CVE-2017-7180 Information

Description

Net Monitor for Employees Pro through 5.3.4 has an unquoted service path which allows a Security Feature Bypass of its documented \Block applications\ design goal. The local attacker must have privileges to write to program.exe in a protected directory such as the SYSTEMDRIVE directory and thus the issue is not interpreted as a direct privilege escalation. However the local attacker might have the goal of executing program.exe even though program.exe is a blocked application.
