CVE-2016-10157: Akamai Netsession

Critical severity, CVSS 9.8. EPSS: 2.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Akamai NetSession 1.9.3.1 is vulnerable to DLL Hijacking: it tries to load CSUNSAPI.dll without supplying the complete path. The issue is aggravated because the mentioned DLL is missing from the installation, thus making it possible to hijack the DLL and subsequently inject code within the Akamai NetSession process space.

Affected products

• Akamai Netsession: version 1.9.3.1 only
