      "value": "A privilege escalation issue exists within the Amazon CloudWatch Agent for Windows, software for collecting metrics and logs from Amazon EC2 instances and on-premises servers, in versions up to and including v1.247354. When users trigger a repair of the Agent, a pop-up window opens with SYSTEM permissions. Users with administrative access to affected hosts may use this to create a new command prompt as NT AUTHORITY\\SYSTEM. To trigger this issue, the third party must be able to access the affected host and elevate their privileges such that they're able to trigger the agent repair process. They must also be able to install the tools required to trigger the issue. This issue does not affect the CloudWatch Agent for macOS or Linux. Agent users should upgrade to version 1.247355 of the CloudWatch Agent to address this issue. There is no recommended work around. Affected users must update the installed version of the CloudWatch Agent to address this issue."

      "value": "Existe un problema de escalada de privilegios dentro de Amazon CloudWatch Agent para Windows, software para recopilar m\u00e9tricas y registros de instancias Amazon EC2 y servidores locales, en versiones hasta la v1.247354 incluida. Cuando los usuarios inician una reparaci\u00f3n del Agente, se abre una ventana emergente con permisos de SYSTEM. Los usuarios con acceso administrativo a los hosts afectados pueden usar esto para crear un nuevo s\u00edmbolo del sistema como NT AUTHORITY\\SYSTEM. Para desencadenar este problema, el tercero debe poder acceder al host afectado y elevar sus privilegios de modo que pueda desencadenar el proceso de reparaci\u00f3n del agente. Tambi\u00e9n deben poder instalar las herramientas necesarias para desencadenar el problema. Este problema no afecta al agente de CloudWatch para macOS o Linux. Los usuarios del agente deben actualizar a la versi\u00f3n 1.247355 del agente de CloudWatch para solucionar este problema. No se recomienda ninguna soluci\u00f3n alternativa. Los usuarios afectados deben actualizar la versi\u00f3n instalada del Agente de CloudWatch para solucionar este problema."
