What is CVE-2009-5150?

The Absolute Computrace Agent versions V80.845 and V80.866 contain a vulnerability that allows a privileged local user to execute arbitrary code. This occurs due to the absence of a digital signature for the configuration block, enabling attackers to manipulate data within a disk's inter-partition space. Consequently, attackers can establish communication with unauthorized websites instead of the intended search.namequery.com. This vulnerability persists even if the privileged user's access is revoked or if all disk partitions are reformed.
