CVE-2017-2212: TKY2JGD 1.3.79 may load malicious DLL

CVE-2017-2212 · published 9 years ago

Summary

The TKY2JGD program (version 1.3.79) looks for supporting files in locations that are not trusted, so an attacker could place a harmful DLL there and have the program run it with elevated rights. This could let the attacker take control of the system or access sensitive data. Apply any available updates, limit the folders the program can read, and ensure only trusted, signed DLLs are present.
