Multiple DLL Search Order Hijack vulnerabilities were addressed in the SanDisk Security Installer for Windows that could allow attackers with local access to execute arbitrary code by executing the installer in the same folder as the malicious DLL. This can lead to the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the vulnerable application or obtain a certain level of persistence on the compromised host.
