About this tag
NSIS, or Nullsoft Scriptable Install System, is a widely used installer technology on Windows. Discussions on WindowsForum.com cover several NSIS-related topics, including a local privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2025-43715) in NSIS code used within Siemens SIMOTION setup components, which can allow an unprivileged local user to gain SYSTEM privileges during installation. Users also seek methods to extract command-line parameters from NSIS installers for automation, and report errors such as 'NSIS Error: Error Launching Installer' when trying to install programs. Additionally, the tag appears in the context of a memory leak in the Network Store Interface Service (NSI) and a potential PUP detection named 'Solimba-B' associated with NSIS installers.
