Untrusted software used in a privileged environment

Untrusted software used in a privileged environment

Problems might occur if DBSAs or OSAs run untrusted software. Untrusted software can use the privileges of the DBSA or the OSA to perform actions that bypass or disable the security features of the product or that grant inappropriate access privileges.

The primary countermeasure to this vulnerability is to make sure that DBSAs and OSAs do not run software of unknown or untrusted origin. Operating-system access controls must be used to protect all software that DBSAs and OSAs run against unauthorized modification.
