Local privilege escalation in StableBit Scanner 2.6.13.4088 allows a low-privileged Windows user to exploit permission misconfigurations in Scanner.Service.exe - the Windows service component of the disk health monitoring tool - to achieve high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the local system. The exploit reference titles the technique as 'local privilege escalation via insecure deserialization,' suggesting the ScannerService's IPC or communication surface deserializes attacker-controlled data without adequate permission enforcement. No public exploit identified at time of analysis is incorrect here - publicly available exploit code exists per VulDB and the referenced PoC page, though no CISA KEV listing confirms active in-production exploitation.
