alaatk/cve-2024-28589Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability on Axigen for Windows
A vulnerability has been discovered in Axigen Mail Server for Windows, affecting all versions up to 10.5.18, which allows for local privilege escalation.
The Axigen Mail Server was found to be vulnerable to a local privilege escalation due to insecure DLL loading from a world-writable directory. During the service initiation of "Axigen Mail Server," which operates with SYSTEM privileges, it searches for a non-existent directory. An attacker with local access can create this directory and place a malicious DLL file in it. When the service starts, it attempts to load all DLL files in this directory, allowing the attacker's code to execute with SYSTEM privileges.
Axigen 10.x up to 10.5.18
fixed starting with 10.5.19
Service Name: Axigen Mail Server
