A local privilege escalation vulnerability exists in O+ Connect because it fails to validate the identity of the caller on the pipe interface.

Mullvad VPN is a VPN client app for desktop and mobile. When using macOS with versions 2026.1 and below, Mullvad VPN may allow local privilege escalation during installation or upgrade. The installer package executes binaries from /Applications/Mullvad VPN.app without verifying if the bundle is attacker-controlled or that the path is the legitimate Mullvad application. A user in the admin group can pre-place a crafted application bundle at that location and may be able to achieve code execution as root. Since the issue only affected the installer, there is no immediate need for users to update if they are already running an older version. This issue has been fixed in version 2026.2-beta1.

Thermo Fisher Scientific Torrent Suite Dx through 5.14.2 has a privilege escalation vulnerability that may allow an authenticated user with limited access privileges to gain unauthorized administrator-level privileges through exploitation of specific system interfaces.

A weakness has been identified in h2oai h2o-3 up to 7402.

Performing a manipulation results in improper authorization. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. The patch is named 5746b8576cfceec18ed87eb7d8cf11b1fb4cd8b1. It is suggested to install a patch to address this issue.

The AI Engine – The Chatbot, AI Framework & MCP for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in version 3.4.9. This is due to missing WordPress capability enforcement in the MCP OAuth bearer-token authorization path, where any valid OAuth token causes MCP access to be granted without verifying administrator privileges. This makes it possible for authenticated (Subscriber+) attackers to invoke admin-level MCP tools and escalate privileges to Administrator.

Open WebUI is a self-hosted artificial intelligence platform designed to operate entirely offline. Prior to 0.9.5, the tool update endpoint (POST /api/v1/tools/id/{id}/update) is missing the workspace.tools permission check that is present on the tool create endpoint. This allows a user who has been explicitly denied tool management capabilities ( and who the administrator considers untrusted for code execution ) to replace a tool's server-side Python content and trigger execution, bypassing the intended workspace.tools security boundary. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.9.5.

Open WebUI is a self-hosted artificial intelligence platform designed to operate entirely offline. Prior to 0.9.0, he LDAP and OAuth authentication flows use a TOCTOU (Time-of-Check-Time-of-Use) pattern for first-user admin role assignment. The regular signup handler (signup_handler in auths.py, line 663) was explicitly patched to prevent this race with the comment "Insert with default role first to avoid TOCTOU race", but the LDAP and OAuth code paths were never updated with the same fix. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.9.0.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ptrace: slightly saner 'get_dumpable()' logic The 'dumpability' of a task is fundamentally about the memory image of the task - the concept comes from whether it can core dump or not - and makes no sense when you don't have an associated mm. And almost all users do in fact use it only for the case where the task has a mm pointer. But we have one odd special case: ptrace_may_access() uses 'dumpable' to check various other things entirely independently of the MM (typically explicitly using flags like PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCREDS). Including for threads that no longer have a VM (and maybe never did, like most kernel threads). It's not what this flag was designed for, but it is what it is. The ptrace code does check that the uid/gid matches, so you do have to be uid-0 to see kernel thread details, but this means that the traditional "drop capabilities" model doesn't make any difference for this all. Make it all make a *bit* more sense by saying that if you don't have a MM pointer, we'll use a cached "last dumpability" flag if the thread ever had a MM (it will be zero for kernel threads since it is never set), and require a proper CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability to override.

The Frontend Admin by DynamiApps plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in versions up to and including 3.28.36. This is due to insufficient authorization checks in the role field update mechanism combined with overly permissive capabilities for the admin_form post type. The admin_form custom post type uses 'capability_type' => 'page', which grants editors the ability to create and edit forms. When an editor creates an edit_user form, they can manipulate the form configuration to include 'administrator' in the role_options array by directly submitting POST data to wp-admin/post.php, bypassing the UI restrictions in feadmin_get_user_roles(). When the form is subsequently submitted, the pre_update_value() function in class-role.php only validates that the submitted role exists in the form's role_options array (lines 107-110), but fails to verify that the current user has permission to assign that specific role. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to first register as editors (via a public new_user form), then create an edit_user form with administrator in the allowed roles, and finally use that form to escalate their own privileges to administrator.

