abrt: abrt-hook-ccpp writes core dumps to existing files owned by others

The kernel-invoked coredump processor in Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (ABRT) does not properly check the ownership of files before writing core dumps to them, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by leveraging write permissions to the working directory of a crashed application.

ICSA-20-140-02 Emerson OpenEnterprise

Inadequate folder security permissions in Emerson OpenEnterprise versions through 3.3.4 may allow modification of important configuration files, which could cause the system to fail or behave in an unpredictable manner.

PAN-OS: Improper Group Membership Change Vulnerability in Cloud Identity Engine (CIE)

A vulnerability in how Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software processes data received from Cloud Identity Engine (CIE) agents enables modification of User-ID groups. This impacts user access to network resources where users may be inappropriately denied or allowed access to resources based on your existing Security Policy rules.

A valid, authenticated LXCA user without sufficient privileges may be able to use the device identifier to modify an LXCA managed device through a specially crafted web API call.

A valid, authenticated LXCA user may be able to unmanage an LXCA managed device in through the LXCA web interface without sufficient privileges.

A vulnerability has been identified in Medicalis Workflow Orchestrator (All versions). The affected application executes as a trusted account with high privileges and network access. This could allow an authenticated local attacker to escalate privileges.

meetyoucrop big-whale Admin Module all.api improper ownership management

A vulnerability was found in meetyoucrop big-whale 1.1 and classified as critical. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file /auth/user/all.api of the component Admin Module. The manipulation of the argument id leads to improper ownership management. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-250232.

Bypass of safe.directory protections in Git

Git is a distributed revision control system. Git prior to versions 2.37.1, 2.36.2, 2.35.4, 2.34.4, 2.33.4, 2.32.3, 2.31.4, and 2.30.5, is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all platforms. An unsuspecting user could still be affected by the issue reported in CVE-2022-24765, for example when navigating as root into a shared tmp directory that is owned by them, but where an attacker could create a git repository. Versions 2.37.1, 2.36.2, 2.35.4, 2.34.4, 2.33.4, 2.32.3, 2.31.4, and 2.30.5 contain a patch for this issue. The simplest way to avoid being affected by the exploit described in the example is to avoid running git as root (or an Administrator in Windows), and if needed to reduce its use to a minimum. While a generic workaround is not possible, a system could be hardened from the exploit described in the example by removing any such repository if it exists already and creating one as root to block any future attacks.

Cortex XDR Agent: Unintended Program Execution Leads to Local Privilege Escalation (PE) Vulnerability

A local privilege escalation (PE) vulnerability exists in Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR agent software on Windows that enables an authenticated local user with file creation privilege in the Windows root directory (such as C:\) to execute a program with elevated privileges. This issue impacts all versions of Cortex XDR agent without content update 330 or a later content update version.

mariadb: Named pipe permission issue on Windows

With MariaDB running on Windows, when local clients connect to the server over named pipes, it's possible for an unprivileged user with an ability to run code on the server machine to intercept the named pipe connection and act as a man-in-the-middle, gaining access to all the data passed between the client and the server, and getting the ability to run SQL commands on behalf of the connected user. This occurs because of an incorrect security descriptor. This affects MariaDB Server before 10.1.48, 10.2.x before 10.2.35, 10.3.x before 10.3.26, 10.4.x before 10.4.16, and 10.5.x before 10.5.7. NOTE: this issue exists because certain details of the MariaDB CVE-2019-2503 fix did not comprehensively address attack variants against MariaDB. This situation is specific to MariaDB, and thus CVE-2020-28912 does NOT apply to other vendors that were originally affected by CVE-2019-2503.

Mozilla: Downgrade attack on the Mozilla Maintenance Service could have resulted in escalation of privilege

If Firefox is installed to a user-writable directory, the Mozilla Maintenance Service would execute updater.exe from the install location with system privileges. Although the Mozilla Maintenance Service does ensure that updater.exe is signed by Mozilla, the version could have been rolled back to a previous version which would have allowed exploitation of an older bug and arbitrary code execution with System Privileges. *Note: This issue only affected Windows operating systems. Other operating systems are unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 80, Thunderbird < 78.2, Thunderbird < 68.12, Firefox ESR < 68.12, and Firefox ESR < 78.2.

python-rtslib: weak permissions for /etc/target/saveconfig.json

Open-iSCSI rtslib-fb through 2.1.72 has weak permissions for /etc/target/saveconfig.json because shutil.copyfile (instead of shutil.copy) is used, and thus permissions are not preserved.

gvfs: mishandling of file's user and group ownership in daemon/gvfsbackendadmin.c due to unavailability of root privileges

An issue was discovered in GNOME gvfs 1.29.4 through 1.41.2. daemon/gvfsbackendadmin.c mishandles a file's user and group ownership during move (and copy with G_FILE_COPY_ALL_METADATA) operations from admin:// to file:// URIs, because root privileges are unavailable.

gvfs: mishandling of file ownership in daemon/gvfsbackendadmin.c

An issue was discovered in GNOME gvfs 1.29.4 through 1.41.2. daemon/gvfsbackendadmin.c mishandles file ownership because setfsuid is not used.

policycoreutils: Relabelling of symbolic links in /tmp and /var/tmp change the context of their target instead

Context relabeling of filesystems is vulnerable to symbolic link attack, allowing a local, unprivileged malicious entity to change the SELinux context of an arbitrary file to a context with few restrictions. This only happens when the relabeling process is done, usually when taking SELinux state from disabled to enable (permissive or enforcing). The issue was found in policycoreutils 2.5-11.

jboss: unsafe chown of server.log in jboss init script allows privilege escalation (Incomplete fix for CVE-2016-8656)

It was discovered that the jboss init script as used in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.0.7.GA performed unsafe file handling which could result in local privilege escalation. This issue is a result of an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-8656.
