In Octopus Deploy versions 3.2.11 - 4.1.5 (fixed in 4.1.6), an authenticated user with ProcessEdit permission could reference an Azure account in such a way as to bypass the scoping restrictions, resulting in a potential escalation of privileges.
A vulnerability has been identified in RAPIDLab 1200 systems / RAPIDPoint 400 systems / RAPIDPoint 500 systems (All versions_without_ use of Siemens Healthineers Informatics products), RAPIDLab 1200 Series (All versions < V3.3 _with_ Siemens Healthineers Informatics products), RAPIDPoint 500 systems (All versions >= V3.0 _with_ Siemens Healthineers Informatics products), RAPIDPoint 500 systems (V2.4.X_with_ Siemens Healthineers Informatics products), RAPIDPoint 500 systems (All versions =< V2.3 _with_ Siemens Healthineers Informatics products), RAPIDPoint 400 systems (All versions _with_ Siemens Healthineers Informatics products). Remote attackers with either local or remote credentialed access to the "Remote View" feature might be able to elevate their privileges, compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system. No special skills or user interaction are required to perform this attack. At the time of advisory publication, no public exploitation of this security vulnerability is known. Siemens Healthineers confirms the security vulnerability and provides mitigations to resolve the security issue.
In some SAP standard roles, in SAP_ABA versions, 7.00 to 7.02, 7.10 to 7.11, 7.30, 7.31, 7.40, 7.50, 75C to 75D, a transaction code reserved for customer is used. By implementing such transaction code a malicious user may execute unauthorized transaction functionality.
PRTG Network Monitor before 18.2.40.1683 allows an authenticated user with a read-only account to create another user with a read-write account (including administrator) via an HTTP request because /api/addusers doesn't check, or doesn't properly check, user rights.
An issue was discovered in ADTRAN PMAA 1.6.2-1, 1.6.3, and 1.6.4. NETCONF Access Management (NACM) allows unprivileged users to create privileged users and execute arbitrary commands via the use of the diagnostic-profile over RESTCONF.
Certain Secure Access SA Series SSL VPN products (originally developed by Juniper Networks but now sold and supported by Pulse Secure, LLC) allow privilege escalation, as demonstrated by Secure Access SSL VPN SA-4000 5.1R5 (build 9627) 4.2 Release (build 7631). This occurs because appropriate controls are not performed. Specifically, it is possible for a readonly user to change the administrator user password by making a local copy of the /dana-admin/user/update.cgi page, changing the "user" value, and saving the changes.
Icinga is a monitoring system which checks the availability of network resources, notifies users of outages, and generates performance data for reporting. From version 2.4.0 through version 2.12.4, a vulnerability exists that may allow privilege escalation for authenticated API users. With a read-ony user's credentials, an attacker can view most attributes of all config objects including `ticket_salt` of `ApiListener`. This salt is enough to compute a ticket for every possible common name (CN). A ticket, the master node's certificate, and a self-signed certificate are enough to successfully request the desired certificate from Icinga. That certificate may in turn be used to steal an endpoint or API user's identity. Versions 2.12.5 and 2.11.10 both contain a fix the vulnerability. As a workaround, one may either specify queryable types explicitly or filter out ApiListener objects.
TeamPass before 2.1.27.9 does not properly enforce item access control when requesting items.queries.php. It is then possible to copy any arbitrary item into a directory controlled by the attacker, edit any item within a read-only directory, delete an arbitrary item, delete the file attachments of an arbitrary item, copy the password of an arbitrary item to the copy/paste buffer, access the history of an arbitrary item, and edit attributes of an arbitrary directory. To exploit the vulnerability, an authenticated attacker must tamper with the requests sent directly, for example by changing the "item_id" parameter when invoking "copy_item" on items.queries.php.
An issue was discovered in Joomla! before 3.8.13. If an attacker gets access to the mail account of an user who can approve admin verifications in the registration process, he can activate himself.
A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in MONyog Ultimate 6.63. This affects an unknown part of the component Cookie Handler. The manipulation of the argument HasServerEdit/IsAdmin leads to privilege escalation. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely.
The identity zones feature in Pivotal Cloud Foundry 208 through 229; UAA 2.0.0 through 2.7.3 and 3.0.0; UAA-Release 2 through 4, when configured with multiple identity zones; and Elastic Runtime 1.6.0 through 1.6.13 allows remote authenticated users with privileges in one zone to gain privileges and perform operations on a different zone via unspecified vectors.
Inteno routers have a JUCI ACL misconfiguration that allows the "user" account to read files, write to files, and add root SSH keys via JSON commands to ubus. (Exploitation is sometimes easy because the "user" password might be "user" or might match the Wi-Fi key.)
GitLab Community Edition (CE) and Enterprise Edition (EE) before 9.0.11, 9.1.8, 9.2.8 allow an authenticated user with the ability to create a group to add themselves to any project that is inside a subgroup.

