[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 97327, post: 1057999"] [USER=32260]@Andy Ful[/USER] Ah the old DLL Hijack case study again. :) With the very unrealistic scenario on how an ISO file is teleported on the PC and a fabricated LNK is used to execute CMD. Easy to prevent by blocking CMD as a lolbin or protecting LNK or blocking execution in archivers (e.g. with the ecellent Hard_Cofigurator) or blocking file extensions from archivers (e.g with the smart and problem free SimpleWindowsHardening). Quick fixes you certainly must recognize ;) I am not going into the WHH discussion again, took me ages to get three YES out of you. For people not understading where we were talking about the "your DLL hole is bigger than my DLL hole" must have been hilarisch to read in the WHH thread. I think it is safe to say that Andy and I agree for 95% on the subjects we discuss, but we disagree passionately on the remaining 5%. *** So I will stick to my advice: WDAC-ISG (with H_C in WSH mode blocking lolbins) is an excellent alternative to SAC for people who are unable to use SAC (e.g. Windows10 or disabled SAC in Windows11 after evaluation). I did not tell people to use WDAC-ISG instead of SAC. I literally posted that "WDAC-ISG is the slightly dumber but more controllable and configurable sibling of SAC".
