Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Digital Guardian Agent versions prior to 7.9.4

Description The issue is related to the unprotected storage of sensitive information in the Digital Guardian Agent. This allows a local attacker to retrieve the uninstall key and remove the software by extracting the uninstaller key from the memory of the uninstaller file.

Recommendations For versions prior to 7.9.4, update to version 7.9.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the uninstaller file to minimize the risk of exploitation.
