AXIS IP Utility before 4.18.0 allows for remote code execution and local privilege escalation by the means of DLL hijacking. IPUtility.exe would attempt to load DLLs from its current working directory which could allow for remote code execution if a compromised DLL would be placed in the same folder.
The product uses a fixed or controlled search path to find resources, but one or more locations in that path can be under the control of unintended actors.
