Privilege escalation due to insecure directory permissions affecting ViveportDesktopService in HTC VIVEPORT before 1.0.0.36 allows local attackers to escalate privileges via DLL hijacking.

The unofficial C/C++ Advanced Lint extension before 1.9.0 for Visual Studio Code allows attackers to execute arbitrary binaries if the user opens a crafted repository.

In Chris Walz bit before 1.0.5 on Windows, attackers can run arbitrary code via a .exe file in a crafted repository.

Akeo Consulting Rufus 3.0 and earlier is affected by: DLL search order hijacking. The impact is: Arbitrary code execution WITH escalation of privilege. The component is: Executable installers, portable executables (ALL executables on the web site). The attack vector is: CAPEC-471, CWE-426, CWE-427.

Quick Heal Total Security 64 bit 17.00 (QHTS64.exe), (QHTSFT64.exe) - Version 10.0.1.38; Quick Heal Total Security 32 bit 17.00 (QHTS32.exe), (QHTSFT32.exe) - Version 10.0.1.38; Quick Heal Internet Security 64 bit 17.00 (QHIS64.exe), (QHISFT64.exe) - Version 10.0.0.37; Quick Heal Internet Security 32 bit 17.00 (QHIS32.exe), (QHISFT32.exe) - Version 10.0.0.37; Quick Heal AntiVirus Pro 64 bit 17.00 (QHAV64.exe), (QHAVFT64.exe) - Version 10.0.0.37; and Quick Heal AntiVirus Pro 32 bit 17.00 (QHAV32.exe), (QHAVFT32.exe) - Version 10.0.0.37 allow DLL Hijacking because of Insecure Library Loading.

A Uncontrolled Search Path Element (CWE-427) vulnerability exists in VideoXpert OpsCenter versions prior to 3.1 which could allow an attacker to cause the system to call an incorrect DLL.

A DLL hijacking vulnerability exists in Schneider Electric Software Update (SESU), all versions prior to V2.2.0, which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the targeted system when placing a specific DLL file.

Norton Power Eraser (prior to 5.3.0.24) and SymDiag (prior to 2.1.242) may be susceptible to a DLL Preloading vulnerability, which is a type of issue that can occur when an application looks to call a DLL for execution and an attacker provides a malicious DLL to use instead. Depending on how the application is configured, it will generally follow a specific search path to locate the DLL. The vulnerability can be exploited by a simple file write (or potentially an over-write) which results in a foreign DLL running under the context of the application.

PC-Doctor Toolbox before 7.3 has an Uncontrolled Search Path Element.

Luxion KeyShot BIP File Parsing Uncontrolled Search Path Element Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Luxion KeyShot. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of BIP files. The issue results from loading a library from an unsecured location. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-22738.

In AutomationDirect CLICK Programming Software (Part Number C0-PGMSW) Versions 2.10 and prior; C-More Programming Software (Part Number EA9-PGMSW) Versions 6.30 and prior; C-More Micro (Part Number EA-PGMSW) Versions 4.20.01.0 and prior; Do-more Designer Software (Part Number DM-PGMSW) Versions 2.0.3 and prior; GS Drives Configuration Software (Part Number GSOFT) Versions 4.0.6 and prior; SL-SOFT SOLO Temperature Controller Configuration Software (Part Number SL-SOFT) Versions 1.1.0.5 and prior; and DirectSOFT Programming Software Versions 6.1 and prior, an uncontrolled search path element (DLL Hijacking) vulnerability has been identified. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker could rename a malicious DLL to meet the criteria of the application, and the application would not verify that the DLL is correct. Once loaded by the application, the DLL could run malicious code at the privilege level of the application.
