CVE-2014-4936

The upgrade functionality in Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (MBAM) consumer before 2.0.3 and Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit (MBAE) consumer 1.04.1.1012 and earlier allow man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code by spoofing the update server and uploading an executable.

Weakness

The product does not sufficiently verify the origin or authenticity of data, in a way that causes it to accept invalid data.
