Execution with unnecessary privileges issue exists in Defense Platform Home Edition Ver.3.9.51.x and earlier. If an attacker performs a specific operation, SYSTEM privilege of the Windows system where the product is running may be obtained.
Weakness
The product performs an operation at a privilege level that is higher than the minimum level required, which creates new weaknesses or amplifies the consequences of other weaknesses.
