What is CVE-2015-9268?

The Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS) prior to version 2.49 is vulnerable due to unsafe implicit linking against Version.dll, leading to potential exploitation during runtime. This flaw occurs because there is no protective wrapper function that appropriately resolves the dependency at the correct time, which could allow a malicious actor to manipulate software installation processes.
