The configuration of Nozbe on macOS, specifically the "RunAsNode" fuse enabled, allows a local attacker with unprivileged access to execute arbitrary code that inherits Nozbe TCC (Transparency, Consent, and Control) permissions.  Acquired resource access is limited to previously granted permissions by the user. Access to other resources beyond granted-permissions requires user interaction with a system prompt asking for permission. This issue was fixed in version 2025.11 of Nozbe.

The configuration of Mosh-Pro on macOS, specifically the "RunAsNode" fuse enabled, allows a local attacker with unprivileged access to execute arbitrary code that inherits Mosh-Pro TCC (Transparency, Consent, and Control) permissions.  Acquired resource access is limited to previously granted permissions by the user. Accessing other resources beyond previously granted TCC permissions will prompt the user for approval in the name of Mosh-Pro, potentially disguising attacker's malicious intent.  This issue was detected in 1.3.2 version of Mosh-Pro. Since authors did not respond to messages from CNA, patching status is unknown.

An improper permission vulnerability was reported in Lenovo PC Manager that could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges.

Incorrect default permissions for some AI Playground software before version v2.3.0 alpha may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

Incorrect default permissions for some Intel(R) Distribution for Python software installers before version 2025.1.0 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

Incorrect default permissions for some Intel(R) oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler software installers may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

Incorrect default permissions for some Intel(R) Graphics Driver software installers may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

MacOS version of GIMP bundles a Python interpreter that inherits the Transparency, Consent, and Control (TCC) permissions granted by the user to the main application bundle. An attacker with local user access can invoke this interpreter with arbitrary commands or scripts, leveraging the application's previously granted TCC permissions to access user's files in privacy-protected folders without triggering user prompts. Accessing other resources beyond previously granted TCC permissions will prompt the user for approval in the name of GIMP, potentially disguising attacker's malicious intent. This issue has been fixed in 3.1.4.2 version of GIMP.

Early versions of Operator-SDK provided an insecure method to allow operator containers to run in environments that used a random UID. Operator-SDK before 0.15.2 provided a script, user_setup, which modifies the permissions of the /etc/passwd file to 664 during build time. Developers who used Operator-SDK before 0.15.2 to scaffold their operator may still be impacted by this if the insecure user_setup script is still being used to build new container images. In affected images, the /etc/passwd file is created during build time with group-writable permissions and a group ownership of root (gid=0). An attacker who can execute commands within an affected container, even as a non-root user, may be able to leverage their membership in the root group to modify the /etc/passwd file. This could allow the attacker to add a new user with any arbitrary UID, including UID 0, leading to full root privileges within the container.

4C Strategies Exonaut before v22.4 was discovered to contain insecure permissions.

CODESYS Runtime Toolkit-based products may expose sensitive files to local low-privileged operating system users due to default file permissions.

Certain Draytek products are affected by Insecure Configuration. This affects AP903 v1.4.18 and AP912C v1.4.9 and AP918R v1.4.9. The setting of the password property in the ripd.conf configuration file sets a hardcoded weak password, posing a security risk. An attacker with network access could exploit this to gain unauthorized control over the routing daemon, potentially altering network routes or intercepting traffic.

Insecure permissions in the script /etc/init.d/lighttpd in AK-Nord USB-Server-LXL Firmware v0.0.16 Build 2023-03-13 allows a locally authenticated low-privilege user to execute arbitrary commands with root privilege via editing this script which is executed with root-privileges on any interaction and on every system boot.

CVE-2025-49082 is a vulnerability in the management console of Absolute Secure Access prior to version 13.56. Attackers with administrative access to the console and who have been assigned a certain set of permissions can bypass those permissions to improperly read other settings. The attack complexity is low, there are no preexisting attack requirements; the privileges required are high, and there is no user interaction required. The impact to system confidentiality is low, there is no impact to system availability or integrity.

In JetBrains TeamCity before 2025.07 privilege escalation was possible due to incorrect directory permissions

Unitree Go1 <= Go1_2022_05_11 is vulnerable to Insecure Permissions as the firmware update functionality (via Wi-Fi/Ethernet) implements an insecure verification mechanism that solely relies on MD5 checksums for firmware integrity validation.

During the AWS Client VPN client installation on Windows devices, the install process references the C:\usr\local\windows-x86_64-openssl-localbuild\ssl directory location to fetch the OpenSSL configuration file. As a result, a non-admin user could place arbitrary code in the configuration file. If an admin user starts the AWS Client VPN client installation process, that code could be executed with root-level privileges. This issue does not affect Linux or Mac devices. We recommend users discontinue any new installations of AWS Client VPN on Windows prior to version 5.2.2.

