Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Trend Micro HouseCall for Home Networks versions 5.3.1179 and below
Description
The issue is related to an incorrect permission vulnerability in the product installer folders, which could allow an attacker to escalate privileges by placing arbitrary code on a specified folder and having that code executed by an Administrator who is running a scan. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system to exploit this vulnerability.
Recommendations

At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
