Hello! I would like to request a small modification in Summary. "The manipulation leads to integrity check." is just 1 of possible impacts. The whole impact should be:
- Arbitrary file write: Manipulating manifest file leads to arbitrary file write in to Comodo IS's installation folder. Any non-PE file is gonna be written. This is the main root-cause to combine with path traversal (as I reported and assigned CVE-2025-7098) to gain code execution as logon user.
- Combine with "Exec" tag in XML to execute downloaded file as NT SYSTEM -> Technically this is a Remote Code Execution.

So I would like to ask Vuldb's Staff double check and correct the summary! Thanks in advance!

Our CVSS scoring is standardized and we do not negotiate it. Please edit the entry and add your own researcher score, which will impact the overall Meta Score as well.
