An unprivileged Windows user on the VDA can perform arbitrary command execution as SYSTEM in CVAD versions before 2009, 1912 LTSR CU1 hotfixes CTX285870 and CTX286120, 7.15 LTSR CU6 hotfix CTX285344 and 7.6 LTSR CU9

An authorised user on a Windows host running Citrix Universal Print Server can perform arbitrary command execution as SYSTEM in CVAD versions before 2009, 1912 LTSR CU1 hotfixes CTX285870 and CTX286120, 7.15 LTSR CU6 hotfix CTX285344 and 7.6 LTSR CU9.

A CWE-269: Improper privilege management (write) vulnerability exists in Easergy T300 (Firmware version 1.5.2 and older) which could allow an attacker to elevate their privileges and delete files.

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.)

The HTTP interface of Synaman v5.1 and below was discovered to allow authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code and escalate privileges.

MinIO is a High Performance Object Storage released under GNU Affero General Public License v3.0. A security issue was found where an non-admin user is able to create service accounts for root or other admin users and then is able to assume their access policies via the generated credentials. This in turn allows the user to escalate privilege to that of the root user. This vulnerability has been resolved in pull request #14729 and is included in `RELEASE.2022-04-12T06-55-35Z`. Users unable to upgrade may workaround this issue by explicitly adding a `admin:CreateServiceAccount` deny policy, however, this, in turn, denies the user the ability to create their own service accounts as well.

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.

OpenBao exists to provide a software solution to manage, store, and distribute sensitive data including secrets, certificates, and keys. In versions 2.3.1 and below, accounts with access to highly-privileged identity entity systems in root namespaces were able to increase their scope directly to the root policy. While the identity system allowed adding arbitrary policies, which in turn could contain capability grants on arbitrary paths, the root policy was restricted to manual generation using unseal or recovery key shares. The global root policy was not accessible from child namespaces. This issue is fixed in version 2.3.2. To workaround this vulnerability, use of denied_parameters in any policy which has access to the affected identity endpoints (on identity entities) may be sufficient to prohibit this type of attack.

A Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in SUSE Rancher, allows users with access to the escalate verb on PRTBs to escalate permissions for any -promoted resource in any cluster. This issue affects: SUSE Rancher Rancher versions prior to 2.5.17; Rancher versions prior to 2.6.10.

A command injection issue was discovered on Supermicro X11SSM-F, X11SAE-F, and X11SSE-F 1.66 devices. An attacker can exploit this to elevate privileges from a user with BMC administrative privileges.

Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco Jabber for Windows, Jabber for MacOS, and Jabber for mobile platforms could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary programs on the underlying operating system (OS) with elevated privileges or gain access to sensitive information. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory.

A non-primary administrator user with admin rights to the web interface but without shell access permissions can display configuration of the device including the master admin password. This vulnerability also allows the user to give themselves shell access with the root gid.

PhoneSystem Terminal in 3CX Phone System (Debian based installation) 16.0.0.1570 allows an attacker to gain root privileges by using sudo with the tcpdump command, without a password. This occurs because the -z (aka postrotate-command) option to tcpdump can be unsafe when used in conjunction with sudo.

Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in Crocoblock JetFormBuilder allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects JetFormBuilder: from n/a through 3.0.8.

In PHOENIX CONTACTs WP 6xxx series web panels in versions prior to 4.0.10 the SNMP daemon is running with root privileges allowing a remote attacker with knowledge of the SNMPv2 r/w community string to execute system commands as root.

A privilege escalation vulnerability in ZOOM Call Recording 6.3.1 allows its user account (i.e., the account under which the program runs - by default, the callrec account) to elevate privileges to root by abusing the callrec-rs@.service. The callrec-rs@.service starts the /opt/callrec/bin/rs binary with root privileges, and this binary is owned by callrec. It can be replaced by a Trojan horse.

A vulnerability allowing an authenticated user with the Backup Operator role to modify backup jobs, which could execute arbitrary code.

A vulnerability in the authorization subsystem of Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an authenticated but unprivileged (level 1), remote attacker to run privileged Cisco IOS commands by using the web UI. The vulnerability is due to improper validation of user privileges of web UI users. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by submitting a malicious payload to a specific endpoint in the web UI. A successful exploit could allow the lower-privileged attacker to execute arbitrary commands with higher privileges on the affected device.

