in the unquoted search path, a local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to have a binary of their choosing executed with SYSTEM privileges.
