A flaw was found in New Horizon Datasys bootloaders before 2022-06-01. An attacker may use this bootloader to bypass or tamper with Secure Boot protections. In order to load and execute arbitrary code in the pre-boot stage, an attacker simply needs to replace the existing signed bootloader currently in use with this bootloader. Access to the EFI System Partition is required for booting using external media.

A flaw was found in grub2. The calculation of the translation buffer when reading a language .mo file in grub_gettext_getstr_from_position() may overflow, leading to a Out-of-bound write. This issue can be leveraged by an attacker to overwrite grub2's sensitive heap data, eventually leading to the circumvention of secure boot protections.
Windows Secure Kernel Mode Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability
A double-free vulnerability was found in handling vmw_buffer_object objects in the vmwgfx driver in the Linux kernel. This issue occurs due to the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing further free operations on the object, which may allow a local privileged user to escalate privileges and execute code in the context of the kernel.
Windows Secure Kernel Mode Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
This vulnerability allows local user to delete arbitrary file in the system and bypassing security protection which can be abused for local privilege escalation on affected F-Secure & WithSecure windows endpoint products. An attacker must have code execution rights on the victim machine prior to successful exploitation.

Amazon AWS Client VPN has a buffer overflow that could potentially allow a local actor to execute arbitrary commands with elevated permissions. This is resolved in 3.11.1 on Windows, 3.9.1 on macOS, and 3.12.1 on Linux. NOTE: although the macOS resolution is the same as for CVE-2024-30165, this vulnerability on macOS is not the same as CVE-2024-30165.
Secure Boot Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability
Secure Boot Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability
A flaw was found in the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, Event-Driven Ansible (EDA) Event Stream API. This vulnerability allows exposure of sensitive client credentials and internal infrastructure headers via the test_headers field when an event stream is in test mode. The possible outcome includes leakage of internal infrastructure details, accidental disclosure of user or system credentials, privilege escalation if high-value tokens are exposed, and persistent sensitive data exposure to all users with read access on the event stream.
A flaw was found in the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform Gateway route creation component. This vulnerability allows credential theft via the creation of misleading routes using a double-slash (//) prefix in the gateway_path. A malicious or socially engineered administrator can configure a honey-pot route to intercept and exfiltrate user credentials, potentially maintaining persistent access or creating a backdoor even after their permissions are revoked.
Reliance on untrusted inputs in a security decision in Windows Boot Loader allows an authorized attacker to bypass a security feature locally.
Proxy Driver Spoofing Vulnerability

Hypervisor-Protected Code Integrity (HVCI) Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability
A local privilege escalation (PE) vulnerability exists in Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR agent software on Windows that enables an authenticated local user with file creation privilege in the Windows root directory (such as C:\) to execute a program with elevated privileges. This issue impacts: All versions of the Cortex XDR agent when upgrading to Cortex XDR agent 7.7.0 on Windows; Cortex XDR agent 7.7.0 without content update 500 or a later version on Windows. This issue does not impact other platforms or other versions of the Cortex XDR agent.
A local privilege escalation (PE) vulnerability exists in Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR agent software on Windows that enables an authenticated local user with file creation privilege in the Windows root directory (such as C:\) to execute a program with elevated privileges. This issue impacts all versions of Cortex XDR agent without content update 330 or a later content update version.
In SAP Host Agent (Windows) - versions 7.21, 7.22, an attacker who gains local membership to SAP_LocalAdmin could be able to replace executables with a malicious file that will be started under a privileged account. Note that by default all user members of SAP_LocaAdmin are denied the ability to logon locally by security policy so that this can only occur if the system has already been compromised.
Secure Boot Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability
Improper Access Control in Thales Sentinel Protection Installer could allow a local user to escalate privileges.
Thales Safenet Authentication Client (SAC) for Linux and Windows through 10.7.7 creates insecure temporary hid and lock files allowing a local attacker, through a symlink attack, to overwrite arbitrary files, and potentially achieve arbitrary command execution with high privileges.
A use-after-free flaw was found in the __ext4_remount in fs/ext4/super.c in ext4 in the Linux kernel. This flaw allows a local user to cause an information leak problem while freeing the old quota file names before a potential failure, leading to a use-after-free.
A vulnerability has been identified in the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) package, stemming from the mixed privilege levels utilized by systemd services associated with PCP. While certain services operate within the confines of limited PCP user/group privileges, others are granted full root privileges. This disparity in privilege levels poses a risk when privileged root processes interact with directories or directory trees owned by unprivileged PCP users. Specifically, this vulnerability may lead to the compromise of PCP user isolation and facilitate local PCP-to-root exploits, particularly through symlink attacks. These vulnerabilities underscore the importance of maintaining robust privilege separation mechanisms within PCP to mitigate the potential for unauthorized privilege escalation.
A symbolic link issue was found in rpm. It occurs when rpm sets the desired permissions and credentials after installing a file. A local unprivileged user could use this flaw to exchange the original file with a symbolic link to a security-critical file and escalate their privileges on the system. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
It was found that the fix for CVE-2017-7500 and CVE-2017-7501 was incomplete: the check was only implemented for the parent directory of the file to be created. A local unprivileged user who owns another ancestor directory could potentially use this flaw to gain root privileges. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
