Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncontrolled Search Path Element in the installation process on Windows systems when custom directories are specified. An attacker can execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges by placing a malicious DLL in a directory with unsafe permissions, which may then be loaded by the application.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by installing the application into directories with appropriately restricted access permissions and verifying or adjusting permissions on custom installation directories to prevent unprivileged users from modifying their contents.
