CVE-2026-30478: n/a
A Dynamic-link Library Injection vulnerability in GatewayGeo MapServer for Windows version 5 allows attackers to escalate privileges via a crafted executable.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves DLL Injection in GatewayGeo MapServer for Windows version 5, enabling attackers with limited privileges to escalate their privileges by executing a crafted executable. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H) indicates that the attack requires local access with low complexity and no user interaction, but results in a complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability is tracked as CWE-427 (Uncontrolled Search Path Element). No patch or official remediation level has been disclosed by the vendor.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker with local access and limited privileges to escalate their privileges, potentially gaining full control over the affected system. This can lead to complete compromise of the system's confidentiality, integrity, and availability. There are no reports of active exploitation in the wild currently.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict local access to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity related to DLL injection. Avoid running untrusted executables on affected systems.