An issue was discovered on Zyxel GS1900 devices with firmware before 2.50(AAHH.0)C0. User accounts created through the web interface of the device, when given non-admin level privileges, have the same level of privileged access as administrators when connecting to the device via SSH (while their permissions via the web interface are in fact restricted). This allows normal users to obtain the administrative password by running the tech-support command via the CLI: this contains the encrypted passwords for all users on the device. As these passwords are encrypted using well-known and static parameters, they can be decrypted and the original passwords (including the administrator password) can be obtained.

An Improper Privilege Management vulnerability [CWE-269] affecting Fortinet FortiOS version 7.6.0 through 7.6.1, 7.4.0 through 7.4.6, 7.2.0 through 7.2.10, 7.0.0 through 7.0.16 and before 6.4.15, FortiProxy version 7.6.0 through 7.6.1 and before 7.4.7 & FortiWeb version 7.6.0 through 7.6.1 and before 7.4.6 allows an authenticated attacker with at least read-only admin permissions to gain super-admin privileges via crafted requests to Node.js websocket module.

An issue was discovered in slicer69 doas before 6.2 on certain platforms other than OpenBSD. A setusercontext(3) call with flags to change the UID, primary GID, and secondary GIDs was replaced (on certain platforms: Linux and possibly NetBSD) with a single setuid(2) call. This resulted in neither changing the group id nor initializing secondary group ids.

An issue was discovered in Comelit "App lejos de casa (web)" 2.8.0. It allows privilege escalation via modified domus and logged fields, related to js/bridge.min.js and login.json. For example, an attacker can achieve high privileges (installer or administrator) for the graphical interface via a 1C000000000S value for domus, in conjunction with a zero value for logged.

A vulnerability has been identified when granting a create or * global role for a resource type of "namespaces"; no matter the API group, the subject will receive * permissions for core namespaces. This can lead to someone being capable of accessing, creating, updating, or deleting a namespace in the project.

MikroTik RouterOS stable before 6.49.7 and long-term through 6.48.6 are vulnerable to a privilege escalation issue. A remote and authenticated attacker can escalate privileges from admin to super-admin on the Winbox or HTTP interface. The attacker can abuse this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.

An issue was discovered on the ENTTEC Datagate MK2, Storm 24, Pixelator, and E-Streamer MK2 with firmware 70044_update_05032019-482. They allow high-privileged root access by www-data via sudo without requiring appropriate access control. (Furthermore, the user account that controls the web application service is granted full access to run any system commands with elevated privilege, without the need for password authentication. Should vulnerabilities be identified and exploited within the web application, it may be possible for a threat actor to create or run high-privileged binaries or executables that are available within the operating system of the device.)

A vulnerability has been identified in SINEMA Server (All versions < V14.0 SP2 Update 1). Incorrect session validation could allow an attacker with a valid session, with low privileges, to perform firmware updates and other administrative operations on connected devices. The security vulnerability could be exploited by an attacker with network access to the affected system. An attacker must have access to a low privileged account in order to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker could use the vulnerability to compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system and underlying components. At the time of advisory publication no public exploitation of this security vulnerability was known.

An issue in Ocuco Innovation - JOBMANAGER.EXE v2.10.24.16 allows attackers to bypass authentication and escalate privileges to Administrator via a crafted TCP packet.

Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in realmag777 HUSKY allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects HUSKY: from n/a through 1.3.6.1.

In Phoenix Contact FL SWITCH Series 2xxx in version 3.00 an incorrect privilege assignment allows an low privileged user to enable full access to the device configuration.

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.

A vulnerability has been identified in SINEC Traffic Analyzer (6GK8822-1BG01-0BA0) (All versions < V2.0). The affected application mounts the container's root filesystem with read and write privileges. This could allow an attacker to alter the container's filesystem leading to unauthorized modifications and data corruption.

IBM API Connect 5.0.0.0 through 5.0.8.4 allows a user with limited 'API Administrator level access to give themselves full 'Administrator' level access through the members functionality. IBM X-Force ID: 153914.

