Low risk2th percentile - higher than 2% of all known CVEs
Summary
A vulnerability in PredatorSense versions 3.00.3136 to 3.00.3196 allows local privilege escalation. The program exposes a misconfigured Windows Named Pipe, enabling an authenticated local user to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges and delete arbitrary files with SYSTEM privileges.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can gain full control over the system by executing code with the highest privileges, compromising data confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Recommendation
Immediately update PredatorSense to a version later than 3.00.3196, which contains a fix for the vulnerability.

Original NVD description (English source)
PredatorSense version 3.00.3136 to 3.00.3196 contain Local Privilege Escalation (LPE) vulnerability.The program exposes a Windows Named Pipe that uses a custom protocol to invoke internal functions. However, this Named Pipe is misconfigured, allowing any authenticated local user to execute arbitrary code with NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges and to delete arbitrary files with SYSTEM privileges. By leveraging this, an attacker can execute arbitrary code on the target system with elevated privileges.
