The ProfileGrid WordPress plugin before 5.3.1 provides an AJAX endpoint for resetting a user password but does not implement proper authorization. This allows a user with low privileges, such as subscriber, to change the password of any account, including Administrator ones.
Delta Electronics InfraSuite Device Master versions prior to 1.0.5 contains an improper access control vulnerability in which an attacker can use the Device-Gateway service and bypass authorization, which could result in privilege escalation.
Vulnerability in the Oracle Payroll product of Oracle E-Business Suite (component: Self Service Manager). Supported versions that are affected are 12.2.3-12.2.15. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Payroll. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Oracle Payroll. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.8 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in pihome-shc PiHome 2.0. This affects an unknown part of the file /user_accounts.php?uid of the component Role-Based Access Control. The manipulation leads to missing authorization. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of ClearPass Policy Manager allows an attacker with read-only privileges to perform actions that change the state of the ClearPass Policy Manager instance. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows an attacker to complete state-changing actions in the web-based management interface that should not be allowed by their current level of authorization on the platform.
A CWE-863: Incorrect Authorization vulnerability exists that could allow access to device credentials on specific DCE endpoints not being properly secured when a hacker is using a low privileged user. Affected products: StruxureWare Data Center Expert (V7.9.2 and prior)
LiteLLM prior to 1.83.10 allows a user to modify their own user_role via the /user/update endpoint. While the endpoint correctly restricts users to updating only their own account, it does not restrict which fields may be changed. A user who can reach this endpoint can set their role to proxy_admin, gaining full administrative access to LiteLLM including all users, teams, keys, models, and prompt history. Users with the org_admin role have legitimate access to this endpoint and can exploit this vulnerability without chaining any additional flaw.
Mattermost fails to restrict a user with permissions to edit other users and to create personal access tokens from elevating their privileges to system admin
LiteLLM prior to 1.83.14 allows an authenticated internal_user to create API keys with access to routes that their role does not permit. When generating a key, the allowed_routes field is stored without verifying that the specified routes fall within the user's own permissions. A key created with access to admin-only routes can then be used to reach those routes successfully, bypassing the role-based access controls that would otherwise block the request, enabling full privilege escalation from internal_user to proxy_admin.
Vitals ESP developed by Galaxy Software Services has a Incorrect Authorization vulnerability, allowing authenticated remote attackers to perform certain administrative functions, thereby escalating privileges.
Open WebUI is a self-hosted artificial intelligence platform designed to operate entirely offline. Prior to 0.8.12, the /api/v1/utils/code/execute endpoint executes arbitrary Python code via Jupyter for any verified user, even when the admin has set ENABLE_CODE_EXECUTION=false. The feature gate is not enforced on the API endpoint — the configuration says "disabled" but code still executes. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.12.
OpenSearch is an open source distributed and RESTful search engine. OpenSearch uses JWTs to store role claims obtained from the Identity Provider (IdP) when the authentication backend is SAML or OpenID Connect. There is an issue in how those claims are processed from the JWTs where the leading and trailing whitespace is trimmed, allowing users to potentially claim roles they are not assigned to if any role matches the whitespace-stripped version of the roles they are a member of. This issue is only present for authenticated users, and it requires either the existence of roles that match, not considering leading/trailing whitespace, or the ability for users to create said matching roles. In addition, the Identity Provider must allow leading and trailing spaces in role names. OpenSearch 1.0.0-1.3.7 and 2.0.0-2.4.1 are affected. Users are advised to upgrade to OpenSearch 1.3.8 or 2.5.0. There are no known workarounds for this issue.
Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.4.1, aAn authenticated user with only users.edit permission can escalate their own privileges to admin by sending a PATCH request to /api/v1/users/{id} with permissions[admin]=1. The API controller only strips the superuser key from the permissions array, allowing admin and all other permission keys to be set by any user who can update users. This vulnerability is fixed in 8.4.1.
