Miele · Miele Benchmark Programming Tool · CVE-2022-22521
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Miele Benchmark Programming Tool versions prior to 1.2.71
**Description**
The issue allows executable files manipulated by attackers to be unknowingly executed with user privileges. An attacker with low privileges may trick a user with administrative privileges to execute these binaries as admin, potentially obtaining higher permissions. The attacker must already have access to the corresponding local system to exchange the files.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 1.2.71, update to version 1.2.71 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to executable files and limiting user privileges to minimize the risk of exploitation.
