CVE-2019-25608

Iperius Backup 6.1.0 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability that allows low-privilege users to execute arbitrary programs with elevated privileges by creating backup jobs. Attackers can configure backup jobs to execute malicious batch files or programs before or after backup operations, which run with the privileges of the Iperius Backup Service account (Local System or Administrator), enabling privilege escalation and arbitrary code execution.

Summary		(es) Iperius Backup 6.1.0 contiene una vulnerabilidad de escalada de privilegios que permite a usuarios con pocos privilegios ejecutar programas arbitrarios con privilegios elevados al crear tareas de copia de seguridad. Los atacantes pueden configurar tareas de copia de seguridad para ejecutar archivos por lotes o programas maliciosos antes o después de las operaciones de copia de seguridad, los cuales se ejecutan con los privilegios de la cuenta de servicio de Iperius Backup (Sistema local o Administrador), lo que permite la escalada de privilegios y la ejecución de código arbitrario.