A flaw was found in SSSD version 1.9.0. The SSSD's access-provider logic causes the result of the HBAC rule processing to be ignored in the event that the access-provider is also handling the setup of the user's SELinux user context.
Version 3.3.23 of the Sassy Social Share WordPress plugin is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection via the wp_ajax_heateor_sss_import_config AJAX action due to deserialization of unvalidated user supplied inputs via the import_config function found in the ~/admin/class-sassy-social-share-admin.php file. This can be exploited by underprivileged authenticated users due to a missing capability check on the import_config function.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.15 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in Matrix room control-command authorization that trusts DM pairing-store entries. Attackers with DM-paired sender IDs can execute room control commands without being in configured allowlists by posting in bot rooms, potentially enabling privileged OpenClaw behavior.
A vulnerability has been identified in which Rancher does not automatically clean up a user which has been deleted from the configured authentication provider (AP). This characteristic also applies to disabled or revoked users, Rancher will not reflect these modifications which may leave the user’s tokens still usable.
An issue was discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 16.0 prior to 17.3.7, starting from 17.4 prior to 17.4.4, and starting from 17.5 prior to 17.5.2, which could have allowed unauthorized access to the Kubernetes agent in a cluster under specific configurations.
Improper authentication for some Intel Unison software may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via network access.
Argo CD is a declarative, GitOps continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes. Versions of Argo CD starting with v1.8.2 and prior to 2.3.13, 2.4.19, 2.5.6, and 2.6.0-rc-3 are vulnerable to an improper authorization bug causing the API to accept certain invalid tokens. OIDC providers include an `aud` (audience) claim in signed tokens. The value of that claim specifies the intended audience(s) of the token (i.e. the service or services which are meant to accept the token). Argo CD _does_ validate that the token was signed by Argo CD's configured OIDC provider. But Argo CD _does not_ validate the audience claim, so it will accept tokens that are not intended for Argo CD. If Argo CD's configured OIDC provider also serves other audiences (for example, a file storage service), then Argo CD will accept a token intended for one of those other audiences. Argo CD will grant the user privileges based on the token's `groups` claim, even though those groups were not intended to be used by Argo CD. This bug also increases the impact of a stolen token. If an attacker steals a valid token for a different audience, they can use it to access Argo CD. A patch for this vulnerability has been released in versions 2.6.0-rc3, 2.5.6, 2.4.19, and 2.3.13. There are no workarounds.
AIMANAGER before B115 on MONITORAPP Application Insight Web Application Firewall (AIWAF) devices with Manager 2.1.0 has Improper Authentication. An attacker can gain administrative access by modifying the response to an authentication check request.
An issue was discovered in the FileImporter extension in MediaWiki through 1.36. For certain relaxed configurations of the $wgFileImporterRequiredRight variable, it might not validate all appropriate user rights, thus allowing a user with insufficient rights to perform operations (specifically file uploads) that they should not be allowed to perform.
HashiCorp Terraform Enterprise releases up to v202106-1 did not properly perform authorization checks on a subset of API requests executed using the run token, allowing privilege escalation to organization owner. Fixed in v202107-1.
Hasura GraphQL Engine before 2.15.2 mishandles row-level authorization in the Update Many API for Postgres backends. The fixed versions are 2.10.2, 2.11.3, 2.12.1, 2.13.2, 2.14.1, and 2.15.2. (Versions before 2.10.0 are unaffected.)
An issue was discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 11.6 prior to 17.2.9, starting from 17.3 prior to 17.3.5, and starting from 17.4 prior to 17.4.2, which allows an attacker to trigger a pipeline as another user under certain circumstances.
Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk Services Platform v6.11 and earlier, if FactoryTalk Security is enabled and deployed contains a vulnerability that may allow a remote, authenticated attacker to bypass FactoryTalk Security policies based on the computer name. If successfully exploited, this may allow an attacker to have the same privileges as if they were logged on to the client machine.
