The version of Intel VTune Profiler installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 2024.0. It is, therefore, affected by an escalation of privilege vulnerability. Due to an uncontrolled search path element, an authenticated, local attacker can elevate their privileges.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
