BACKGROUND
Due to its high level of professionalism and dedication, Kaspersky Lab has become a market leader in the development of
antivirus protection. The company’s main product, Kaspersky Anti-Virus, regularly receives top awards in tests
conducted by respected international research centers and IT publications. Kaspersky Lab was the first to develop many
technological standards in the antivirus industry, including full-scale solutions for Linux, Unix and NetWare, a
new-generation heuristic analyzer designed to detect newly emerging viruses, effective protection against polymorphic
and macro viruses, continuously updated antivirus databases and a technique for detecting viruses in archived files.

DETAILS
Insecure permissions have been detected in the multiple Kaspersky Lab antivirus products. “Everyone" group has “Full
Control” rights to the BASES folder. The folder consists of antivirus bases, configuration files and executable
modules. Local attacker (unprivileged user) can replace some files (for example, executable modules) by malicious file
and execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges. This is local privilege escalation vulnerability.
For example, in Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2010 (9.0.0.463) the following attack scenario could be used:
1. An attacker (unprivileged user) replaces one of the *.kdl files by malicious dynamic link library (DLL). The
replacing file could be - %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Kaspersky Lab\AVP9\Bases\vulns.kdl.
2. Restart the system.
After restart attackers malicious DLL will be loaded with SYSTEM privileges.
Self-defense of the Kaspersky Anti-Virus will prevent all operations with own files. It can be bypassed using internal
shell dialogs in Kaspersky Anti-Virus (for example, "Open" dialog in Quarantine).
For other vulnerable Kaspersky Lab products similar attack scenario could be used.
EXPLOITATION
An attacker must have valid logon credentials to a system where vulnerable software is installed.
WORKAROUND
Kaspersky Lab has addressed this vulnerability by releasing fixed versions of the vulnerable products:
Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2010 (9.0.0.736)
