|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2026-42171 | NSIS (Nullsoft Scriptable Install System) 3.06.1 before 3.12 sometimes uses the Low IL temp directory when executing as SYSTEM, allowing local attackers to gain privileges (if they can cause my_GetTempFileName to return 0, as shown in the references). | [email protected] | 7.8 | 0.21% | 2026-04-24 | 2026-06-17 |
| CVE-2025-43715 | Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS) before 3.11 on Windows allows local users to escalate privileges to SYSTEM during an installation, because the temporary plugins directory is created under %WINDIR%\temp and unprivileged users can place a crafted executable file by winning a race condition.
