[QUOTE="MacDefender, post: 882173, member: 83059"] This still is fundamentally dangerous in that it allows an unprivileged user to gain SYSTEM-level privileges at least to create and modify files. Saying it cannot be exploited remotely (like via a zero click attack) isn't too much reassurance. This is still something you can have malware do on-device as part of their exploit, and not even using a non-Admin account can protect you. Yes you can have layered security that makes it less likely for yourself to fall victim to such an attack (not to mention don't run untrusted binaries on your machine), but that doesn't downplay the danger that exists, where it seems like at least once a year someone finds an exploit like this in every AV.
