CVE-2026-9489

NitroSense 3.x before 3.01.3052 contains 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.

Summary		(es) NitroSense 3.x anterior a 3.01.3052 contiene una vulnerabilidad de escalada de privilegios local (LPE). El programa expone una Named Pipe de Windows que utiliza un protocolo personalizado para invocar funciones internas. Sin embargo, esta Named Pipe está mal configurada, permitiendo a cualquier usuario local autenticado ejecutar código arbitrario con privilegios de NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM y eliminar archivos arbitrarios con privilegios de SYSTEM. Al aprovechar esto, un atacante puede ejecutar código arbitrario en el sistema objetivo con privilegios elevados.
