Improper access control in the IRP_MJ_WRITE command interface in Wellbia XIGNCODE3 xhunter2.sys, version 2026.6.1.192, allows a local, unprivileged attacker to achieve local privilege escalation to NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM, extract credentials from PPL-protected lsass.exe, and terminate PPL-protected security processes.
Weakness
The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
