The Self-Protection feature does not prohibit a write operation from an external process. Thus, code injection can be used to turn off this feature. After that, one can construct an event that will modify a file at a specific location, and pass this event to the driver, thereby defeating the anti-virus functionality." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "refsource": "CONFIRM", "name": "https://support.avira.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000109798-Avira-Antivirus-for-Windows", "url": "https://support.avira.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000109798-Avira-Antivirus-for-Windows" } ] } }
