Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions in the \Device\SandboxieDriverApi process. An attacker can cause a system crash by sending a malformed IOCTL from an unprivileged process running inside a Standard Sandbox. This is only exploitable if the Standard Sandbox configuration is used; the Security Hardened Sandbox configuration is not affected.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by using the Security Hardened Sandbox configuration.
