Title
Insecure permission assignment due to execution of LogPathConfig.exe during setup
Summary
In BRAIN2 versions prior to 3.09, the
application LogPathConfig.exe is executed during setup. As a result, the
Windows group Everyone is granted full control over %ProgramData% instead of
being restricted to %ProgramData%\Bizerba\BRAIN2\.
Starting with BRAIN2 3.09, the setup no
longer executes this tool.
However, the optional component Bizerba ScriptService still executes it.
Bizerba ScriptService is being
deprecated and will no longer be included starting with BRAIN2 version 3.11.
