Incorrect permissions for the folder C:\ProgramData\NoMachine\var\uninstall of Nomachine v7.9.2 allows attackers to perform a DLL hijacking attack and execute arbitrary code.
ActFax Version 7.10 Build 0335 (2020-05-25) is susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability due to insecure folder permissions on %PROGRAMFILES%\ActiveFax\Client\, %PROGRAMFILES%\ActiveFax\Install\ and %PROGRAMFILES%\ActiveFax\Terminal\. The folder permissions allow "Full Control" to "Everyone". An authenticated local attacker can exploit this to replace the TSClientB.exe binary in the Terminal directory, which is executed on logon for every user. Alternatively, the attacker can replace any of the binaries in the Client or Install directories. The latter requires additional user interaction, for example starting the client.
World-writable permissions on the /tmp/tmate/sessions directory in tmate-ssh-server 2.3.0 allow a local attacker to compromise the integrity of session handling, or obtain the read-write session ID from a read-only session symlink in this directory.
Mids' Reborn Hero Designer 2.6.0.7 has an elevation of privilege vulnerability due to default and insecure permissions being set for the installation folder. By default, the Authenticated Users group has Modify permissions to the installation folder. Because of this, any user on the system can replace binaries or plant malicious DLLs to obtain elevated, or different, privileges, depending on the context of the user that runs the application.
A permission issue in the Cohesity Linux agent may allow privilege escalation in version 6.5.1b to 6.5.1d-hotfix10, 6.6.0a to 6.6.0b-hotfix1. An underprivileged linux user, if certain environment criteria are met, can gain additional privileges.
An incorrect permission vulnerability in the product installer folders for Trend Micro HouseCall for Home Networks version 5.3.1179 and below could allow an attacker to escalate privileges by placing arbitrary code on a specified folder and have that code be executed by an Administrator who is running a scan. Please note that an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system to exploit this vulnerability.
In SmartDraw 2020 27.0.0.0, the installer gives inherited write permissions to the Authenticated Users group on the SmartDraw 2020 installation folder. Additionally, when the product is installed, two scheduled tasks are created on the machine, SDMsgUpdate (Local) and SDMsgUpdate (TE). The scheduled tasks run in the context of the user who installed the product. Both scheduled tasks attempt to run the same binary, C:\SmartDraw 2020\Messages\SDNotify.exe. The folder Messages doesn't exist by default and (by extension) neither does SDNotify.exe. Due to the weak folder permissions, these can be created by any user. A malicious actor can therefore create a malicious SDNotify.exe binary, and have it automatically run, whenever the user who installed the product logs on to the machine. The malicious SDNotify.exe could, for example, create a new local administrator account on the machine.
A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in Dream Report 5 R20-2. IIn the default configuration, the following registry keys, which reference binaries with weak permissions, can be abused by attackers to effectively ‘backdoor’ the installation files and escalate privileges when a new user logs in and uses the application.
In the default privileges of NFC, there is a possible local bypass of user interaction requirements on package installation due to a default permission. This could lead to local escalation of privilege by installing an application with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android-8.0 Android-8.1 Android-9Android ID: A-123700348
Multiple files and folders in Utimaco SecurityServer 4.20.0.4 and 4.31.1.0. are installed with Read/Write permissions for authenticated users, which allows for binaries to be manipulated by non-administrator users. Additionally, entries are made to the PATH environment variable which, in conjunction with these weak permissions, could enable an attacker to perform a DLL hijacking attack.
In onCreate of SettingsBaseActivity.java, there is a possible unauthorized setting modification due to a permissions bypass.

LiteManager 4.5.0 has weak permissions (Everyone: Full Control) in the "LiteManagerFree - Server" folder, as demonstrated by ROMFUSClient.exe.
In app uninstallation, there is a possible set of permissions that may not be removed from a shared app ID. This could lead to a local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is needed for exploitation. Product: Android Versions: Android-10 Android ID: A-116608833
Multiple vulnerabilities in the smart tunnel functionality of Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) could allow an authenticated, local attacker to elevate privileges to the root user or load a malicious library file while the tunnel is being established. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this security advisory.
In Ivanti Workspace Control before 10.3.180.0. a locally authenticated user with low privileges can bypass Managed Application Security by leveraging an unspecified attack vector in Workspace Preferences, when it is enabled. As a result, the attacker can start applications that should be blocked.
WavesSysSvc in Waves MAXX Audio allows privilege escalation because the General registry key has Full Control access for the Users group, leading to DLL side loading. This affects WavesSysSvc64.exe 1.9.29.0.
In PyInstaller before version 3.6, only on Windows, a local privilege escalation vulnerability is present in this particular case: If a software using PyInstaller in "onefile" mode is launched by a privileged user (at least more than the current one) which have his "TempPath" resolving to a world writable directory. This is the case for example if the software is launched as a service or as a scheduled task using a system account (TempPath will be C:\Windows\Temp). In order to be exploitable the software has to be (re)started after the attacker launch the exploit program, so for a service launched at startup, a service restart is needed (e.g. after a crash or an upgrade).
NVIDIA GeForce Experience prior to 3.15 contains a vulnerability when GameStream is enabled which sets incorrect permissions on a file, which may to code execution, denial of service, or escalation of privileges by users with system access.
The Pronestor PNHM (aka Health Monitoring or HealthMonitor) add-in before 8.1.13.0 for Outlook has "BUILTIN\Users:(I)(F)" permissions for the "%PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\proNestor\Outlook add-in for Pronestor\PronestorHealthMonitor.exe" file, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse PronestorHealthMonitor.exe file.
Improper file verification in install routine for Intel(R) SGX SDK and Platform Software for Windows before 2.2.100 may allow an escalation of privilege via local access.
When installing Nessus to a directory outside of the default location, Nessus versions prior to 7.0.3 did not enforce secure permissions for sub-directories. This could allow for local privilege escalation if users had not secured the directories in the installation location.
The setup program for the affected product configures its files and folders with full access, which may allow unauthorized users permission to replace original binaries and achieve privilege escalation.
Infotecs ViPNet Client and Coordinator before 4.3.2-42442 allow local users to gain privileges by placing a Trojan horse ViPNet update file in the update folder. The attack succeeds because of incorrect folder permissions in conjunction with a lack of integrity and authenticity checks.
WIN-911 2021 R1 and R2 are vulnerable to a permissions misconfiguration that may allow an attacker to locally write files to the program Operator Workspace directory, which holds DLL files and executables. A low-privilege attacker could write a malicious DLL file to the Operator Workspace directory to achieve privilege escalation and the permissions of the user running the program.
An incorrect permission vulnerability in the product installer for Trend Micro HouseCall for Home Networks version 5.3.1179 and below could allow an attacker to escalate privileges by placing arbitrary code on a specified folder and have that code be executed by an Administrator who is running a scan. Please note that an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system to exploit this vulnerability.
An issue was discovered in Forescout CounterACT before 8.1.4. A local privilege escalation vulnerability is present in the logging function. SecureConnector runs with administrative privileges and writes logs entries to a file in %PROGRAMDATA%\ForeScout SecureConnector\ that has full permissions for the Everyone group. Using a symbolic link allows an attacker to point the log file to a privileged location such as %WINDIR%\System32. The resulting log file adopts the file permissions of the source of the symbolic link (in this case, the Everyone group). The log file in System32 can be replaced and renamed with a malicious DLL for DLL hijacking.
