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. |
| Installation file of ESET security products on Windows
allow an attacker to misuse to delete an arbitrary file without having the permissions to do so. |
| Acer ControlCenter contains Remote Code Execution vulnerability. The program exposes a Windows Named Pipe that uses a custom protocol to invoke internal functions. However, this Named Pipe is misconfigured, allowing remote users with low privileges to interact with it and access its features. One such feature enables the execution of arbitrary programs as NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM. By leveraging this, remote attackers can execute arbitrary code on the target system with elevated privileges. |
| CMService.exe creates the C:\\usr directory and subdirectories with insecure permissions, granting write access to all authenticated users. This allows attackers to replace configuration files (such as snmp.conf) or hijack DLLs to escalate privileges. |
| The RupsMon.exe service executable in UPSilon 2000 has insecure permissions, allowing the 'Everyone' group Full Control. A local attacker can replace the executable with a malicious binary to execute code with SYSTEM privileges or simply change the config path of the service to a command; starting and stopping the service to immediately achieve code execution and privilege escalation |
| An issue with WordPress directory names in WebPros WordPress Toolkit before 6.9.1 allows privilege escalation. |
| Chef InSpec versions up to 5.23 and before 7.0.107 creates named pipes with overly permissive default Windows access controls. A local attacker may interfere with the pipe connection process and exploit the insufficient access restrictions to assume the InSpec execution context, potentially resulting in elevated privileges or operational disruption.
This issue affects Chef Inspec: through 5.23 and before 7.0.107 |
| Malwarebytes AdwCleaner before v.8.7.0 runs as Administrator and performs an insecure log file delete operation in which the target location is user-controllable, allowing a non-admin user to escalate privileges to SYSTEM via a symbolic link, a related issue to CVE-2023-28892. To exploit this, an attacker must create a file in a given folder path and intercept the application log file deletion flow. |
| theshit is a command-line utility that automatically detects and fixes common mistakes in shell commands. Prior to version 0.1.1, the application loads custom Python rules and configuration files from user-writable locations (e.g., `~/.config/theshit/`) without validating ownership or permissions when executed with elevated privileges. If the tool is invoked with `sudo` or otherwise runs with an effective UID of root, it continues to trust configuration files originating from the unprivileged user's environment. This allows a local attacker to inject arbitrary Python code via a malicious rule or configuration file, which is then executed with root privileges. Any system where this tool is executed with elevated privileges is affected. In environments where the tool is permitted to run via `sudo` without a password (`NOPASSWD`), a local unprivileged user can escalate privileges to root without additional interaction. The issue has been fixed in version 0.1.1. The patch introduces strict ownership and permission checks for all configuration files and custom rules. The application now enforces that rules are only loaded if they are owned by the effective user executing the tool. When executed with elevated privileges (`EUID=0`), the application refuses to load any files that are not owned by root or that are writable by non-root users. When executed as a non-root user, it similarly refuses to load rules owned by other users. This prevents both vertical and horizontal privilege escalation via execution of untrusted code. If upgrading is not possible, users should avoid executing the application with `sudo` or as the root user. As a temporary mitigation, ensure that directories containing custom rules and configuration files are owned by root and are not writable by non-root users. Administrators may also audit existing custom rules before running the tool with elevated privileges. |
| 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. |
| In OceanBase's Oracle tenant mode, a malicious user with specific privileges can achieve privilege escalation to SYS-level access by executing carefully crafted commands.
This vulnerability only affects OceanBase tenants in Oracle mode. Tenants in MySQL mode are unaffected. |
| There is an improper privilege management vulnerability identified in ManageEngine's Asset Explorer, ServiceDesk Plus, ServiceDesk Plus MSP, and SupportCenter Plus products by Zohocorp.
This vulnerability impacts Asset Explorer versions before 7710, ServiceDesk Plus versions before 15110, ServiceDesk Plus MSP versions before 14940, and SupportCenter Plus versions before 14940. |
| CWE-269: Improper Privilege Management vulnerability exists that could cause privilege escalation and
arbitrary code execution when a privileged engineer user with console access modifies a configuration file
used by a root-level daemon to execute custom scripts. |
| The King Addons for Elementor – Free Elements, Widgets, Templates, and Features for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in versions 24.12.92 to 51.1.14 . This is due to the plugin not properly restricting the roles that users can register with. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register with administrator-level user accounts. |
| The Altiris Core Agent Updater package (AeXNSC.exe) is prone to an elevation of privileges vulnerability through DLL hijacking. |
| 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). |
| A vulnerability in the command-line interface of HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN Gateways could allow an authenticated remote attacker to escalate privileges. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may enable the attacker to execute arbitrary system commands with root privileges on the underlying operating system. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| The Mementor Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.5. This is due to plugin not properly handling the user switch back function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to elevate their privileges by accessing an administrator account through the switch back functionality. |
