A vulnerability in the automatic update process of Cisco Umbrella Roaming Client for Windows could allow an authenticated, local attacker to install arbitrary, unapproved applications on a targeted device. The vulnerability is due to insufficient verification of the Windows Installer. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by placing a file in a specific location in the Windows file system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to bypass configured policy and install unapproved applications.
The product does not sufficiently verify the origin or authenticity of data, in a way that causes it to accept invalid data.
