Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.
1) Processor optimization removal or modification of security-critical code
EUVDB-ID: #VU88579
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 7.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-3852
CWE-ID:
CWE-1037 - Processor optimization removal or modification of security-critical code
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to GetBoundName can return the wrong version of an object when JIT optimizations were applied. A remote attacker can abuse such behavior to execute arbitrary code on the system.
Install updates from vendor's website.
