An exploitable privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Shimo VPN 4.1.5.1 helper service in the RunVpncScript command. The command takes a user-supplied script argument and executes it under root context. A user with local access can use this vulnerability to raise their privileges to root. An attacker would need local access to the machine to successfully exploit this bug.

BMC Firmware in Intel server boards, compute modules, and systems potentially allow an attacker with administrative privileges to make unauthorized read\writes to the SMBUS.

Insufficient input validation in installer in Intel Rapid Store Technology (RST) before version 16.7 may allow an unprivileged user to potentially elevate privileges or cause an installer denial of service via local access.

In some SAP standard roles, in SAP_ABA versions, 7.00 to 7.02, 7.10 to 7.11, 7.30, 7.31, 7.40, 7.50, 75C to 75D, a transaction code reserved for customer is used. By implementing such transaction code a malicious user may execute unauthorized transaction functionality.

Certain NETGEAR devices are affected by authentication bypass. This affects JNR1010v2 before 1.1.0.48, JWNR2010v5 before 1.1.0.48, WNR1000v4 before 1.1.0.48, WNR2020 before 1.1.0.48, and WNR2050 before 1.1.0.48.

NETGEAR WAC510 devices before 5.0.0.17 are affected by privilege escalation.

In Centreon VM through 19.04.3, centreon-backup.pl allows attackers to become root via a crafted script, due to incorrect rights of sourced configuration files.

The Swape theme before 1.2.1 for WordPress has incorrect access control, as demonstrated by allowing new administrator accounts via vectors involving xmlPath to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php.

Certain Secure Access SA Series SSL VPN products (originally developed by Juniper Networks but now sold and supported by Pulse Secure, LLC) allow privilege escalation, as demonstrated by Secure Access SSL VPN SA-4000 5.1R5 (build 9627) 4.2 Release (build 7631). This occurs because appropriate controls are not performed. Specifically, it is possible for a readonly user to change the administrator user password by making a local copy of the /dana-admin/user/update.cgi page, changing the "user" value, and saving the changes.

IBM API Connect 5.0.0.0 through 5.0.8.4 allows a user with limited 'API Administrator level access to give themselves full 'Administrator' level access through the members functionality. IBM X-Force ID: 153914.

IBM Campaign 9.1.0 and 9.1.2 could allow a local user to obtain admini privileges due to the application not validating access permissions. IBM X-Force ID: 153382.

IBM Spectrum Protect 7.1 and 8.1 could allow a local user to corrupt or delete highly sensitive information that would cause a denial of service to other users. IBM X-Force ID: 142696.

IBM Netezza Platform Software (IBM PureData System for Analytics 1.0.0) could allow a local user to modify a world writable file, which could be used to execute commands as root. IBM X-Force ID: 140211.

IBM Security Guardium Database Activity Monitor 9.0, 9.1, and 9.5 could allow a local user with low privileges to view report pages and perform some actions that only an admin should be performing, so there is risk that someone not authorized can change things that they are not suppose to. IBM X-Force ID: 137765.

An issue was discovered in EMC RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle versions 7.0.1, 7.0.2, all patch levels (hardware appliance and software bundle deployments only); RSA Via Lifecycle and Governance version 7.0, all patch levels (hardware appliance and software bundle deployments only); RSA Identity Management & Governance (RSA IMG) versions 6.9.0, 6.9.1, all patch levels (hardware appliance and software bundle deployments only). It allows certain OS level users to execute arbitrary scripts with root level privileges.

An issue was discovered in Moodle 3.x. Students who submitted assignments and exported them to portfolios can download any stored Moodle file by changing the download URL.

An issue was discovered in hitshop through 2014-07-15. There is an elevation-of-privilege vulnerability (that allows control over the whole web site) via the admin.php/user/add URI because a storekeeper account (which is supposed to have only privileges for commodity management) can add an administrator account.

Adobe Acrobat and Reader versions 2019.010.20069 and earlier, 2017.011.30113 and earlier version, and 2015.006.30464 and earlier have a security bypass vulnerability. Successful exploitation could lead to privilege escalation.

An issue was discovered in ADTRAN PMAA 1.6.2-1, 1.6.3, and 1.6.4. NETCONF Access Management (NACM) allows unprivileged users to create privileged users and execute arbitrary commands via the use of the diagnostic-profile over RESTCONF.

CA Service Desk Manager 14.1 and 17 contain a vulnerability that can allow a malicious actor to escalate privileges in the user interface.