Improper handling of insufficient privileges in the AMD Secure Processor (ASP) could allow an attacker to provide an input value to a function without sufficient privileges and successfully write data, potentially resulting in loss of integrity of availability.

Improper privilege management in the KVM key download component could allow an attacker to swap tokens and download sensitive keys, potentially resulting in unauthorized access to privileged resources and loss of confidentiality.

Comarch ERP Optima client connects to a database using a high privileged account regardless of an application account to which a user logs in. It is possible for a local attacker who controls the client process to dump it's memory, extract credentials and use them to gain a privileged access to the database. In order to exploit this vulnerability, the client application has to be already configured, but a user does not have to be logged in.  This issue has been fixed in version 2026.4

The Essential Addons for Elementor – Popular Elementor Templates & Widgets plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 6.5.13. This is due to insufficient role validation in the 'register_user' function, which only blocks the 'administrator' role. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author level access and above, to create new user accounts with elevated privileges such as editor.

Incorrect privileges management and insufficient path filtering allow to read arbitrary file on the server via the cpdavd attachment download endpoints.

The Claude Desktop app gives you Claude Code with a graphical interface built for running multiple sessions side by side. Prior to 1.3834.0, the CoworkVMService component in Claude Desktop for Windows ran as SYSTEM and did not validate whether the VM bundle directory was a real directory or an NTFS directory junction before creating files within it. A local non-elevated user could replace the user-writable VM bundle directory with a directory junction pointing to an attacker-chosen location, causing the service to create a SYSTEM-owned file in an arbitrary directory. This could be leveraged for local privilege escalation. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.3834.0.

A vulnerability exists in BIG-IP and BIG-IQ systems where a highly privileged, authenticated attacker with at least the Certificate Manager role can modify configuration objects that allow running arbitrary commands.     Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

A vulnerability exists in BIG-IP scripted monitors that may allow an authenticated attacker with the Resource Administrator or Administrator role to execute arbitrary system commands with higher privileges. In appliance mode deployments, a successful exploit can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

A vulnerability exists in iControl REST and the TMOS Shell (tmsh) where a highly privileged, authenticated attacker with at least the Manager role can create configuration objects that allow running arbitrary commands.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

An authenticated iControl SOAP user may be able to obtain information of other accounts.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

The new upstream added a privileged D-Bus helper called plasmaloginauthhelper, which suffers from multiple issues, e.g.aA compromised plasmalogin service account can chown() arbitrary files in the system.

ChurchCRM is an open-source church management system. Prior to 7.3.2, UserEditor.php processes user account creation and permission updates entirely through $_POST parameters with no CSRF token validation. An unauthenticated attacker can craft a malicious HTML page that, when visited by an authenticated administrator, silently elevates any low-privilege user to full administrator or creates a new admin backdoor account without the victim's knowledge This vulnerability is fixed in 7.3.2.

Grav is a file-based Web platform. In Grav 2.0.0-beta.2, a low-privileged authenticated API user with api.media.write can abuse /api/v1/blueprint-upload to write an arbitrary YAML file into user/accounts/, then log in as the newly created account with api.super privileges. This results in full administrative compromise of the Grav API. This vulnerability is fixed in API 1.0.0-beta.17.

Wiki.js is an open source wiki app built on Node.js. Prior to 2.5.313, the users.update GraphQL mutation accepts an arbitrary groups array and applies it directly to the database with no validation of the group IDs supplied. The resolver passes the caller's arguments straight to the model without any ownership check or restriction on which groups can be assigned. A user with manage:users — a permission typically delegated to wiki moderators for account management — can set groups:[1] on their own account to self-assign to the Administrators group. After re-authentication, the fresh JWT carries manage:system, granting full site administrator access in a single mutation call. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.5.313.

ciguard is a static security auditor for CI/CD pipelines. From 0.1.0 to 0.8.1, the published ghcr.io/jo-jo98/ciguard container image inherits the default root user because the Dockerfile lacks a USER directive. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.2.

Improper privilege management in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Insights allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.

Execution with unnecessary privileges in Microsoft Dynamics 365 (on-premises) allows an authorized attacker to execute code over a network.

Dell PowerScale InsightIQ, versions 5.0.0 through 6.2.0, contains an execution with unnecessary privileges vulnerability. A high privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to elevation of privileges.

