An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Windows Update Client when it does not properly handle privileges, aka Microsoft Windows Update Client Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability.
The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
