||
A Privilege Escalation vulnerability in the Microsoft Windows client in McAfee Total Protection 16.0.R22 and earlier allows administrators to execute arbitrary code via carefully placing malicious files in specific locations protected by administrator permission. | 6.7 |
MEDIUM |
||
A File Masquerade vulnerability in McAfee Total Protection (MTP) version 16.0.R21 and earlier in Windows client allowed an attacker to read the plaintext list of AV-Scan exclusion files from the Windows registry, and to possibly replace excluded files with potential malware without being detected. | 7.8 |
