CVE-2026-34883 Details
Description
An issue was discovered in the Portrait Dell Color Management application before 3.7.0 for Dell monitors. On Windows, a symbolic link vulnerability allows a local low-privileged user to escalate privileges to Administrator. During installation, the software writes the file CCFLFamily_07Feb11.edr to C:\ProgramData\Portrait Displays\CW\data\i1D3\ while running with elevated privileges. Because the installer does not properly validate symbolic links or reparse points at the destination path, an attacker can create a malicious link that redirects the write operation to an arbitrary system location, enabling arbitrary file creation or overwrite with elevated privileges.
A symbolic link vulnerability allowing local low-privileged users to escalate privileges to Administrator has been identified in the Portrait Dell Color Management application, prior to version 3.7.0, for Dell monitors. During installation, the application writes a file to a directory while running with elevated privileges. However, the installer fails to properly validate symbolic links at the destination path, enabling an attacker to create a malicious link that redirects the write operation to an arbitrary location on the system. This flaw can be exploited to create or overwrite files with elevated privileges.
Users should upgrade to Dell Color Management version 3.7.0.0 or higher. The latest version can be downloaded from the Portrait Displays website. If the previous version is installed, do not uninstall it before installing the new version, as the installer will overwrite the files and remove the vulnerability.
