An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by persuading a user to put a malicious file into a specific folder and then persuading the user to execute the file within a limited time window. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the endpoint software to fail to quarantine the malicious file or kill its process.\r\n\r\nNote: This vulnerability only applies to deployments that have the Windows Folder Redirection feature enabled.\r\n\r\nCisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability.