An issue was discovered in the Tightrope Media Carousel digital signage product 7.0.4.104. Due to insecure default permissions on the C:\TRMS\Services directory, an attacker who has gained access to the system can elevate their privileges from a restricted account to full SYSTEM by replacing the Carousel.Service.exe file with a custom malicious executable. This service is independent of the associated IIS web site, which means that this service can be manipulated by an attacker without losing access to vulnerabilities in the web interface (which would potentially be used in conjunction with this attack, to control the service). Once the attacker has replaced Carousel.Service.exe, the server can be restarted using the command "shutdown -r -t 0" from a web shell, causing the system to reboot and launching the malicious Carousel.Service.exe as SYSTEM on startup. If this malicious Carousel.Service.exe is configured to launch a reverse shell back to the attacker, then upon reboot the attacker will have a fully privileged remote command-line environment to manipulate the system further.

Scylladb is a NoSQL data store using the seastar framework, compatible with Apache Cassandra. Authenticated users who are authorized to create tables in a keyspace can escalate their privileges to access a table in the same keyspace, even if they don't have permissions for that table. This issue has not yet been patched. A workaround to address this issue is to disable CREATE privileges on a keyspace, and create new tables on behalf of other users.

A vulnerability has been identified in ROX II (All versions < V2.12.1). An authenticated attacker with a high-privileged user account access via SSH could circumvent restrictions in place and execute arbitrary operating system commands. Successful exploitation requires that the attacker has network access to the SSH interface in on port 22/tcp. The attacker must be authenticated to exploit the vulnerability. The vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the device.

In Apache Karaf prior to 4.2.0 release, if the sshd service in Karaf is left on so an administrator can manage the running instance, any user with rights to the Karaf console can pivot and read/write any file on the file system to which the Karaf process user has access. This can be locked down a bit by using chroot to change the root directory to protect files outside of the Karaf install directory; it can be further locked down by defining a security manager policy that limits file system access to those directories beneath the Karaf home that are necessary for the system to run. However, this still allows anyone with ssh access to the Karaf process to read and write a large number of files as the Karaf process user.

Quest DR Series Disk Backup software version before 4.0.3.1 allows privilege escalation (issue 2 of 6).

Sulu is an open-source PHP content management system based on the Symfony framework. In affected versions Sulu users who have access to any subset of the admin UI are able to elevate their privilege. Over the API it was possible for them to give themselves permissions to areas which they did not already had. This issue was introduced in 2.0.0-RC1 with the new ProfileController putAction. The versions have been patched in 2.2.18, 2.3.8 and 2.4.0. For users unable to upgrade the only known workaround is to apply a patch to the ProfileController manually.

The JetFormBuilder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.4.1. This is due to improper restriction on user meta fields. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level and above permissions, to register as super-admins on the sites configured as multi-sites.

In version 3.5 and prior of Cambium Networks ePMP firmware, the non-administrative users 'installer' and 'home' have the capability of changing passwords for other accounts, including admin, after disabling a client-side protection mechanism.

Ghost is a Node.js content management system. An error in the implementation of the limits service between versions 4.0.0 and 4.9.4 allows all authenticated users (including contributors) to view admin-level API keys via the integrations API endpoint, leading to a privilege escalation vulnerability. This issue is patched in Ghost version 4.10.0. As a workaround, disable all non-Administrator accounts to prevent API access. It is highly recommended to regenerate all API keys after patching or applying the workaround.

An issue was discovered in Cloud Foundry Foundation cf-release versions prior to v260; UAA release 2.x versions prior to v2.7.4.16, 3.6.x versions prior to v3.6.10, 3.9.x versions prior to v3.9.12, and other versions prior to v3.17.0; and UAA bosh release (uaa-release) 13.x versions prior to v13.14, 24.x versions prior to v24.9, 30.x versions prior to 30.2, and other versions prior to v36. Privileged users in one zone are allowed to perform a password reset for users in a different zone.

Dell EMC Avamar Server versions 18.2, 19.1, 19.2, 19.3, and 19.4 contain an improper privilege management vulnerability in AUI. A malicious user with high privileges could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to the disclosure of the AUI info and performing some unauthorized operation on the AUI.
