In createQuickShareAction of SaveImageInBackgroundTask.java, there is a possible way to trigger a background activity launch due to an unsafe PendingIntent. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

In onHostEmulationData of HostEmulationManager.java, there is a possible way for a general purpose NFC reader to read the full card number and expiry details when the device is in locked screen mode due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to local information disclosure with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

In updateList of NotificationAccessSettings.java, there is a possible way to hide approved notification listeners in the settings due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

Privilege escalation from having CREATE access on a keyspace in Scylladb

Scylladb is a NoSQL data store using the seastar framework, compatible with Apache Cassandra. Authenticated users who are authorized to create tables in a keyspace can escalate their privileges to access a table in the same keyspace, even if they don't have permissions for that table. This issue has not yet been patched. A workaround to address this issue is to disable CREATE privileges on a keyspace, and create new tables on behalf of other users.

Dell Display Manager application, version 2.1.1.17, contains a vulnerability that low privilege user can execute malicious code during installation and uninstallation

Apache StreamPipes: Privilege escalation through non-admin user

A REST interface in Apache StreamPipes (versions 0.69.0 to 0.91.0) was not properly restricted to admin-only access. This allowed a non-admin user with valid login credentials to elevate privileges beyond the initially assigned roles. The issue is resolved by upgrading to StreamPipes 0.92.0.

Protection mechanism failure in some Intel DCM software before version 5.2 may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via network access.

Execution with Unnecessary Privileges

An Execution with Unnecessary Privileges vulnerability in the Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories SEL-5037 SEL Grid Configurator could allow an attacker to run system commands with the highest level privilege on the system. See Instruction Manual Appendix A and Appendix E dated 20230615 for more details. This issue affects SEL-5037 SEL Grid Configurator: before 4.5.0.20.

Apache InLong: Privilege escalation vulnerability for InLong

Improper Privilege Management Vulnerabilities in Apache Software Foundation Apache InLong.This issue affects Apache InLong: from 1.2.0 through 1.6.0.  When the attacker has access to a valid (but unprivileged) account, the exploit can be executed using Burp Suite by sending a login request and following it with a subsequent HTTP request using the returned cookie. Users are advised to upgrade to Apache InLong's 1.7.0 or cherry-pick https://github.com/apache/inlong/pull/7836 https://github.com/apache/inlong/pull/7836 to solve it.
