Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-25 06:30 – Updated: 2026-09-25 06:30

Details

IRONMACE Ironshield 1.0.0.167 has a tvk.sys kernel-mode driver that authenticates client executables by checking for expected publisher and root-certificate strings in WIN_CERTIFICATE data ("IRONMACE Co., Ltd." and "DigiCert Trusted Root G4") instead of parsing and validating the PKCS signature data. As a result, a local unprivileged attacker may bypass this via crafted certificate data and obtain access to privileged IOCTL functionality.

Severity

5.1 (Medium)


                  
                    CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N
