A vulnerability has been identified in Altair Grid Engine (All versions < V2026.0.0). Affected products do not properly validate environment variables when loading shared libraries, allowing path hijacking through malicious library substitution. This could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code with superuser privileges by manipulating the environment variable and placing a malicious library in the controlled path.

A local user with low privileges may be able to influence the behavior of a privileged system service by manipulating configuration or application-related files located in user-writable areas of the filesystem. The affected service processes data from locations that are not sufficiently protected against modification by low-privileged users. As the service runs with elevated privileges, successful exploitation may result in a local privilege escalation.

Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) and Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition (SEP SBE), prior to 14.2 RU2 MP1 and prior to 14.2.5569.2100 respectively, may be susceptible to a DLL injection vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an individual attempts to execute their own code in place of legitimate code as a means to perform an exploit.

A vulnerability in the Tail-f High Availability Cluster Communications (HCC) function pack of Cisco Crosswork Network Services Orchestrator (NSO) could allow an authenticated, local attacker to elevate privileges to root on an affected device. This vulnerability exists because a user-controlled search path is used to locate executable files. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by configuring the application in a way that causes a malicious file to be executed. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on an affected device as the root user. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker would need valid credentials on an affected device.
