It was discovered that the jboss init script as used in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.7.GA performed unsafe file handling which could result in local privilege escalation. This issue is a result of an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-8656.

The dvd_read_bca function in the DVD handling code in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c in Linux kernel 2.2.16, and later versions, assigns the wrong value to a length variable, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a crafted USB Storage device that triggers a buffer overflow.

ubuntu-image 1.0 before 2017-07-07, when invoked as non-root, creates files in the resulting image with the uid of the invoking user. When the resulting image is booted, a local attacker with the same uid as the image creator has unintended access to cloud-init and snapd directories.

Insufficient restrictions on what can be done with Apple Events in Google Chrome on macOS prior to 72.0.3626.81 allowed a local attacker to execute JavaScript via Apple Events.

In QEMU 3.0.0, tcp_emu in slirp/tcp_subr.c has a heap-based buffer overflow.

udev does not properly set permissions on certain files in /dev/input, which allows local users to obtain sensitive data that is entered at the console, such as user passwords.

Jboss jbossas before versions 5.2.0-23, 6.4.13, 7.0.5 is vulnerable to an unsafe file handling in the jboss init script which could result in local privilege escalation.

An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the quota file functionality of E2fsprogs 1.45.3. A specially crafted ext4 partition can cause an out-of-bounds write on the heap, resulting in code execution. An attacker can corrupt a partition to trigger this vulnerability.

The XSLoader::load method in XSLoader in Perl does not properly locate .so files when called in a string eval, which might allow local users to execute arbitrary code via a Trojan horse library under the current working directory.

ovirt-engine-webadmin, as used in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager (aka RHEV-M) for Servers and RHEV-M 4.0, allows physically proximate attackers to bypass a webadmin session timeout restriction via vectors related to UI selections, which trigger repeating queries.

The wrapper program in mailman 2.0beta3 and 2.0beta4 does not properly cleanse untrusted format strings, which allows local users to gain privileges.

A flaw was found in Red Hat Satellite 6 which allows privileged attacker to read cache files. These cache credentials could help attacker to gain complete control of the Satellite instance.

Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) in Red Hat Linux 6.1 does not properly lock access to disabled NIS accounts.

Red Hat Linux 6.0 installs the /dev/pts file system with insecure modes, which allows local users to write to other tty devices.

Buffer overflow in bash 2.0.0, 1.4.17, and other versions allows local attackers to gain privileges by creating an extremely large directory name, which is inserted into the password prompt via the \w option in the PS1 environmental variable when another user changes into that directory.

Bash treats any character with a value of 255 as a command separator.

mount.ecryptfs_private.c in eCryptfs-utils does not validate mount destination filesystem types, which allows local users to gain privileges by mounting over a nonstandard filesystem, as demonstrated by /proc/$pid.

Buffer overflow in SGI IRIX mailx program.

The alsa-lib package in Red Hat Linux 4 disables stack protection for the libasound.so library, which makes it easier for attackers to execute arbitrary code if there are other vulnerabilities in the library.

zgrep in gzip before 1.3.5 does not properly sanitize arguments, which allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via filenames that are injected into a sed script.

It was discovered that a systemd service that uses DynamicUser property can get new privileges through the execution of SUID binaries, which would allow to create binaries owned by the service transient group with the setgid bit set. A local attacker may use this flaw to access resources that will be owned by a potentially different service in the future, when the GID will be recycled.

It was discovered that the gnome-shell lock screen since version 3.15.91 did not properly restrict all contextual actions. An attacker with physical access to a locked workstation could invoke certain keyboard shortcuts, and potentially other actions.

It was discovered that a systemd service that uses DynamicUser property can create a SUID/SGID binary that would be allowed to run as the transient service UID/GID even after the service is terminated. A local attacker may use this flaw to access resources that will be owned by a potentially different service in the future, when the UID/GID will be recycled.

A use-after-free in binder.c allows an elevation of privilege from an application to the Linux Kernel. No user interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability, however exploitation does require either the installation of a malicious local application or a separate vulnerability in a network facing application.Product: AndroidAndroid ID: A-141720095

In Vim before 8.1.0881, users can circumvent the rvim restricted mode and execute arbitrary OS commands via scripting interfaces (e.g., Python, Ruby, or Lua).

The lxd-unix.socket systemd unit file in the Ubuntu lxd package before 0.20-0ubuntu4.1 uses world-readable permissions for /var/lib/lxd/unix.socket, which allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

sosreport in SoS 3.x allows local users to obtain sensitive information from sosreport files or gain privileges via a symlink attack on an archive file in a temporary directory, as demonstrated by sosreport-$hostname-$date.tar in /tmp/sosreport-$hostname-$date.

A vulnerability was found in all openshift/mediawiki-apb 4.x.x versions prior to 4.3.0, where an insecure modification vulnerability in the /etc/passwd file was found in the container openshift/mediawiki-apb. An attacker with access to the container could use this flaw to modify /etc/passwd and escalate their privileges.

An insecure modification vulnerability in the /etc/passwd file was found in the operator-framework/hadoop as shipped in Red Hat Openshift 4. An attacker with access to the container could use this flaw to modify /etc/passwd and escalate their privileges.

A heap-based buffer overflow in the vrend_renderer_transfer_write_iov function in vrend_renderer.c in virglrenderer through 0.8.0 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service, or QEMU guest-to-host escape and code execution, via VIRGL_CCMD_RESOURCE_INLINE_WRITE commands.

An insecure modification vulnerability in the /etc/passwd file was found in the openshift/ansible-service-broker as shipped in Red Hat Openshift 4 and 3.11. An attacker with access to the container could use this flaw to modify /etc/passwd and escalate their privileges.

Double free vulnerability in the krb5_rd_cred function for MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) 1.3.1 and earlier may allow local users to execute arbitrary code.

Integer overflow in the sg_start_req function in drivers/scsi/sg.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.x through 4.x before 4.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large iov_count value in a write request.

In shiftfs, a non-upstream patch to the Linux kernel included in the Ubuntu 5.0 and 5.3 kernel series, shiftfs_btrfs_ioctl_fd_replace() calls fdget(oldfd), then without further checks passes the resulting file* into shiftfs_real_fdget(), which casts file->private_data, a void* that points to a filesystem-dependent type, to a "struct shiftfs_file_info *". As the private_data is not required to be a pointer, an attacker can use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Certain USB drivers in the Linux 2.4 kernel use the copy_to_user function on uninitialized structures, which could allow local users to obtain sensitive information by reading memory that was not cleared from previous usage.

usb-creator before 0.2.38.3ubuntu0.1 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, before 0.2.56.3ubuntu0.1 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, before 0.2.62ubuntu0.3 on Ubuntu 14.10, and before 0.2.67ubuntu0.1 on Ubuntu 15.04 allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging a missing call check_polkit for the KVMTest method.
