| MCSManager 10.5.3 daemon process runs as a root account by default, and its sensitive data (including tokens and terminal content) is stored in the data directory, readable by all users. Other users on the system can read the daemon's key and use it to log in, leading to privilege escalation. |
| A
CWE-269: Improper Privilege Management vulnerability exists that could cause privilege escalation when the
server is accessed by a privileged account via a console and through exploitation of a setup script. |
| Incorrect Privilege Assignment vulnerability in Jthemes xSmart xsmart allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects xSmart: from n/a through <= 1.2.9.4. |
| 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 Broken Access Control vulnerability in StrangeBee TheHive 5.2.0 before 5.2.16, 5.3.0 before 5.3.11, and 5.4.0 before 5.4.10 allows remote, authenticated, and unprivileged users to retrieve alerts, cases, logs, observables, or tasks, regardless of the user's permissions, through a specific API endpoint. |
| An issue was discovered in CyberDAVA before 1.1.20. A privilege escalation vulnerability allows a low-privileged user to escalate their privilege by abusing the following API due to the lack of access control: /api/v2/users/user/<user id>/role/ROLE/<Target role> (admin access can be achieved). |
| 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. |
| Incorrect Privilege Assignment vulnerability in Progress Planner Progress Planner progress-planner allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects Progress Planner: from n/a through <= 1.8.0. |
| A vulnerability has been found in Radarr 5.28.0.10274. The affected element is an unknown function of the file C:\ProgramData\Radarr\bin\Radarr.Console.exe of the component Service. Such manipulation leads to incorrect default permissions. The attack can only be performed from a local environment. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. |
| Advanced Installer before 22.6 has an uncontrolled search path element local privilege escalation vulnerability. When running as SYSTEM in certain configurations, Advanced Installer looks in standard-user writable locations for non-existent binaries and executes them as SYSTEM. A low-privileged attacker can place a malicious binary in a targeted folder; when the installer is executed, the attacker achieves arbitrary SYSTEM code execution. |
| An issue discovered in web-flash v3.0 allows attackers to reset passwords for arbitrary users via crafted POST request to /prod-api/user/resetPassword. |
| 266 vulnerability in Crestron Automate VX allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects Automate VX: from 5.6.8161.21536 through 6.4.0.49. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in upKeeper Solutions upKeeper Instant Privilege Access allows Privilege Abuse.This issue affects upKeeper Instant Privilege Access: before 1.4.0. |
| Improper mstatus.SUM bit retention (non-zero) in Open-Source RISC-V Processor commit f517abb violates privileged spec constraints, enabling potential physical memory access attacks. |
| Privilege Escalation in WRSA.EXE in Webroot Antivirus 8.0.1X- 9.0.35.12 on
Windows64 bit and 32 bit allows malicious software to abuse WRSA.EXE to delete arbitrary and protected files.

| 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. |
| Kiteworks Totemomail 7.x and 8.x before 8.3.0 allows /responsiveUI/EnvelopeOpenServlet messageId directory traversal for unauthenticated file read and delete operations (with displayLoginChunkedImages) and write operations (with storeLoginChunkedImages). |
| An issue was discovered in WithSecure Elements Agent through 23.x for macOS, WithSecure Elements Client Security through 23.x for macOS, and WithSecure MDR through 23.x for macOS. Local Privilege Escalation can occur during installations or updates by admins. |
| A security flaw has been discovered in Papermerge DMS up to 3.5.3. This issue affects some unknown processing of the component Authorization Token Handler. Performing manipulation results in improper authorization. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been released to the public and may be exploited. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. |
| A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in veal98 小牛肉 Echo 开源社区系统 4.2. Affected is the function preHandle of the file src/main/java/com/greate/community/controller/interceptor/LoginTicketInterceptor.java of the component Ticket Handler. The manipulation leads to improper authorization. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. |
