What is CVE-2022-50920?

The Sandboxie-Plus 5.50.2 version has a vulnerability due to an unquoted service path in the SbieSvc Windows service. This security flaw allows local attackers to possibly exploit the unquoted binary path to execute arbitrary code by injecting malicious executables that run with LocalSystem privileges at service startup.
