With CVE-2017-7643 I disclosed a command injection vulnerablity in the 
KLoader
binary that ships with Proxifier <= 2.18.

Unfortunately 2.19 is also vulnerable to a slightly different attack 
that
yields the same result.

When Proxifier is first run, if the KLoader binary is not suid root it 
gets
executed as root by Proxifier.app (the user is prompted to enter an 
admin
password).  The KLoader binary will then make itself suid root so that 
it
doesn't need to prompt the user again.

The Proxifier developers added parameter sanitisation and kext signature
verification to the KLoader binary as a fix for CVE-2017-7643 but 
Proxifier.app
does no verification of the KLoader binary that gets executed as root.

The directory KLoader sits in is not root-owned so we can replace it 
with
our own binary that will get executed as root when Proxifier starts.

To avoid raising any suspicion, as soon we get executed as root we can 
swap
the real KLoader binary back into place and forward the execution call 
on
to it.  It does require the user to re-enter their credentials the next 
time
Proxifier is run but it's likely most users wouldn't think anything of 
this.

Users should upgrade to version 2.19.2.
