Summary

Progress Telerik Fiddler Classic for Windows from 1.0.0 before 6.0.20262.10021 checks only the publisher name in the Authenticode signature of external helper tools before running them, not that each file is the shipped executable (CWE-347). A local user with low privileges can swap a helper for another validly signed binary from an allowed publisher, which then runs with Administrator privileges for tools that request elevation after a user approves the prompt.

Description from the CNA

In Progress® Telerik® Fiddler® Classic for Windows, versions prior to v6.0.20262.10021, the integrity check applied to the external helper tools launched by the application is insufficient. Before executing a helper tool, the application only verifies that the file carries a valid Authenticode signature whose certificate subject name matches a broad allow list of publisher name fragments, rather than verifying that the file is the specific executable shipped with that version of the product. A local threat actor with low privileges who replaces one of these helper executables with any other validly signed binary from an allow-listed publisher can cause the substituted binary to be executed by the application, including with Administrator privileges for the tools that request elevation, resulting in privilege escalation and execution of unintended code. Successful exploitation requires the user to launch the affected external tool and to approve the elevation prompt without noticing that it refers to a different executable.