The `username:password` part was not correctly stripped from URLs in CSP reports potentially leaking HTTP Basic Authentication credentials. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 141, Firefox ESR < 128.13, Firefox ESR < 140.1, Thunderbird < 141, Thunderbird < 128.13, and Thunderbird < 140.1.

melange allows users to build apk packages using declarative pipelines. Starting in version 0.23.0 and prior to version 0.29.5, SBOM files generated by melange in apks had file system permissions mode 666. This potentially allows an unprivileged user to tamper with apk SBOMs on a running image, potentially confusing security scanners. An attacker could also perform a DoS under special circumstances. Version 0.29.5 fixes the issue.

apko allows users to build and publish OCI container images built from apk packages. Starting in version 0.27.0 and prior to version 0.29.5, critical files were inadvertently set to 0666, which could likely be abused for root escalation. Version 0.29.5 contains a fix for the issue.

An incorrect permissions vulnerability was reported in Elliptic Labs Virtual Lock Sensor that could allow a local, authenticated user to escalate privileges.

A vulnerability related to registry permissions in the Intercept X for Windows updater prior to Core Agent version 2024.3.2 can lead to a local user gaining SYSTEM level privileges during a product upgrade.

Neither filed by Chrome nor a valid security vulnerability.

Several services in Honor Device Co., Ltd Honor PC Manager v16.0.0.118 was discovered to connect services to the named pipe iMateBookAssistant with default or overly permissive security attributes, leading to a privilege escalation.

The Nix, Lix, and Guix package managers default to using temporary build directories in a world-readable and world-writable location. This allows standard users to deceive the package manager into using directories with pre-existing content, potentially leading to unauthorized actions or data manipulation. This affects Nix before 2.24.15, 2.26.4, 2.28.4, and 2.29.1; Lix before 2.91.2, 2.92.2, and 2.93.1; and Guix before 1.4.0-38.0e79d5b.

pdns specific as packaged in Debian in version before 3.3.1-1 creates a too privileged MySQL user. It was discovered that the maintainer scripts of pdns-backend-mysql grant too wide database permissions for the pdns user. Other backends are not affected.

File Browser provides a file managing interface within a specified directory and it can be used to upload, delete, preview, rename and edit files. The file access permissions for files uploaded to or created from File Browser are never explicitly set by the application. The same is true for the database used by File Browser. On standard servers using File Browser prior to version 2.33.7 where the umask configuration has not been hardened before, this makes all the stated files readable by any operating system account. Version 2.33.7 fixes the issue.

A vulnerability exists in MicroSCADA X SYS600 product. If exploited this could allow a local unauthenticated attacker to tamper a system file, making denial of Notify service.

Notepad++ is a free and open-source source code editor. In versions 8.8.1 and prior, a privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Notepad++ v8.8.1 installer that allows unprivileged users to gain SYSTEM-level privileges through insecure executable search paths. An attacker could use social engineering or clickjacking to trick users into downloading both the legitimate installer and a malicious executable to the same directory (typically Downloads folder - which is known as Vulnerable directory). Upon running the installer, the attack executes automatically with SYSTEM privileges. This issue has been fixed and will be released in version 8.8.2.

The Postbox's configuration on macOS, specifically the presence of entitlements: "com.apple.security.cs.allow-dyld-environment-variables" and "com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation" allows for Dynamic Library (Dylib) injection. A local attacker with unprivileged access can use environment variables like DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES to successfully inject code in application's context and bypass Transparency, Consent, and Control (TCC). Acquired resource access is limited to previously granted permissions by the user. Access to other resources beyond granted-permissions requires user interaction with a system prompt asking for permission. The original company behind Postbox is no longer operational, the software will no longer receive updates. The acquiring company (em Client) did not cooperate in vulnerability disclosure.

