Local Permissions Misconfiguration Enabling Arbitrary File Read/Write and Installation Denial in Synology Assistant

An incorrect default permissions vulnerability in Synology Assistant before 7.0.7-50095 allows local users to read or write arbitrary files and conduct denial-of-service during installation.

nodejs: Node.js: Permission bypass allows unauthorized modification of file permissions and ownership via incomplete security fix.

An incomplete fix for CVE-2024-36137 leaves `FileHandle.chmod()` and `FileHandle.chown()` in the promises API without the required permission checks, while their callback-based equivalents (`fs.fchmod()`, `fs.fchown()`) were correctly patched. As a result, code running under `--permission` with restricted `--allow-fs-write` can still use promise-based `FileHandle` methods to modify file permissions and ownership on already-open file descriptors, bypassing the intended write restrictions. This vulnerability affects **20.x, 22.x, 24.x, and 25.x** processes using the Permission Model where `--allow-fs-write` is intentionally restricted.

mise: Incorrect file ownership, when installed by the root user using `install.sh`

mise manages dev tools like node, python, cmake, and terraform. Prior to 2026.7.1, release tar archives record mise/bin/mise with user and group ID 1001 and packaging/standalone/install.envsubst extracts and moves it without normalizing ownership, allowing a local user with those IDs to replace a root-installed executable, especially when MISE_INSTALL_PATH targets a shared location such as /usr/local/bin. This issue is fixed in version 2026.7.1.

ksmbd: use opener credentials for FSCTL mutations

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: use opener credentials for FSCTL mutations SET_SPARSE, SET_ZERO_DATA and SET_COMPRESSION operate on an open SMB handle but call VFS xattr, fallocate or fileattr helpers with the current ksmbd worker credentials. Those helpers can revalidate inode permissions, ownership and LSM policy independently of the SMB handle access mask. Run each operation with the credentials captured in the target file when the handle was opened. Keep credential handling local to these single-file FSCTLs rather than applying session credentials to the complete IOCTL handler, which also contains handle-less and multi-handle operations.

netdev-genl: report NAPI thread PID in the caller's pid namespace

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netdev-genl: report NAPI thread PID in the caller's pid namespace netdev_nl_napi_fill_one() reports the NAPI kthread PID in NETDEV_A_NAPI_PID using task_pid_nr(), which returns the PID in the initial pid namespace. NETDEV_CMD_NAPI_GET does not have GENL_ADMIN_PERM and the netdev genl family is netnsok, so a caller in a child pid namespace can issue it. That caller then sees the kthread's global PID, even though the kthread is not visible in its pid namespace, where the value should be 0. Translate the PID through the caller's pid namespace, the same way commit 3799c2570982 ("io_uring/fdinfo: translate SqThread PID through caller's pid_ns") did for the io_uring SQPOLL thread. The doit and dumpit paths both run synchronously in the caller's context, so task_active_pid_ns(current) is the caller's pid namespace.

KVM: arm64: nv: Respect read-only PFN when mapping L1 VNCR

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: arm64: nv: Respect read-only PFN when mapping L1 VNCR KVM currently maps the L1 VNCR into the host stage-1 by relying entirely on the permissions of the guest stage-1. At the same time, it is entirely possible that the backing PFN is read-only (e.g. RO memslot), meaning that the L1 VNCR should use at most a read-only mapping. Cache the writability of the PFN in the VNCR TLB and use it to constrain the resulting fixmap permissions. Promote VNCR permission faults to an SEA in the case where the guest attempts to write to a read-only endpoint. Conveniently, this also plugs a page leak found by Sashiko [*] resulting from the early return for a read-only PFN.

PowerShell Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

Incorrect default permissions in Microsoft PowerShell allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

TRENDNET TEW-813DRU vsftpd vsftpd.conf default permission

A flaw has been found in TRENDNET TEW-813DRU 1.01b01. Impacted is an unknown function of the file /etc/vsftpd.conf of the component vsftpd. This manipulation causes incorrect default permissions. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. A high degree of complexity is needed for the attack. The exploitability is considered difficult. This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.

HCL AION is affected by multiple security vulnerabilities.

HCL AION is affected by a vulnerability where the shared storage used by product components is architected without sufficient access separation. Processes sharing the storage may be able to access or modify files beyond their intended scope, potentially resulting in unintended behavior or security impact under certain conditions.

Uasoft Badaso File API api.php class permission

A vulnerability has been found in Uasoft Badaso 3.0.0-alpha. This vulnerability affects the function ApiRequest::class of the file src/Routes/api.php of the component File API. The manipulation leads to permission issues. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

Improper Permissions in Lenovo Dock Manager Allowing Local Privilege Escalation

During an internal security assessment, a potential improper permissions vulnerability was discovered in Lenovo Dock Manager that could allow a local authenticated user to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

Weak permissions in the Vitis™ Unified installation path on local Windows machines could allow a low-privileged user to create arbitrary code, potentially resulting in binary hijacking.

Weak permissions in the Vitis™ Unified installation path on local Windows machines could allow a low-privileged user to achieve privileged escalation, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.

turso-cli persists Turso platform JWT with world-readable (0o644) file permissions

Turso CLI is the command line interface (CLI) to the open-source database Turso. Versions prior to 1.0.26 persist the user's Turso platform JWT to `settings.json` using Viper's default `configPermissions` of `0o644`, leaving the credential file world-readable on standard Linux and macOS systems. Any other local UID on the host can read the file and recover the platform JWT, which grants full Turso platform access scoped to the user's organizations. Version 1.0.26 patches the issue.

SurrealDB before 2.1.4 Permission Bypass via DEFINE TABLE OVERWRITE

SurrealDB before 2.1.4 silently fails to overwrite table definitions when the DEFINE TABLE ... OVERWRITE clause is used on tables defined with TYPE RELATION. Because table definitions include the PERMISSIONS clause, an attempt to tighten a table's permissions via OVERWRITE does not take effect, and the administrator may incorrectly believe the change was applied. As a result, a client authorized to run queries may continue to access data in that table that the updated (but unapplied) permissions were intended to restrict.

Apache Accumulo: A user can trigger a graceful shutdown of services without the relevant system permissions

Improper Handling of Insufficient Privileges vulnerability in Apache Accumulo. An authenticated, but low-privileged user without system permissions may issue a remote command to gracefully shutdown system components (compaction-coordinator, compactor, gc, manager, monitor, tserver, or sserver), leading to a denial of service. This issue affects Apache Accumulo 2.1.4 and 2.1.5. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.1.6, which fixes the issue.

Cisco Firepower Threat Defense Software HTTP Filtering Bypass Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the HTTP traffic filtering component of Cisco Firepower Threat Defense Software, Cisco FirePOWER Services Software for ASA, and Cisco Firepower Management Center Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass filtering protections. The vulnerability is due to improper handling of HTTP requests, including those communicated over a secure HTTPS connection, that contain maliciously crafted headers. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending malicious requests to an affected device. An exploit could allow the attacker to bypass filtering and deliver malicious requests to protected systems, allowing attackers to deliver malicious content that would otherwise be blocked.
