| A Cross Site Scripting (XSS) issue exists in AVG AntiVirus (Internet Security Edition) 19.3.3084 build 19.3.4241.440 in the Network Notification Popup, allowing an attacker to execute JavaScript code via an SSID Name. |
| An issue was discovered in Avast antivirus before 19.8 and AVG antivirus before 19.8. A DLL Preloading vulnerability allows an attacker to implant %WINDIR%\system32\wbemcomn.dll, which is loaded into a protected-light process (PPL) and might bypass some of the self-defense mechanisms. This affects all components that use WMI, e.g., AVGSvc.exe 19.6.4546.0 and TuneupSmartScan.dll 19.1.884.0. |
