Crucial Storage Executive < 11.08.082025.00 Installer DLL Preloading LPE

Published Jan 26, 2026 · Updated May 14, 2026 · Assigned by VulnCheck

Description

Crucial Storage Executive installer versions prior to 11.08.082025.00 contain a DLL preloading vulnerability. During installation, the installer runs with elevated privileges and loads Windows DLLs using an uncontrolled search path, which can cause a malicious DLL placed alongside the installer to be loaded instead of the intended system library. A local attacker who can convince a victim to run the installer from a directory containing the attacker-supplied DLL can achieve arbitrary code execution with administrator privileges.
