High 7.3
In plain English
A high-severity incorrect default permissions in _connect.BRAIN from Bizerba SE & Co. KG. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.1% (higher than 4% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
In _connect.BRAIN versions prior to 5.06, the application LogPathConfig.exe is executed during setup. During this process, existing permissions on %ProgramData% are deleted and replaced, granting the Windows group Everyone full control instead of restricting access to %ProgramData%\Bizerba\_connect.BRAIN or %ProgramData%\Bizerba\BCT. Starting with _connect.BRAIN 5.06, the setup no longer executes this tool.
