| Unquoted path or search item vulnerability in SugarSync versions prior to 4.1.3 for Windows. This misconfiguration could allow an unauthorized local user to inject arbitrary code into the unquoted service path, resulting in privilege escalation. |
| `gix-path` is a crate of the `gitoxide` project (an implementation of `git` written in Rust) dealing paths and their conversions. Prior to version 0.10.11, `gix-path` runs `git` to find the path of a configuration file associated with the `git` installation, but improperly resolves paths containing unusual or non-ASCII characters, in rare cases enabling a local attacker to inject configuration leading to code execution. Version 0.10.11 contains a patch for the issue.
In `gix_path::env`, the underlying implementation of the `installation_config` and `installation_config_prefix` functions calls `git config -l --show-origin` to find the path of a file to treat as belonging to the `git` installation. Affected versions of `gix-path` do not pass `-z`/`--null` to cause `git` to report literal paths. Instead, to cover the occasional case that `git` outputs a quoted path, they attempt to parse the path by stripping the quotation marks. The problem is that, when a path is quoted, it may change in substantial ways beyond the concatenation of quotation marks. If not reversed, these changes can result in another valid path that is not equivalent to the original.
On a single-user system, it is not possible to exploit this, unless `GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM` and `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL` have been set to unusual values or Git has been installed in an unusual way. Such a scenario is not expected. Exploitation is unlikely even on a multi-user system, though it is plausible in some uncommon configurations or use cases. In general, exploitation is more likely to succeed if users are expected to install `git` themselves, and are likely to do so in predictable locations; locations where `git` is installed, whether due to usernames in their paths or otherwise, contain characters that `git` quotes by default in paths, such as non-English letters and accented letters; a custom `system`-scope configuration file is specified with the `GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM` environment variable, and its path is in an unusual location or has strangely named components; or a `system`-scope configuration file is absent, empty, or suppressed by means other than `GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM`. Currently, `gix-path` can treat a `global`-scope configuration file as belonging to the installation if no higher scope configuration file is available. This increases the likelihood of exploitation even on a system where `git` is installed system-wide in an ordinary way. However, exploitation is expected to be very difficult even under any combination of those factors. |
| Uncontrolled search path for some Intel(R) oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler software before version 2025.0.0 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Uncontrolled search path for some Intel(R) Graphics Driver software may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Trial installer for McAfee Total Protection (legacy trial installer software) 16.0.53 allows local privilege escalation because of an Uncontrolled Search Path Element. The attacker could be "an adversary or knowledgeable user" and the type of attack could be called "DLL-squatting." The issue only affects execution of this installer, and does not leave McAfee Total Protection in a vulnerable state after installation is completed. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer. |
| In Electronic Arts Dragon Age Origins 1.05, the DAUpdaterSVC service contains an unquoted service path vulnerability. This service is configured with insecure permissions, allowing users to modify the executable file path used by the service. The service runs with NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges, enabling attackers to escalate privileges by replacing or placing a malicious executable in the service path. |
| NetMod VPN Client 5.3.1 is vulnerable to DLL injection, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code by placing a malicious DLL in a directory where the application loads dependencies. This vulnerability arises due to the improper validation of dynamically loaded libraries. |
| The passprompt plugin in pppd in ppp before 2.5.2 mishandles privileges. |
| A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in Parsec Automation TrakSYS 11.x.x. Affected is an unknown function of the file TS/export/contentpage of the component Export Page. The manipulation of the argument ID leads to direct request. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-270000. NOTE: The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. |
| An incorrect privilege assignment vulnerability in the Palo Alto Networks GlobalProtect™ App on enables a locally authenticated non administrative user to escalate their privileges to root on macOS and Linux or NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM on Windows.
The GlobalProtect app on iOS, Android, Chrome OS and GlobalProtect UWP app are not affected. |
| Unquoted Search Path or Element vulnerability in OpenText™ Service Manager.
The vulnerability could allow a user to gain SYSTEM privileges through Privilege Escalation.
This issue affects Service Manager: 9.70, 9.71, 9.72. |
| A flaw was found in Keycloak. The Keycloak guides recommend to not expose /admin path to the outside in case the installation is using a proxy. The issue occurs at least via ha-proxy, as it can be tricked to using relative/non-normalized paths to access the /admin application path relative to /realms which is expected to be exposed. |
| A security vulnerability has been detected in LibreWolf up to 143.0.4-1 on Windows. This affects an unknown function of the file assets/setup.nsi of the component Installer. Such manipulation leads to uncontrolled search path. The attack must be carried out locally. Attacks of this nature are highly complex. The exploitability is reported as difficult. Upgrading to version 144.0-1 mitigates this issue. The name of the patch is dd10e31dd873e9cb309fad8aed921d45bf905a55. It is suggested to upgrade the affected component. |
| The service Bizerba Communication Server (BCS) has an unquoted service path. Due to the way Windows searches the executable for the BCS service, malicious programs can be executed. |
| When the service of ABP and AES is installed in a directory writable by non-administrative users, an attacker can replace or plant a DLL with the same name as one loaded by the service. Upon service restart, the malicious DLL is loaded and executed under the LocalSystem account, resulting in unauthorized code execution with elevated privileges.
This issue affects ABP and AES: from ABP 2.0 through 2.0.7.9050, from AES 1.0 through 1.0.6.8290. |
| IBM App Connect Enterprise Certified Container CD: 11.2.0 through 11.6.0, 12.1.0 through 12.19.0 and 12.0 LTS: 12.0.0 through 12.0.19 could allow an attacker to access sensitive files or modify configurations due to an untrusted search path. |
| A flaw has been found in Artifex MuPDF up to 1.26.1 on Windows. The impacted element is the function get_system_dpi of the file platform/x11/win_main.c. This manipulation causes uncontrolled search path. The attack requires local access. The attack is considered to have high complexity. The exploitability is regarded as difficult. Upgrading to version 1.26.2 is sufficient to resolve this issue. Patch name: ebb125334eb007d64e579204af3c264aadf2e244. Upgrading the affected component is recommended. |
| Uncontrolled search path element for some Intel(R) Ethernet Connection software before version 29.4 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Uncontrolled search path for some Intel(R) oneAPI Toolkit and component software installers may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Uncontrolled search path for some Intel(R) Graphics software for Intel(R) Arc™ graphics and Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe graphics before version 32.0.101.6325/32.0.101.6252 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
