CVSS v3.1 |
| An issue discovered in MSP360 Backup Agent v7.8.5.15 and v7.9.4.84 allows attackers to obtain network share credentials used in a backup due to enginesettings.list being encrypted with a hard coded key. |
| The Spectra Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.5. This is due to the plugin allowing lower-privileged users to create registration forms and set the default role to administrator This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to create administrator-level accounts. |
| Insecure Permissions vulnerability in Micro-Star International Co., Ltd MSI Center v.2.0.36.0 allows a local attacker to escalate privileges via the Export System Info function in MSI.CentralServer.exe |
| A local privilege escalation (LPE) vulnerability has been identified in Phish Alert Button for Outlook (PAB), specifically within its configuration management functionalities. This vulnerability allows a regular user to modify the application's configuration file to redirect update checks to an arbitrary server, which can then be exploited in conjunction with CVE-2024-29209 to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
The issue stems from improper permission settings on the application's configuration file, which is stored in a common directory accessible to all users. This file includes critical parameters, such as the update server URL. By default, the application does not enforce adequate access controls on this file, allowing non-privileged users to modify it without administrative consent.
An attacker with regular user access can alter the update server URL specified in the configuration file to point to a malicious server. When the application performs its next update check, it will contact the attacker-controlled server. If the system is also vulnerable to CVE-2024-29209, the attacker can deliver a malicious update package that, when executed, grants them elevated privileges.
Impact:
This vulnerability can lead to a regular user executing code with administrative privileges. This can result in unauthorized access to sensitive data, installation of additional malware, and a full takeover of the affected system.
Affected Products:
Phish Alert Button (PAB) for Outlook versions 1.10.0-1.10.11
Second Chance Client versions 2.0.0-2.0.9
PIQ Client versions 1.0.0-1.0.15
Remediation:
KnowBe4 has released a patch that corrects the permission settings on the configuration file to prevent unauthorized modifications. Automated updates will be pushed to address this issue. Users of affected versions should verify the latest version is applied and, if not, apply the latest updates provided by KnowBe4.
Workarounds:
Manually set the correct permissions on the configuration file to restrict write access to administrators only.

| A vulnerability has been identified within Rancher where a cluster or node driver can be used to escape the chroot
jail and gain root access to the Rancher container itself. In
production environments, further privilege escalation is possible based
on living off the land within the Rancher container itself. For the test
and development environments, based on a –privileged Docker container,
it is possible to escape the Docker container and gain execution access
on the host system.
This issue affects rancher: from 2.7.0 before 2.7.16, from 2.8.0 before 2.8.9, from 2.9.0 before 2.9.3. |
| An issue was discovered in Alcatel-Lucent ALE NOE deskphones through 86x8_NOE-R300.1.40.12.4180 and SIP deskphones through 86x8_SIP-R200.1.01.10.728. Because of improper privilege management, an authenticated attacker is able to create symlinks to sensitive and protected data in locations that are used for debugging files. Given that the process of gathering debug logs is carried out with root privileges, any file referenced in the symlink is consequently written to the debug archive, thereby granting accessibility to the attacker. |
| Potential vulnerabilities have been identified in the HP Display Control software component within the HP Application Enabling Software Driver which might allow escalation of privilege. |
| Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection'), Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in openEuler migration-tools on Linux allows Command Injection, Restful Privilege Elevation. This vulnerability is associated with program files https://gitee.Com/openeuler/migration-tools/blob/master/index.Py.
This issue affects migration-tools: from 1.0.0 through 1.0.1.

| An issue in Panoramic Corporation Digital Imaging Software v.9.1.2.7600 allows a local attacker to escalate privileges via the ccsservice.exe component. |
| Insecure permissions issue in EaseUS MobiMover 6.0.5 Build 21620 allows attackers to gain escalated privileges via use of crafted executable launched from the application installation directory. |
| VMware Avi Load Balancer contains a privilege escalation vulnerability. A malicious actor with admin privileges on VMware Avi Load Balancer can create, modify, execute and delete files as a root user on the host system. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in WebWizards SalesKing allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects SalesKing: from n/a through 1.6.15. |
| The Post Grid and Gutenberg Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in versions 2.2.85 to 2.3.3. This is due to the plugin not properly restricting what user meta can be updated during profile registration. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register on the site as an administrator. |
| In versions 1.0.67 and lower of the Splunk App for SOAR, the Splunk documentation for that app recommended adding the `admin_all_objects` capability to the `splunk_app_soar` role. This addition could lead to improper access control for a low-privileged user that does not hold the "admin" Splunk roles. |
| A vulnerability in the NetExtender Windows client log export function allows unauthorized access to sensitive Windows system files, potentially leading to privilege escalation. |
| The Platform component of Mitel OpenScape 4000 and OpenScape 4000 Manager through V10 R1.54.1 and V11 through R0.22.1 could allow an authenticated attacker to conduct a privilege escalation attack due to the execution of a resource with unnecessary privileges. A successful exploit could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands with elevated privileges. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in ZTE ElasticNet UME R32 on Linux allows Accessing Functionality Not Properly Constrained by ACLs.This issue affects ElasticNet UME R32: ElasticNet_UME_R32_V16.23.20.04. |
| Exposure of resource to wrong sphere in some Intel(R) DTT software installers may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Ceph is a distributed object, block, and file storage platform. In versions 17.2.7, 18.2.1 through 18.2.4, and 19.0.0 through 19.2.2, an unprivileged user can escalate to root privileges in a ceph-fuse mounted CephFS by chmod 777 a directory owned by root to gain access. The result of this is that a user could read, write and execute to any directory owned by root as long as they chmod 777 it. This impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability. It is patched in versions 17.2.8, 18.2.5, and 19.2.3. |
| A potential security vulnerability has been identified in HPE OneView for VMware vCenter (OV4VC). This vulnerability could be exploited allowing an attacker with read only privilege to cause Vertical Privilege Escalation (operator can perform admin actions). |
