| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in xtemos Woodmart Core allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects Woodmart Core: from n/a through 1.0.36. |
| 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.

| Improper privilege management vulnerability in Novakon P series allows attackers to gain root privileges if one service is compromized.This issue affects P series: P – V2001.A.C518o2 until P-2.0.05 Build
2026.02.06 (commit d0f97fd9). |
| 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. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in GE Vernova S1 Agile Configuration Software on Windows allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects S1 Agile Configuration Software: 3.1 and previous version. |
| A local privilege escalation vulnerability exists in Commvault for Windows versions 11.20.0, 11.28.0, 11.32.0, 11.34.0, and 11.36.0. In affected configurations, a local attacker who owns a client system with the file server agent installed can compromise any assigned Windows access nodes. This may allow unauthorized access or lateral movement within the backup infrastructure. The issue has been resolved in versions 11.32.60, 11.34.34, and 11.36.8. |
| python-jose thru 3.3.0 allows JWT tokens with 'alg=none' to be decoded and accepted without any cryptographic signature verification. A malicious actor can craft a forged token with arbitrary claims (e.g., is_admin=true) and bypass authentication checks, leading to privilege escalation or unauthorized access in applications that rely on python-jose for token validation. This issue is exploitable unless developers explicitly reject 'alg=none' tokens, which is not enforced by the library. NOTE: all parties agree that the issue is not relevant because it only occurs in a "verify_signature": False situation. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in weDevs WP User Frontend allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects WP User Frontend: from n/a through 3.6.5. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in miniOrange WordPress Social Login and Register (Discord, Google, Twitter, LinkedIn) allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects WordPress Social Login and Register (Discord, Google, Twitter, LinkedIn): from n/a through 7.6.6. |
| A local privilege escalation vulnerability has been identified in the Kaba exos 9300 System management application (d9sysdef.exe). Within this application it is possible to specify an arbitrary executable as well as the weekday and start time, when the specified executable should be run with SYSTEM privileges. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in Thrive Themes Thrive Theme Builder allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects Thrive Theme Builder: from n/a before 3.24.0. |
| The Homey Login Register plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.0. This is due to the plugin allowing users who are registering new accounts to set their own role. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to gain elevated privileges by creating an account with the administrator role. |
| An authentication bypass vulnerability was found in Stilog Visual Planning 8. It allows an unauthenticated attacker to brute-force the password reset PINs of administrative users. |
| The FTL Server component of TIBCO Software Inc.'s TIBCO FTL - Enterprise Edition contains a vulnerability that allows a low privileged attacker with network access to execute a privilege escalation on the affected ftlserver. Affected releases are TIBCO Software Inc.'s TIBCO FTL - Enterprise Edition: versions 6.10.1 and below.

| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in IOSS WP MLM Unilevel allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects WP MLM Unilevel: from n/a through 4.0. |
| FrostWire 6.14.0-build-326 for macOS contains permissive entitlements (allow-dyld-environment-variables, disable-library-validation) that allow unprivileged local attackers to inject code into the FrostWire process via the DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES environment variable. This allows escalated privileges to arbitrary TCC-approved directories. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in powerfulwp Local Delivery Drivers for WooCommerce allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects Local Delivery Drivers for WooCommerce: from n/a through 1.9.0. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in Glowlogix WP Frontend Profile allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects WP Frontend Profile: from n/a through 1.3.1. |
| 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. |
| GLPI, which stands for Gestionnaire Libre de Parc Informatique, is a Free Asset and IT Management Software package, that provides ITIL Service Desk features, licenses tracking and software auditing. In versions 10.0.0 to before 10.0.19, a connected user without administration rights can change the rules execution order. This issue has been patched in version 10.0.19. |
