Maliciously misconfigured registry vulnerability in all Microsoft Windows products in McAfee consumer and corporate products allows an administrator to inject arbitrary code into a debugged McAfee process via manipulation of registry parameters.

Weakness

The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.
