This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Avast Premium Security.

By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the service to create arbitrary namespace objects. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM.\n.
