Denial of service vulnerability present shortly after product installation or upgrade, potentially allowed an attacker to render ESET’s security product inoperable, provided non-default preconditions were met.

Improper validation of the server’s certificate chain in secure traffic scanning feature considered intermediate certificate signed using the MD5 or SHA1 algorithm as trusted.

During internal security analysis, a local privilege escalation vulnerability has been identified. On a machine with the affected ESET product installed, it was possible for a user with lower privileges due to improper privilege management to trigger actions with root privileges.

ESET remedied this possible attack vector and has prepared new builds of its products that are no longer susceptible to this vulnerability.

Local privilege escalation in Windows products of ESET allows user who is logged into the system to exploit repair feature of the installer to run malicious code with higher privileges.

ESET products for Windows allows untrusted process to impersonate the client of a pipe, which can be leveraged by attacker to escalate privileges in the context of NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM.

ESET was made aware of a vulnerability in its consumer and business products for macOS that enables a user logged on to the system to stop the ESET daemon, effectively disabling the protection of the ESET security product until a system reboot.

ESET Cyber Security 6.7.900.0 for macOS allows a local attacker to execute unauthorized commands as root by abusing an undocumented feature in scheduled tasks.
