What is CVE-2019-17066?

Prior to version 10.4.40.0, Ivanti WorkSpace Control is susceptible to privilege escalation due to a flaw in the way the application manages user registry hives. Specifically, the component pwrgrid.exe improperly checks the Current User registry hives (HKCU) when initializing applications with elevated rights. As a result, a locally authenticated user with limited privileges may exploit this oversight to hijack specific user registry entries and gain administrative privileges on the system.
