What to do

AI-suggested

Until an official patch is released, organizations and users should implement strict local access controls to prevent untrusted users from executing or modifying Razer Synapse components. This includes enforcing least privilege principles, disabling or uninstalling Razer Synapse on systems where it is not essential, and monitoring for unusual process or command execution related to the Synapse software. Application whitelisting can help prevent unauthorized code execution. Network segmentation and endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions should be tuned to detect suspicious activity involving Razer Synapse processes. Users should avoid running Synapse with elevated privileges and consider restricting the export functionality if possible. Regularly checking for updates from Razer and applying patches promptly once available is critical. Additionally, organizations should educate users about the risks of local privilege abuse and maintain robust logging to facilitate incident response.

Description

An issue in Razer Synapse 3 v.3.9.131.20813 and Synapse 3 App v.20240213 allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary code via the export parameter of the Chroma Effects function in the Profiles component.
