NOD32 AntiVirus versions prior to 2.51.26 could allow a local attacker to upload files to an arbitrary directory, caused by a vulnerability in the 'Restore to' feature. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to write a file to an arbitrary directory on the affected host with elevated privileges and to gain Administrator/SYSTEM privileges on the host.