The Phoenix Code's configuration on macOS, specifically the presence of entitlements: "com.apple.security.cs.allow-dyld-environment-variables" and "com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation" allows for Dynamic Library (Dylib) injection. A local attacker with unprivileged access can use environment variables like DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES to successfully inject code in application's context and bypass Transparency, Consent, and Control (TCC). Acquired resource access is limited to previously granted permissions by the user. Access to other resources beyond granted-permissions requires user interaction with a system prompt asking for permission. This issue was fixed in commit 0c75fb57f89d0b7d9b180026bc2624b7dcf807da

Velociraptor allows collection of VQL queries packaged into Artifacts from endpoints. These artifacts can be used to do anything and usually run with elevated permissions.  To limit access to some dangerous artifact, Velociraptor allows for those to require high permissions like EXECVE to launch. The Admin.Client.UpdateClientConfig is an artifact used to update the client's configuration. This artifact did not enforce an additional required permission, allowing users with COLLECT_CLIENT permissions (normally given by the "Investigator" role) to collect it from endpoints and update the configuration. This can lead to arbitrary command execution and endpoint takeover. To successfully exploit this vulnerability the user must already have access to collect artifacts from the endpoint (i.e. have the COLLECT_CLIENT given typically by the "Investigator' role).

conda-smithy is a tool for combining a conda recipe with configurations to build using freely hosted CI services into a single repository. Prior to version 3.47.1, the travis_headers function in the conda-smithy repository creates files with permissions exceeding 0o600, allowing read and write access beyond the intended user/owner. This violates the principle of least privilege, which mandates restricting file permissions to the minimum necessary. An attacker could exploit this to access configuration files in shared hosting environments. This issue has been patched in version 3.47.1.

conda-forge-webservices is the web app deployed to run conda-forge admin commands and linting. Prior to version 2025.3.24, the conda_forge_webservice Docker container executes commands without specifying a user. By default, Docker containers run as the root user, which increases the risk of privilege escalation and host compromise if a vulnerability is exploited. This issue has been patched in version 2025.3.24.

Permissions Bypass in Extension Management in Google ChromeOS 16181.27.0 on managed Chrome devices allows a local attacker to disable extensions and access Developer Mode, including loading additional extensions via exploiting vulnerabilities using the ExtHang3r and ExtPrint3r tools.

In Tenable Agent versions prior to 10.8.5 on a Windows host, it was found that a non-administrative user could execute code with SYSTEM privilege.

An incorrect default permissions vulnerability was reported in the MotoSignature application that could result in unauthorized access.

A vulnerability has been identified in Energy Services (All versions with G5DFR). Affected solutions using G5DFR contain default credentials. This could allow an attacker to gain control of G5DFR component and tamper with outputs from the device.

Wasp (Web Application Specification) is a Rails-like framework for React, Node.js, and Prisma. Prior to version 0.16.6, Wasp authentication has a vulnerability in the OAuth authentication implementation (affecting only Keycloak with a specific config). Wasp currently lowercases OAuth user IDs before storing / fetching them. This behavior violates OAuth and OpenID Connect specifications and can result in user impersonation, account collisions, and privilege escalation. In practice, out of the OAuth providers that Wasp auth supports, only Keycloak is affected. Keycloak uses a lowercase UUID by default, but users can configure it to be case sensitive, making it affected. Google, GitHub, and Discord use numerical IDs, making them not affected. Users should update their Wasp version to `0.16.6` which has a fix for the problematic behavior. Users using Keycloak can work around the issue by not using a case sensitive user ID in their realm configuration.

Local privilege escalation due to insecure file permissions. The following products are affected: Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud Agent (Windows) before build 40077.

Incorrect default permission in Samsung Cloud for Galaxy Watch prior to SMR Jun-2025 Release 1 allows local attackers to access data in Samsung Cloud for Galaxy Watch.

MaxKB is an open-source AI assistant for enterprise. Prior to version 1.10.8-lts, Sandbox only restricts the execution permissions of binary files in common directories, such as `/bin,/usr/bin`, etc. Therefore, attackers can exploit some files with execution permissions in non blacklisted directories to carry out attacks. Version 1.10.8-lts fixes the issue.

Incorrect default permissions issue in PC Time Tracer prior to 5.2. If exploited, arbitrary code may be executed with SYSTEM privilege on Windows system where the product is running by a local authenticated attacker.

An issue was discovered in Samsung Mobile Processor Exynos 2200, 1480, and 2400. A Use-After-Free in the mobile processor leads to privilege escalation.

An improper default permissions vulnerability was reported in Lenovo PC Manager that could allow a local attacker to elevate privileges.

A permissions issue was addressed with additional sandbox restrictions. This issue is fixed in macOS Ventura 13.7.5, macOS Sequoia 15.4, macOS Sonoma 14.7.5. An app may be able to access protected user data.
