SANDISK DASHBOARD · CVE-2026-114594 · Other
NO FIX YET
The Sandisk Dashboard installer checks a binary staged in a user-writable temporary folder, then runs it with elevated rights, but a local user can swap the file in between. An authenticated standard user can therefore get code to run as an administrator on the Windows machine.

Sandisk Dashboard through version 5.2.2.3 is affected, as the flaw is in its installer. Someone needs a standard account on the machine first, so shared computers are the main concern. The sources do not say whether a patched version exists.

5.2.2.3 or earlierNo fix yet, per the sources.
A time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition in the Sandisk Dashboard installer allows a local, authenticated standard user to replace an installer-staged binary in a user-writable temporary directory between validation and execution. The elevated installer then executes the attacker-controlled binary, resulting in local privilege escalation to a high-integrity (administrative) context. This issue affects Sandisk Dashboard through 5.2.2.3.
