Execution with Unnecessary Privileges

Ignition by Inductive Automation, when installed with default OS service account settings, may expose the host system to an elevated code execution risk via the gateway backup restore functionality. An authenticated user with Gateway Administrator privileges can import a malicious gateway backup (.gwbk) file containing crafted project resources, scripts, or modules, resulting in code execution on the host system. This affects both Windows and Linux installations. On Windows, default installations often run the Ignition service as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM, resulting in code execution with full local system privileges. On Linux, default installations commonly run the Ignition service as root or with elevated privileges. Specific privilege level depends on installation configuration.Show less

A vulnerability exists in multiple Radiometer products that allow an attacker with physical access to the analyzer possibility to extract credential information. The vulnerability is due to a weakness in the design and insufficient credential protection in operating system. Other related CVE's are CVE-2025-14095 & CVE-2025-14097. Affected customers have been informed about this vulnerability. This CVE is being published to provide transparency. Required Configuration for Exposure: Attacker requires physical access to the analyzer. Temporary work Around: Only authorized people can physically access the analyzer. Permanent solution: Local Radiometer representatives will contact all affected customers to discuss a permanent solution. Exploit Status: Researchers have provided a working proof-of-concept (PoC). Radiometer is not aware of any public exploit code at the time of this publication.Show less

Execution with Unnecessary Privileges vulnerability in Nebim Neyir Computer Industry and Services Inc. Nebim V3 ERP allows Expanding Control over the Operating System from the Database. This issue affects Nebim V3 ERP: from 2.0.59 before 3.0.1.Show less

Neuron is a PHP framework for creating and orchestrating AI Agents. In versions 2.8.11 and below, the MySQLWriteTool executes arbitrary SQL provided by the caller using PDO::prepare() + execute() without semantic restrictions. This is consistent with the name (“write tool”), but in an LLM/agent context it becomes a high-risk capability: prompt injection or indirect prompt manipulation can cause execution of destructive queries such as DROP TABLE, TRUNCATE, DELETE, ALTER, or privilege-related statements (subject to DB permissions). Deployments that expose an agent with MySQLWriteTool enabled to untrusted input and/or run the tool with a DB user that has broad privileges are impacted. This issue is fixed in version 2.8.12.Show less

In sendCommand of MediaSessionRecord.java, there is a possible way to launch the foreground service while the app is in the background due to FGS while-in-use abuse. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Show less

The VAPIX Edge storage API that allowed a privilege escalation, enabling a VAPIX administrator-privileged user to gain Linux Root privileges. This flaw can only be exploited after authenticating with an administrator-privileged service account.Show less

Dell Display and Peripheral Manager, versions prior to 2.1.2.12, contains an Execution with Unnecessary Privileges vulnerability in the Installer. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Elevation of Privileges.Show less

IBM Db2 12.1.0 through 12.1.3 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (includes Db2 Connect Server) under specific configurations could allow a local user to execute malicious code that escalate their privileges to root due to execution of unnecessary privileges operated at a higher than minimum level.Show less

A maliciously crafted file, when executed on the victim's machine, can lead to privilege escalation to NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM due to an insufficient validation of loaded binaries. An attacker with local and low-privilege access could exploit this to execute code as SYSTEM.Show less

Dell Command Monitor (DCM), versions prior to 10.12.3.28, contains an Execution with Unnecessary Privileges vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Elevation of Privileges.Show less

Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R2.0.3 contain an execution with unnecessary privileges vulnerability as it runs its embedded Logstash process as the root user. If an attacker is able to compromise the Logstash process - for example by exploiting an insecure plugin, pipeline configuration injection, or a vulnerability in input parsing - the attacker could execute code with root privileges, resulting in full system compromise. The Logstash service has been altered to run as the lower-privileged 'nagios' user to reduce this risk associated with a network-facing service that can accept untrusted input or load third-party components.Show less

Nagios XI versions prior to 5.8.7 used a temporary directory for Highcharts exports with overly permissive ownership/permissions under the Apache user. Local or co-hosted processes could read/overwrite export artifacts or manipulate paths, risking disclosure or tampering and potential code execution depending on deployment.Show less

Nagios XI versions prior to 5.7.3 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in the getprofile.sh helper script. The script performed profile retrieval and initialization routines using insecure file/command handling and insufficient validation of attacker-controlled inputs, and in some deployments executed with elevated privileges. A local attacker with low-level access could exploit these weaknesses to cause the script to execute arbitrary commands or modify privileged files, resulting in privilege escalation.Show less

Nagios XI versions prior to 5.5.7 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in the MRTG graphing component. MRTG-related processes/scripts executed with excessive privileges, allowing a local attacker with limited system access to abuse file/command execution paths or writable resources to gain elevated privileges.Show less

IBM Sterling Connect Direct for Unix 6.2.0.7 through 6.2.0.9 iFix004, 6.4.0.0 through 6.4.0.2 iFix001, and 6.3.0.2 through 6.3.0.5 iFix002 incorrectly assigns permissions for maintenance tasks to Control Center Director (CCD) users that could allow a privileged user to escalate their privileges further due to unnecessary privilege assignment for post update scripts.Show less
