📄 Description (English)

Sandboxie-Plus is an open source sandbox-based isolation software for Windows. In versions 1.17.2 and earlier, an INI injection vulnerability allows any standard local user to bypass configuration restrictions (EditAdminOnly and ConfigPassword) and inject arbitrary directives into the global Sandboxie.ini configuration file. The background service skips authorization checks for IPC messages targeting sections beginning with UserSettings_, but does not sanitize CRLF characters in either the value parameter (via MSGID_SBIE_INI_ADD_SETTING) or the setting name parameter (via MSGID_SBIE_INI_SET_SETTING). An attacker can inject a new sandbox section header with unrestricted permissions, enabling sandbox escape and SYSTEM privilege escalation. This issue has been fixed in version 1.17.3.

🤖 AI Executive Summary

Sandboxie-Plus versions 1.17.2 and earlier contain an INI injection vulnerability allowing local users to bypass configuration restrictions and inject arbitrary directives into the global configuration file. This enables sandbox escape and privilege escalation to SYSTEM level through crafted IPC messages.

📄 Description (Arabic)

تسمح ثغرة حقن INI في Sandboxie-Plus للمستخدمين المحليين بتجاوز قيود التكوين مثل EditAdminOnly و ConfigPassword من خلال رسائل IPC المصنوعة بعناية. يمكن للمهاجمين حقن رؤوس قسم حماية جديدة بدون قيود، مما يؤدي إلى الهروب من الحماية والارتقاء إلى امتيازات SYSTEM. تم إصلاح هذه المشكلة في الإصدار 1.17.3.

🤖 ملخص تنفيذي (AI)
