Privilege escalation in uberAgent
Pearcleaner is a free, source-available and fair-code licensed mac app cleaner. The PearcleanerHelper is a privileged helper tool bundled with the Pearcleaner application. It is registered and activated only after the user approves a system prompt to allow privileged operations. Upon approval, the helper is configured as a LaunchDaemon and runs with root privileges. In versions 4.4.0 through 4.5.1, the helper registers an XPC service (com.alienator88.Pearcleaner.PearcleanerHelper) and accepts unauthenticated connections from any local process. It exposes a method that executes arbitrary shell commands. This allows any local unprivileged user to escalate privileges to root once the helper is approved and active. This issue is fixed in version 4.5.2.
A DLL hijacking vulnerability in the AMD Ryzen™ Master Utility could allow an attacker to achieve privilege escalation, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.

This Medium severity ACE (Arbitrary Code Execution) vulnerability was introduced in version 4.2.8 of Sourcetree for Mac. This ACE (Arbitrary Code Execution) vulnerability, with a CVSS Score of 5.9, allows a locally authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code which has high impact to confidentiality, high impact to integrity, high impact to availability, and requires user interaction. Atlassian recommends that Sourcetree for Mac users upgrade to the latest version. If you are unable to do so, upgrade your instance to one of the specified supported fixed versions. See the release notes https://www.sourcetreeapp.com/download-archives . You can download the latest version of Sourcetree for Mac from the download center https://www.sourcetreeapp.com/download-archives . This vulnerability was found through the Atlassian Bug Bounty Program by Karol Mazurek (AFINE).

Windows LUAFV Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
autojump before 21.5.8 allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse custom_install directory in the current working directory.
A vulnerability in the Trend Micro Apex One Security Agent Plug-in User Interface Manager could allow a local attacker to bypass existing security and execute arbitrary code on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
An attacker can pre-create the `/Applications/Google\ Drive.app/Contents/MacOS` directory which is expected to be owned by root to be owned by a non-root user. When the Drive for Desktop installer is run for the first time, it will place a binary in that directory with execute permissions and set its setuid bit. Since the attacker owns the directory, the attacker can replace the binary with a symlink, causing the installer to set the setuid bit on the symlink. When the symlink is executed, it will run with root permissions. We recommend upgrading past version 64.0
Dell Display Manager application, version 2.1.1.17, contains a vulnerability that low privilege user can execute malicious code during installation and uninstallation
A vulnerability has been identified in Siemens License Server (SLS) (All versions < V4.3). The affected application searches for executable files in the application folder without proper validation. This could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code with administrative privileges by placing a malicious executable in the same directory.
A vulnerability in the CLI of Cisco SD-WAN vManage Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system as the root user. The attacker must be authenticated on the affected system as a low-privileged user to exploit this vulnerability. This vulnerability exists because a file leveraged by a root user is executed when a low-privileged user runs specific commands on an affected system. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by injecting arbitrary commands to a specific file as a lower-privileged user and then waiting until an admin user executes specific commands. The commands would then be executed on the device by the root user. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to escalate their privileges on the affected system from a low-privileged user to the root user.
A local privilege escalation vulnerability caused by incorrect permission assignment in some directories of the Zyxel AP Configurator (ZAC) version 1.1.4, which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code as a local administrator.
A vulnerability has been identified in SINEC NMS (All versions >= V1.0.3 < V2.0), SINEC NMS (All versions < V1.0.3), SINEMA Server V14 (All versions). The affected software do not properly check privileges between users during the same web browser session, creating an unintended sphere of control. This could allow an authenticated low privileged user to achieve privilege escalation.
Improper privilege management in the installer for some Zoom Workplace Apps and SDKs for Windows may allow an authenticated user to conduct a privilege escalation via local access.
The GLPI Agent is a generic management agent. Prior to version 1.7.2, a local user can modify GLPI-Agent code or used DLLs to modify agent logic and even gain higher privileges. Users should upgrade to GLPI-Agent 1.7.2 to receive a patch. As a workaround, use the default installation folder which involves installed folder is automatically secured by the system.
An improper privilege management vulnerabitlity exists in ALEOS before 4.11.0, 4.9.4 and 4.4.9. An authenticated user can escalate to root via the command shell.
A vulnerability within the malware removal functionality of Avast and AVG Antivirus allowed an attacker with write access to the filesystem, to escalate his privileges in certain scenarios. The issue was fixed with Avast and AVG Antivirus version 22.10.

Windows Hyper-V Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
A privilege escalation vulnerability was reported in LenovoBatteryGaugePackage for Lenovo System Interface Foundation bundled in Lenovo Vantage prior to version 10.2003.10.0 that could allow an authenticated user to execute code with elevated privileges.
Support App is an opensource application specialized in managing Apple devices. It's possible to abuse a vulnerability inside the postinstall installer script to make the installer execute arbitrary code as root. The cause of the vulnerability is the fact that the shebang `#!/bin/zsh` is being used. When the installer is executed it asks for the users password to be executed as root. However, it'll still be using the $HOME of the user and therefore loading the file `$HOME/.zshenv` when the `postinstall` script is executed. An attacker could add malicious code to `$HOME/.zshenv` and it will be executed when the app is installed. An attacker may leverage this vulnerability to escalate privilege on the system. This issue has been addressed in version 2.5.1 Rev 2. All users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