Capsule is a multi-tenancy and policy-based framework for Kubernetes. Prior to version 0.1.3, a ServiceAccount deployed in a Tenant Namespace, when granted with `PATCH` capabilities on its own Namespace, is able to edit it and remove the Owner Reference, breaking the reconciliation of the Capsule Operator and removing all the enforcement like Pod Security annotations, Network Policies, Limit Range and Resource Quota items. An attacker could detach the Namespace from a Tenant that is forbidding starting privileged Pods using the Pod Security labels by removing the OwnerReference, removing the enforcement labels, and being able to start privileged containers that would be able to start a generic Kubernetes privilege escalation. Patches have been released for version 0.1.3. No known workarounds are available.
SGUDA U-Lock central lock control service’s lock management function has incorrect authorization. A remote attacker with general privilege can exploit this vulnerability to call privileged APIs to acquire information, manipulate or disrupt the functionality of arbitrary electronic locks.
SGUDA U-Lock central lock control service’s user management function has incorrect authorization. A remote attacker with general user privilege can exploit this vulnerability to call privileged APIs to access, modify and delete user information.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup Flex Scale through 3.0 and Access Appliance through 8.0.100. A default password is persisted after installation and may be discovered and used to escalate privileges.
An issue was discovered in OpenText Content Suite Platform 22.1 (16.2.19.1803). The request handler for ll.KeepAliveSession sets a valid AdminPwd cookie even when the Web Admin password was not entered. This allows access to endpoints, which require a valid AdminPwd cookie, without knowing the password.
XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it. In versions prior to 11.10.13, 12.6.7, and 12.10.2, a user disabled on a wiki using email verification for registration canouldre-activate themself by using the activation link provided for his registration. The problem has been patched in the following versions of XWiki: 11.10.13, 12.6.7, 12.10.2, 13.0. It is possible to workaround the issue by resetting the `validkey` property of the disabled XWiki users. This can be done by editing the user profile with object editor.
Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. A vulnerability related to firewall authentication is in Symfony starting with version 5.3.0 and prior to 5.3.2. When an application defines multiple firewalls, the token authenticated by one of the firewalls was available for all other firewalls. This could be abused when the application defines different providers for each part of the application, in such a situation, a user authenticated on a part of the application could be considered authenticated on the rest of the application. Starting in version 5.3.2, a patch ensures that the authenticated token is only available for the firewall that generates it.
Once an user is authenticated on Jolokia, he can potentially trigger arbitrary code execution. In details, in ActiveMQ configurations, jetty allows org.jolokia.http.AgentServlet to handler request to /api/jolokia org.jolokia.http.HttpRequestHandler#handlePostRequest is able to create JmxRequest through JSONObject. And calls to org.jolokia.http.HttpRequestHandler#executeRequest. Into deeper calling stacks, org.jolokia.handler.ExecHandler#doHandleRequest can be invoked through refection. This could lead to RCE through via various mbeans. One example is unrestricted deserialization in jdk.management.jfr.FlightRecorderMXBeanImpl which exists on Java version above 11. 1 Call newRecording. 2 Call setConfiguration. And a webshell data hides in it. 3 Call startRecording. 4 Call copyTo method. The webshell will be written to a .jsp file. The mitigation is to restrict (by default) the actions authorized on Jolokia, or disable Jolokia. A more restrictive Jolokia configuration has been defined in default ActiveMQ distribution. We encourage users to upgrade to ActiveMQ distributions version including updated Jolokia configuration: 5.16.6, 5.17.4, 5.18.0, 6.0.0.
Incorrect Privilege Assignment vulnerability in Hitachi Storage Plug-in for VMware vCenter allows remote authenticated users to cause privilege escalation. This issue affects Hitachi Storage Plug-in for VMware vCenter: from 04.9.0 before 04.9.1.
Improper authentication vulnerability in UDR-JA1604/UDR-JA1608/UDR-JA1616 firmware versions 71x10.1.107112.43A and earlier allows a remote authenticated attacker to execute an arbitrary OS command on the device or alter the device settings.
