Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions AntiHook version 3.0.0.23

Description The issue allows local users to bypass the product's controls on a process by spoofing the ImagePathName, CommandLine, and WindowTitle fields in the Process Environment Block (PEB). This is possible because AntiHook relies on the PEB to identify a process.

Recommendations For AntiHook version 3.0.0.23, consider implementing additional validation mechanisms to verify the authenticity of the ImagePathName, CommandLine, and WindowTitle fields in the PEB to prevent spoofing attacks. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to sensitive processes until a more robust solution is available.
