Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw has been found in IObit Malware Fighter up to 13.2.0. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the component DLL Handler. This manipulation causes permission issues. The attack requires local access. The exploit has been published and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
AnalysisAI
Permission misconfiguration in IObit Malware Fighter's DLL Handler component (versions up to 13.2.0) allows a local low-privileged attacker to exploit insecure resource permissions, resulting in low-severity confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts. The vulnerability stems from CWE-275 (Improper Permission Assignment for a Resource), and a public proof-of-concept exploit is available via GitHub and a researcher blog post. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires an attacker to have local interactive or remote shell access to the target Windows system with at minimum a low-privileged (standard user) account - confirmed by CVSS 4.0 AV:L/PR:L. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The overall real-world risk is moderate-to-low despite the presence of a public exploit. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A local attacker with a standard Windows user account on a machine running IObit Malware Fighter targets insecurely permissioned DLL files in the DLL Handler component, either reading sensitive data from those files or planting a malicious DLL in the handler's search path. Because the PoC is publicly available at https://nathan2.com/posts/iobit/ and https://github.com/nasawyer7/IObitDriverav, a script-kiddie-level actor could replicate the attack without advanced skills. … |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis - IObit did not respond to the researcher's coordinated disclosure, and no patched version is confirmed. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