Ubiquiti Networks EdgeOS version 1.9.1.1 and prior suffer from an Improper Privilege Management vulnerability due to the lack of validation on the input of the Feature functionality. An attacker with access to an operator (read-only) account and ssh connection to the devices could escalate privileges to admin (root) access in the system.
In Code42 for Enterprise through 6.8.4, an administrator without web restore permission but with the ability to manage users in an organization can impersonate a user with web restore permission. When requesting the token to do a web restore, an administrator with permission to manage a user could request the token of that user. If the administrator was not authorized to perform web restores but the user was authorized to perform web restores, this would allow the administrator to impersonate the user with greater permissions. In order to exploit this vulnerability, the user would have to be an administrator with access to manage an organization with a user with greater permissions than themselves.
IBM Event Streams 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3 could allow a user the CA private key to create their own certificates and deploy them in the cluster and gain privileges of another user. IBM X-Force ID: 203450.

IBM Security Guardium Insights 2.0.1 performs an operation at a privilege level that is higher than the minimum level required, which creates new weaknesses or amplifies the consequences of other weaknesses. IBM X-Force ID: 184880.
The elementor plugin before 1.8.0 for WordPress has incorrect access control for internal functions.
x26-Cogs is a repository of cogs made by Twentysix for the Red Discord bot. Among these cogs is the Defender cog, a tool for Discord server moderation. A vulnerability in the Defender cog prior to version 1.10.0 allows users with admin privileges to issue commands as other users who share the same server. If a bot owner shares the same server as the attacker, it is possible for the attacker to issue bot-owner restricted commands. The issue has been patched in version 1.10.0. One may unload the Defender cog as a workaround.

The WordPress plugin, WP Database Reset through 3.1, contains a flaw that gave any authenticated user, with minimal permissions, the ability (with a simple wp-admin/admin.php?db-reset-tables[]=users request) to escalate their privileges to administrator while dropping all other users from the table.
SAP Landscape Management, version 3.0, and SAP Adaptive Extensions, version 1.0, allows an attacker with admin_group privileges to change ownership and permissions (including S-user ID bit s-bit) of arbitrary files remotely. This results in the possibility to execute these files as root user from a non-root context, leading to Privilege Escalation.
Pivotal Operations Manager, versions 2.0.x prior to 2.0.24, versions 2.1.x prior to 2.1.15, versions 2.2.x prior to 2.2.7, and versions 2.3.x prior to 2.3.1, grants all users a scope which allows for privilege escalation. A remote malicious user who has been authenticated may create a new client with administrator privileges for Opsman.
Improper Access Control in Teltonika firmware TRB2_R_00.02.04.01 allows a low privileged user to perform unauthorized write operations.
An issue was discovered in the Ultimate Member plugin before 2.1.12 for WordPress, aka Authenticated Privilege Escalation via Profile Update. Any user with wp-admin access to the profile.php page could supply the parameter um-role with a value set to any role (e.g., Administrator) during a profile update, and effectively escalate their privileges.
NodeBB before version 1.14.3 has a bug introduced in version 1.12.2 in the validation logic that makes it possible to change the password of any user on a running NodeBB forum by sending a specially crafted socket.io call to the server. This could lead to a privilege escalation event due via an account takeover. As a workaround you may cherry-pick the following commit from the project's repository to your running instance of NodeBB: 16cee1b03ba3eee177834a1fdac4aa8a12b39d2a. This is fixed in version 1.14.3.