Improper authentication in the Intel(R) DCM software before version 5.1 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via network access.
Incorrect User Management vulnerability in Naukowa i Akademicka Sieć Komputerowa - Państwowy Instytut Badawczy EZD RP allows logged-in user to change the password of any user, including root user, which could lead to privilege escalation. This issue affects EZD RP: from 15 before 15.84, from 16 before 16.15, from 17 before 17.2.
Arvados is an open source platform for managing and analyzing biomedical big data. In versions prior to 2.4.3, when using Portable Authentication Modules (PAM) for user authentication, if a user presented valid credentials but the account is disabled or otherwise not allowed to access the host (such as an expired password), it would still be accepted for access to Arvados. Other authentication methods (LDAP, OpenID Connect) supported by Arvados are not affected by this flaw. This issue is patched in version 2.4.3. Workaround for this issue is to migrate to a different authentication method supported by Arvados, such as LDAP.
Incorrect Authorization vulnerability identified in OpenText ArcSight Intelligence.
An issue was discovered in Aviatrix Gateway before 6.6.5712 and 6.7.x before 6.7.1376. Because Gateway API functions mishandle authentication, an authenticated VPN user can inject arbitrary commands.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains a role bypass vulnerability in the device.token.rotate function that allows minting tokens for unapproved roles. Attackers can bypass device role-upgrade pairing to preserve or mint roles and scopes that had not undergone intended approval.
SolarWinds Platform was susceptible to Improper Input Validation. This vulnerability allows a remote adversary with valid access to SolarWinds Web Console to escalate user privileges.
OpenClaw versions 2026.4.5 before 2026.4.10 contain a sandbox escape vulnerability allowing sandboxed agents to override exec routing by specifying host=node. Attackers can bypass sandbox boundaries and route execution to remote nodes instead of intended sandbox paths.
An access control issue in ZKTeco ZKBioSecurity V5000 3.0.5_r allows attackers to arbitrarily create admin users via a crafted HTTP request.
macrozheng mall-tiny 1.0.1 is vulnerable to Incorrect Access Control. The project imports users by default, and the test user is made a super administrator.
OpenClaw versions 2026.2.23 before 2026.4.12 contain a weakened exec approval binding vulnerability in busybox and toybox applet execution that allows attackers to obscure which applet would actually run. Attackers can exploit opaque multi-call binaries to bypass exec approval mechanisms and weaken risk classification of unsafe applet invocations.
Grav API Plugin is a RESTful API for Grav CMS that provides full headless access to your site's content, media, configuration, users, and system management. Prior to 1.0.0-beta.15, an insecure direct object reference and logic flaw in the Grav API plugin (UsersController::update) allows any authenticated user with basic API access (api.access) to modify their own permission configuration. An attacker can exploit this to escalate their privileges to Super Administrator (admin.super and api.super), leading to full system compromise and potential RCE. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.0.0-beta.15.
ZITADEL combines the ease of Auth0 and the versatility of Keycloak.**Actions**, introduced in ZITADEL **1.42.0** on the API and **1.56.0** for Console, is a feature, where users with role.`ORG_OWNER` are able to create Javascript Code, which is invoked by the system at certain points during the login. **Actions**, for example, allow creating authorizations (user grants) on newly created users programmatically. Due to a missing authorization check, **Actions** were able to grant authorizations for projects that belong to other organizations inside the same Instance. Granting authorizations via API and Console is not affected by this vulnerability. There is currently no known workaround, users should update.
The product performs an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action, but it does not correctly perform the check. This allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. (CWE-863) Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 10.2.0.0 and 9.3.0.9, including 8.3.x, have modules enabled by default that allow execution of system level processes. When access control checks are incorrectly applied, users can access data or perform actions that they should not be allowed to perform. This can lead to a wide range of problems, including information exposures and denial of service.
