Intel Battery Life Diagnostic Tool versions prior to 1.0.7
Description:
The issue is related to improper permissions in the installer for the Intel Battery Life Diagnostic Tool, which may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. This is due to errors in using standard permissions.
