Security Bypass Vulnerability in McAfee Application and Change Control

CVE-2021-31833

What is CVE-2021-31833?

A security bypass vulnerability exists in McAfee Application and Change Control (MACC) which may allow a locally logged-in attacker to circumvent built-in application solidification protections. This could enable the attacker to execute applications that MACC normally prevents. The attack necessitates the renaming of a specified binary to match the name of a configured updater and entails a specific sequence of manipulations to successfully execute the renamed binary, thereby undermining the integrity of the application control mechanisms.
