CVE-2024-25086
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedImproper privilege management in Jungo WinDriver before 12.2.0 allows local attackers to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceThis is a local privilege escalation vulnerability in Jungo WinDriver. The 'improper privilege management' flaw allows a local attacker to elevate their privileges beyond what they should have and execute arbitrary code with those elevated privileges.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Find Jungo WinDriver installation and versionCheck the Windows registry under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall for entries containing 'Jungo' or 'WinDriver', or inspect the typical installation path (C:\Jungo\WinDriver) if it exists. Look for a version number in the uninstall entry or version file.Affected if Jungo WinDriver is found with a version lower than 12.2.0, or if the version cannot be determined and the software is present.
-
Find Mitsubishi Electric affected productsCheck the Windows registry under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall for entries containing any of these names: 'Cpu Module Logging Configuration Tool', 'Cw Configurator', 'Data Transfer', 'Ezsocket', 'Fr Configurator Sw3', 'Fr Configurator2'. Also check the Mitsubishi program directory under Program Files.Affected if Any of the listed Mitsubishi Electric products are found installed on the system.
-
Locate WinDriver privilege escalation componentSearch for the WinDriver driver files or the wdreg.exe utility (commonly found in C:\Jungo\WinDriver\tools or C:\Jungo\WinDriver\bin) which handles driver installation with elevated privileges.Affected if The WinDriver components (driver files, wdreg.exe, or kernel driver service) are present on the system.
-
Verify driver service existsOpen Services (services.msc) and look for any service named 'WinDriver' or similar Jungo-related driver services that run with elevated system privileges.Affected if A WinDriver-related service is installed and running on the system.
The system is affected if Jungo WinDriver (any version below 12.2.0) or any of the Mitsubishi Electric products (Cpu Module Logging Configuration Tool, Cw Configurator, Data Transfer, Ezsocket, Fr Configurator variants) are present on the system.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped12.2.0
Upgrade to Jungo WinDriver version 12.2.0 or later. As this is a local privilege escalation with CVSS 7.8, prioritize patching for systems where untrusted local users have access.
Windriver 12.2.0 or later (Jungo WinDriver 12.2.0)
- 1. Identify all systems with Jungo WinDriver installed by checking the driver version (typically in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\windrvr*.sys or via the WinDriver version utility)
- 2. Download WinDriver version 12.2.0 or later from the official Jungo website (jungo.com) or your vendor's patched distribution
- 3. Back up all current WinDriver configurations, custom driver projects, and license files
- 4. Stop any running applications that use WinDriver (including the affected products: Cpu Module Logging Configuration Tool, Cw Configurator, Data Transfer, Data Transfer Classic, Ezsocket, Fr Configurator Sw3, Fr Configurator2)
- 5. Uninstall the existing WinDriver version via the vendor's recommended removal procedure
- 6. Install the new WinDriver 12.2.0 or later version
- 7. Restore configurations and re-register any license files if required
- 8. Restart the previously stopped applications and verify they function correctly
