7.2
CVSS v3.1
Official Description
The GUI (nod32.exe) in NOD32 2.5 runs with SYSTEM privileges when the scheduler runs a scheduled on-demand scan, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code during a scheduled scan via unspecified attack vectors.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2006-0951 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
