CVSS v3.1 |
| A
CWE-269: Improper Privilege Management vulnerability exists that could cause privilege escalation when the
server is accessed by a privileged account via a console and through exploitation of a setup script. |
| A Broken Access Control vulnerability in StrangeBee TheHive 5.2.0 before 5.2.16, 5.3.0 before 5.3.11, and 5.4.0 before 5.4.10 allows remote, authenticated, and unprivileged users to retrieve alerts, cases, logs, observables, or tasks, regardless of the user's permissions, through a specific API endpoint. |
| An issue was discovered in CyberDAVA before 1.1.20. A privilege escalation vulnerability allows a low-privileged user to escalate their privilege by abusing the following API due to the lack of access control: /api/v2/users/user/<user id>/role/ROLE/<Target role> (admin access can be achieved). |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in WebWizards SalesKing allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects SalesKing: from n/a through 1.6.15. |
| 266 vulnerability in Crestron Automate VX allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects Automate VX: from 5.6.8161.21536 through 6.4.0.49. |
| Insecure permissions in fail2ban-client v0.11.2 allows attackers with limited sudo privileges to perform arbitrary operations as root. NOTE: this is disputed by multiple parties because the action for a triggered rule can legitimately be an arbitrary operation as root. Thus, the software is behaving in accordance with its intended privilege model. |
| VMware Avi Load Balancer contains a privilege escalation vulnerability. A malicious actor with admin privileges on VMware Avi Load Balancer can create, modify, execute and delete files as a root user on the host system. |
| Incorrect Privilege Assignment vulnerability in favethemes Houzez allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects Houzez: from n/a through 3.2.4. |
|
A weak encoding is used to transmit credentials for WS203VICM.

| SAPCAR allows an attacker logged in with high privileges to override the permissions of the current and parent directories of the user or process extracting the archive, leading to privilege escalation. On successful exploitation, an attacker could modify the critical files by tampering with signed archives without breaking the signature, but it has a low impact on the confidentiality and availability of the system. |
| SAPCAR allows an attacker logged in with high privileges to create a malicious SAR archive in SAPCAR. This could enable the attacker to exploit critical files and directory permissions without breaking signature validation, resulting in potential privilege escalation. This has high impact on integrity, but low impact on confidentiality and availability of the system. |
| An issue was discovered in WithSecure Elements Agent through 23.x for macOS, WithSecure Elements Client Security through 23.x for macOS, and WithSecure MDR through 23.x for macOS. Local Privilege Escalation can occur during installations or updates by admins. |
| The WPshop 2 – E-Commerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in versions 2.0.0 to 2.6.0. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their details like email & password through the update() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to change arbitrary user's passwords, including administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account. |
| A non-primary administrator user with admin rights to the web interface but without shell access permissions can display configuration of the device including the master admin password. This vulnerability also allows the user to give themselves shell access with the root gid. |
| An issue in SUPERAntiSyware Professional X 10.0.1262 and 10.0.1264 allows unprivileged attackers to escalate privileges via a restore of a crafted DLL file into the C:\Program Files\SUPERAntiSpyware folder. |
| An issue discovered in web-flash v3.0 allows attackers to reset passwords for arbitrary users via crafted POST request to /prod-api/user/resetPassword. |
| Kea configuration and API directives can be used to load a malicious hook library. Many common configurations run Kea as root, leave the API entry points unsecured by default, and/or place the control sockets in insecure paths.
This issue affects Kea versions 2.4.0 through 2.4.1, 2.6.0 through 2.6.2, and 2.7.0 through 2.7.8. |
| An issue was discovered in Alcatel-Lucent ALE NOE deskphones through 86x8_NOE-R300.1.40.12.4180 and SIP deskphones through 86x8_SIP-R200.1.01.10.728. Because of improper privilege management, an authenticated attacker is able to create symlinks to sensitive and protected data in locations that are used for debugging files. Given that the process of gathering debug logs is carried out with root privileges, any file referenced in the symlink is consequently written to the debug archive, thereby granting accessibility to the attacker. |
| A local privilege escalation (LPE) vulnerability has been identified in Phish Alert Button for Outlook (PAB), specifically within its configuration management functionalities. This vulnerability allows a regular user to modify the application's configuration file to redirect update checks to an arbitrary server, which can then be exploited in conjunction with CVE-2024-29209 to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
The issue stems from improper permission settings on the application's configuration file, which is stored in a common directory accessible to all users. This file includes critical parameters, such as the update server URL. By default, the application does not enforce adequate access controls on this file, allowing non-privileged users to modify it without administrative consent.
An attacker with regular user access can alter the update server URL specified in the configuration file to point to a malicious server. When the application performs its next update check, it will contact the attacker-controlled server. If the system is also vulnerable to CVE-2024-29209, the attacker can deliver a malicious update package that, when executed, grants them elevated privileges.
Impact:
This vulnerability can lead to a regular user executing code with administrative privileges. This can result in unauthorized access to sensitive data, installation of additional malware, and a full takeover of the affected system.
Affected Products:
Phish Alert Button (PAB) for Outlook versions 1.10.0-1.10.11
Second Chance Client versions 2.0.0-2.0.9
PIQ Client versions 1.0.0-1.0.15
Remediation:
KnowBe4 has released a patch that corrects the permission settings on the configuration file to prevent unauthorized modifications. Automated updates will be pushed to address this issue. Users of affected versions should verify the latest version is applied and, if not, apply the latest updates provided by KnowBe4.
Workarounds:
Manually set the correct permissions on the configuration file to restrict write access to administrators only.

| A vulnerability has been identified in Spectrum Power 4 (All versions < V4.70 SP12 Update 2). The affected application is vulnerable to a local privilege escalation due to wrongly set permissions to a binary which allows any local attacker to gain administrative privileges. |
