CVE-2026-45313

Sandboxie-Plus is an open source sandbox-based isolation software for Windows. Prior to 1.17.6, GuiServer::WndHookRegisterSlave in Sandboxie/core/svc/GuiServer.cpp stores attacker-supplied hthread and hproc fields from a GUI_WND_HOOK_REGISTER request without validating that the thread belongs to the sandboxed process or that the function pointer is in the caller address space, and GuiServer::WndHookNotifySlave then calls OpenThread(THREAD_SET_CONTEXT, FALSE, whk->hthread) and QueueUserAPC((PAPCFUNC)whk->hproc, hThread, (ULONG_PTR)req->threadid) as SYSTEM, allowing a sandboxed process to execute arbitrary code in an unsandboxed host process. This issue is fixed in version 1.17.6.
