Researchers at modzero, a Swiss research and services group, discovered the vulnerability and notified CrowdStrike in June.

CrowdStrike asked the researchers to report it through the company’s HackerOne bug bounty program

The researchers initially tested one specific version of Falcon, but later in the process were able to get access to a newer version.

CrowdStrike said in an email statement that the issue is with the Microsoft MSI implementation.
