IBM Personal Communications 14.0.6 up to and including 15.0.1 includes a Windows service that is vulnerable to remote code execution (RCE) and local privilege escalation (LPE). The vulnerability allows any unprivileged user with network access to a target computer to run commands with full privileges in the context of NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. This allows for a low privileged malicious user to move laterally to affected systems and to escalate their privileges. IBM X-Force ID: 281619.
