Execution with Unnecessary Privileges

The scanner device boots into a kiosk mode by default and opens the Scan2Net interface in a browser window. This browser is run with the permissions of the root user. There are also several other applications running as root user. This can be confirmed by running "ps aux" as the root user and observing the output.Show less

The www-data user can elevate its privileges because sudo is configured to allow the execution of the mount command as root without a password. Therefore, the privileges can be escalated to the root user. The risk has been accepted by the vendor and won't be fixed in the near future.Show less

Argo Workflows Chart is used to set up argo and its needed dependencies through one command. Prior to 0.44.0, the workflow-role has excessive privileges, the worst being create pods/exec, which will allow kubectl exec into any Pod in the same namespace, i.e. arbitrary code execution within those Pods. If a user can be made to run a malicious template, their whole namespace can be compromised. This affects versions of the argo-workflows Chart that use appVersion: 3.4 and above, which no longer need these permissions for the only available Executor, Emissary. It could also affect users below 3.4 depending on their choice of Executor in those versions. This only affects the Helm Chart and not the upstream manifests. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.44.0.Show less

A vulnerability in the Incoming Goods Suite allows a user with unprivileged access to the underlying system (e.g. local or via SSH) a privilege escalation to the administrative level due to the usage of component vendor Docker images running with root permissions. Exploiting this misconfiguration leads to the fact that an attacker can gain administrative control. over the whole system.Show less

A vulnerability in system file transfer functions of Cisco SD-WAN vManage Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to gain escalated privileges on the underlying operating system. The vulnerability is due to improper validation of path input to the system file transfer functions. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending requests that contain specially crafted path variables to the vulnerable system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to overwrite arbitrary files, allowing the attacker to modify the system in such a way that could allow the attacker to gain escalated privileges.Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.Show less

Execution with Unnecessary Privileges, : Improper Protection of Alternate Path vulnerability in TR7 Application Security Platform (ASP) allows Privilege Escalation, -Privilege Abuse. This issue affects Application Security Platform (ASP): v1.4.25.188.Show less

A local privilege escalation vulnerability in the SecuSUITE Server (System Configuration) of SecuSUITE versions 5.0.420 and earlier could allow a successful attacker that had gained control of code running under one of the system accounts listed in the configuration file to potentially issue privileged script commands.Show less

Dell SmartFabric OS10 Software, version(s) 10.5.6.x, 10.5.5.x, 10.5.4.x, 10.5.3.x, contain(s) an Execution with Unnecessary Privileges vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Command executionShow less

Attackers with local access to the medical office computer can escalate their Windows user privileges to "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" by overwriting one of two Elefant service binaries with weak permissions. The default installation directory of Elefant is "C:\Elefant1" which is writable for all users. In addition, the Elefant installer registers two Firebird database services which are running as “NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM”.  Path: C:\Elefant1\Firebird_2\bin\fbserver.exe Path: C:\Elefant1\Firebird_2\bin\fbguard.exe Both service binaries are user writable. This means that a local attacker can rename one of the service binaries, replace the service executable with a new executable, and then restart the system. Once the system has rebooted, the new service binary is executed as "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM".Show less

A vulnerability has been identified in InterMesh 7177 Hybrid 2.0 Subscriber (All versions < V8.2.12), InterMesh 7707 Fire Subscriber (All versions < V7.2.12 only if the IP interface is enabled (which is not the default configuration)). The web server of affected devices allows to write arbitrary files to the web server's DocumentRoot directory.Show less

A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco ATA 190 Series Analog Telephone Adapter firmware could allow an authenticated, remote attacker with low privileges to run commands as an Admin user. This vulnerability is due to incorrect authorization verification by the HTTP server. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a malicious request to the web-based management interface. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to run commands as the Admin user.Show less

A privilege escalation vulnerability in the Palo Alto Networks GlobalProtect app on Windows allows a locally authenticated non-administrative Windows user to escalate their privileges to NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM through the use of the repair functionality offered by the .msi file used to install GlobalProtect.Show less

The vCenter Server contains a privilege escalation vulnerability. A malicious actor with network access to vCenter Server may trigger this vulnerability to escalate privileges to root by sending a specially crafted network packet.Show less

Sensitive data disclosure and manipulation due to unnecessary privileges assignment. The following products are affected: Acronis Backup plugin for cPanel & WHM (Linux) before build 619, Acronis Backup extension for Plesk (Linux) before build 555, Acronis Backup plugin for DirectAdmin (Linux) before build 147.Show less

A flaw was found in openshift/builder. This vulnerability allows command injection via path traversal, where a malicious user can execute arbitrary commands on the OpenShift node running the builder container. When using the “Docker” strategy, executable files inside the privileged build container can be overridden using the `spec.source.secrets.secret.destinationDir` attribute of the `BuildConfig` definition. An attacker running code in a privileged container could escalate their permissions on the node running the container.Show less

A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC BATCH V9.1 (All versions), SIMATIC Information Server 2020 (All versions < V2020 SP2 Update 5), SIMATIC Information Server 2022 (All versions < V2022 SP1 Update 2), SIMATIC PCS 7 V9.1 (All versions < V9.1 SP2 UC06), SIMATIC Process Historian 2020 (All versions < V2020 SP2 Update 5), SIMATIC Process Historian 2022 (All versions < V2022 SP1 Update 2), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional V18 (All versions < V18 Update 5), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional V19 (All versions < V19 Update 3), SIMATIC WinCC V7.4 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC V7.5 (All versions < V7.5 SP2 Update 18), SIMATIC WinCC V8.0 (All versions < V8.0 Update 5). The affected products run their DB server with elevated privileges which could allow an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary OS commands with administrative privileges.Show less
