- Multiple RyuJIT Optimization Elevation of Privilege Vulnerabilities
Elevation of privilege vulnerabilities exist in Microsoft .NET Framework when the RyuJIT compiler improperly optimizes certain parameters resulting in a code generation error. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.
