Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WatchGuard Terminal Services Agent versions 12.0 through 12.10

Description The issue is related to the improper configuration of directory permissions when the WatchGuard Terminal Services Agent is installed in a non-default directory on Windows. This could allow an authenticated local attacker to escalate to SYSTEM privileges on a vulnerable system.

Recommendations For versions 12.0 through 12.10, update to a version that properly configures directory permissions to prevent privilege escalation. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the affected directory to minimize the risk of exploitation.
