An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Microsoft Windows Sysinternals Sysmon prior to 14.13. A locally authenticated attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could manipulate information on the Sysinternals services to achieve elevation from local user to SYSTEM admin.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