Outline is a service that allows for collaborative documentation. From 0.84.0 to 1.6.1, a logic error in OAuthInterface.validateScope() uses Array.some() to validate requested OAuth scopes, causing the function to accept the entire scope array if any single scope is valid. An attacker can smuggle the wildcard * scope by requesting scope=read *, escalating a read-only OAuth token to full unrestricted API access including write, delete, and admin operations. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.7.0.

Pi-hole is a DNS sinkhole that protects devices from unwanted content without installing any client-side software. From 6.0 to before Core 6.4.2 and FTL 6.6.1, two shell scripts executed as root by systemd (pihole-FTL-prestart.sh and pihole-FTL-poststop.sh) read the files.pid path from this config without validation and use it in privileged file operations (install and rm -f). By writing an arbitrary path into files.pid, an attacker with pihole privilege can cause root to delete and then recreate any file on the system outside the ProtectSystem=full-restricted directories, gaining write access to it. On a default Pi-hole installation this yields local privilege escalation to root via SSH authorized keys manipulation. If /root/.ssh/authorized_keys does not exist (default on fresh installs), only ExecStartPre is required. If the file exists, ExecStopPost deletes it first, and the same restart triggers both hooks in sequence. This vulnerability is fixed in Core 6.4.2 and FTL 6.6.1.

An information leakage was addressed with additional validation. This issue is fixed in macOS Tahoe 26.5. An app may be able to gain root privileges.

OpenClaw before 2026.4.22 contains a security envelope constraint bypass vulnerability allowing restricted subagents to spawn ACP child sessions that fail to inherit depth, child-count limits, control scope, or target-agent restrictions. Attackers can exploit this by spawning child sessions that bypass subagent-only constraints, potentially escalating privileges or accessing restricted resources.

Grav is a file-based Web platform. Prior to 2.0.0-beta.2, a business logic vulnerability in the Grav Admin Panel allows a low-privileged user (with only user creation permissions) to overwrite existing accounts, including the primary administrator. By creating a new user with a username that already exists, the system updates the existing account's metadata and permissions instead of rejecting the request. This leads to a Denial of Service (DoS) on administrative functions and Privilege De-escalation of the root account. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.0.0-beta.2.

Dell ECS versions 3.8.1.0 through 3.8.1.7 and Dell ObjectScale versions prior to 4.3.0.0, contains an improper privilege management vulnerability in the OS. A high privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to elevation of privileges.

A vulnerability has been found in Industrial Application Software IAS Canias ERP 8.03. The affected element is the function iasGetServerInfoEvent of the component RMI Interface. Such manipulation leads to improper authorization. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

A vulnerability was determined in Dotouch XproUPF 2.0.0-release-088aa7c4. Affected is an unknown function of the component UPF. This manipulation causes improper access controls. A high degree of complexity is needed for the attack. The exploitability is told to be difficult. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure.

Plainpad is a self hosted note taking app. Prior to version 1.1.1, Plainpad allows a low-privilege authenticated user to self-escalate to administrator by submitting admin=true in PUT /api.php/v1/users/{id}. The endpoint directly persists the admin attribute from user input, and the escalated account can immediately access admin-only routes. This issue has been patched in version 1.1.1.

bubblewrap is a low-level unprivileged sandboxing tool. From version 0.11.0 to before version 0.11.2, if bubblewrap is installed in setuid mode then the user can use ptrace to attach to bubblewrap and control the unprivileged part of the sandbox setup phase. This allows the attacker to arbitrarily use the privileged operations, and in particular the "overlay mount" operation, allowing the creation of overlay mounts which is otherwise not allowed in the setuid version of bubblewrap. This issue has been patched in version 0.11.2.

SysReptor is a fully customizable pentest reporting platform. Prior to version 2026.29, users with "User Admin" permissions can change the email addresses of users with "Superuser" permissions. If the SysReptor installation has the "Forgot Password" functionality enabled (non-default), they can reset the Superusers' passwords and authenticate, if the Superuser has no MFA enabled. User managers can then access the Django backend (/admin) or manipulate the settings of the SysReptor installation. Note that user managers have the ability to access all pentest projects by assigning themselves "Project Admin" permissions. This is intentional and by design. This issue has been patched in version 2026.29.
