Summary

A privilege escalation vulnerability was discovered in TeamViewer DEX (formerly 1E DEX) prior to V17.1, specifically in the 1E-Nomad-SetWorkRate instruction. Improper handling of executable search paths could allow local attackers with write access to a PATH directory to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code as SYSTEM.

Risk Assessment

The risk for the organization is the potential for a local user with limited privileges to gain full control of the device, leading to system and data integrity compromise.

Recommendation

It is recommended to immediately update TeamViewer DEX to version V17.1 or later and restrict write permissions to PATH directories on devices.
