Firejail before 0.9.44.6 and 0.9.38.x LTS before 0.9.38.10 LTS does not comprehensively address dotfile cases during its attempt to prevent accessing user files with an euid of zero, which allows local users to conduct sandbox-escape attacks via vectors involving a symlink and the --private option. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-5180.
In AccessibilityServiceConnection.java, there is a possible background activity launch due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
In Sage 300 ERP (formerly accpac) through 6.8.x, the installer configures the C:\Sage\Sage300\Runtime directory to be the first entry in the system-wide PATH environment variable. However, this directory is writable by unprivileged users because the Sage installer fails to set explicit permissions and therefore inherits weak permissions from the C:\ folder. Because entries in the system-wide PATH variable are included in the search order for DLLs, an attacker could perform DLL search-order hijacking to escalate their privileges to SYSTEM. Furthermore, if the Global Search or Web Screens functionality is enabled, then privilege escalation is possible via the GlobalSearchService and Sage.CNA.WindowsService services, again via DLL search-order hijacking because unprivileged users would have modify permissions on the application directory. Note that while older versions of the software default to installing in %PROGRAMFILES(X86)% (which would allow the Sage folder to inherit strong permissions, making the installation not vulnerable), the official Sage 300 installation guides for those versions recommend installing in C:\Sage, which would make the installation vulnerable.

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in ShadeYouVPN.com Client 2.0.1.11. Affected is an unknown function. The manipulation leads to improper privilege management. Local access is required to approach this attack. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. Upgrading to version 2.0.1.12 is able to address this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.
The Debian shadow package before 1:4.5-1 for Shadow incorrectly lists pts/0 and pts/1 as physical terminals in /etc/securetty. This allows local users to login as password-less users even if they are connected by non-physical means such as SSH (hence bypassing PAM's nullok_secure configuration). This notably affects environments such as virtual machines automatically generated with a default blank root password, allowing all local users to escalate privileges.
A vulnerability was found in Teradici Management Console 2.2.0. It has been declared as critical. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the component Database Management. The manipulation leads to improper privilege management. It is possible to launch the attack on the local host. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

The Gentoo net-im/jabberd2 package through 2.6.1 installs jabberd, jabberd2-c2s, jabberd2-router, jabberd2-s2s, and jabberd2-sm in /usr/bin owned by the jabber account, which might allow local users to gain privileges by leveraging access to this account and then waiting for root to execute one of these programs.
The (1) arq_updater, (2) arqcommitter, (3) standardrestorer, (4) arqglacierrestorer, and (5) arqs3glacierrestorer helper apps in Arq 5.x before 5.10 for Mac allow local users to gain root privileges via a crafted data packet.
A low privileged local attacker can leverage insecure permissions via SSH on the affected devices to escalate privileges to root.

Windows AppX Deployment Extensions Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
VMware Aria Operations contains a local privilege escalation vulnerability. A malicious actor with local administrative privileges can escalate their privileges to root on the appliance running VMware Aria Operations.
A vulnerability in ConfD could allow an authenticated, local attacker to execute arbitrary commands at the level of the account under which ConfD is running, which is commonly root. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must have a valid account on an affected device. The vulnerability exists because the affected software incorrectly runs the SFTP user service at the privilege level of the account that was running when the ConfD built-in Secure Shell (SSH) server for CLI was enabled. If the ConfD built-in SSH server was not enabled, the device is not affected by this vulnerability. An attacker with low-level privileges could exploit this vulnerability by authenticating to an affected device and issuing a series of commands at the SFTP interface. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to elevate privileges to the level of the account under which ConfD is running, which is commonly root. Note: Any user who can authenticate to the built-in SSH server may exploit this vulnerability. By default, all ConfD users have this access if the server is enabled. Software updates that address this vulnerability have been released.
A vulnerability has been identified in SICAM TOOLBOX II (All versions < V07.10). Affected applications do not properly set permissions for product folders. This could allow an authenticated attacker with low privileges to replace DLLs and conduct a privilege escalation.
