A local privilege escalation (LPE) vulnerability has been identified in Phish Alert Button for Outlook (PAB), specifically within its configuration management functionalities. This vulnerability allows a regular user to modify the application's configuration file to redirect update checks to an arbitrary server, which can then be exploited in conjunction with CVE-2024-29209 to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges. The issue stems from improper permission settings on the application's configuration file, which is stored in a common directory accessible to all users. This file includes critical parameters, such as the update server URL. By default, the application does not enforce adequate access controls on this file, allowing non-privileged users to modify it without administrative consent. An attacker with regular user access can alter the update server URL specified in the configuration file to point to a malicious server. When the application performs its next update check, it will contact the attacker-controlled server. If the system is also vulnerable to CVE-2024-29209, the attacker can deliver a malicious update package that, when executed, grants them elevated privileges. Impact: This vulnerability can lead to a regular user executing code with administrative privileges. This can result in unauthorized access to sensitive data, installation of additional malware, and a full takeover of the affected system. Affected Products: Phish Alert Button (PAB) for Outlook versions 1.10.0-1.10.11 Second Chance Client versions 2.0.0-2.0.9 PIQ Client versions 1.0.0-1.0.15 Remediation: KnowBe4 has released a patch that corrects the permission settings on the configuration file to prevent unauthorized modifications. Automated updates will be pushed to address this issue. Users of affected versions should verify the latest version is applied and, if not, apply the latest updates provided by KnowBe4. Workarounds: Manually set the correct permissions on the configuration file to restrict write access to administrators only. Credits: This vulnerability was discovered by Ceri Coburn at Pen Test Partners, who reported it responsibly to the vendor.

An issue was discovered in Alcatel-Lucent ALE NOE deskphones through 86x8_NOE-R300.1.40.12.4180 and SIP deskphones through 86x8_SIP-R200.1.01.10.728. Because of improper privilege management, an authenticated attacker is able to create symlinks to sensitive and protected data in locations that are used for debugging files. Given that the process of gathering debug logs is carried out with root privileges, any file referenced in the symlink is consequently written to the debug archive, thereby granting accessibility to the attacker.

An issue discovered in web-flash v3.0 allows attackers to reset passwords for arbitrary users via crafted POST request to /prod-api/user/resetPassword.

An issue was discovered in WithSecure Elements Agent through 23.x for macOS, WithSecure Elements Client Security through 23.x for macOS, and WithSecure MDR through 23.x for macOS. Local Privilege Escalation can occur during installations or updates by admins.

Potential vulnerabilities have been identified in the HP Display Control software component within the HP Application Enabling Software Driver which might allow escalation of privilege.

VMware Avi Load Balancer updates address multiple vulnerabilities

VMware Avi Load Balancer contains a privilege escalation vulnerability. A malicious actor with admin privileges on VMware Avi Load Balancer can create, modify, execute and delete files as a root user on the host system.

nodejs: setuid() does not drop all privileges due to io_uring

setuid() does not affect libuv's internal io_uring operations if initialized before the call to setuid(). This allows the process to perform privileged operations despite presumably having dropped such privileges through a call to setuid(). This vulnerability affects all users using version greater or equal than Node.js 18.18.0, Node.js 20.4.0 and Node.js 21.

Exposure of resource to wrong sphere in some Intel(R) DTT software installers may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

Improper initialization in the Linux kernel mode driver for some Intel(R) Ethernet Network Controllers and Adapters before version 28.3 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

WordPress Houzez Login Register plugin <= 3.2.5 - Privilege Escalation vulnerability

Privilege Escalation vulnerability in favethemes Houzez Login Register houzez-login-register.This issue affects Houzez Login Register: from n/a through 3.2.5.

Cisco NX-OS Bash Arbitrary Code Execution Vulnerability

A vulnerability in Cisco NX-OS Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker with privileges to access the Bash shell to&nbsp;execute arbitrary code as root on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to insufficient security restrictions when executing commands from the Bash shell. An attacker with privileges to access the Bash shell could exploit this vulnerability by executing a specific crafted command on the underlying operating system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of root.

Elevation of privileges vulnerability

By leveraging the vulnerability, lower-privileged users of Content Manager can manipulate Content Manager clients to elevate privileges and perform unauthorized operations.

A DLL hijacking vulnerability in the AMD Ryzen™ Master Utility could allow an attacker to achieve privilege escalation, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.

Industrial <= 1.7.8 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary Options Update

The Industrial theme for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data that can lead to privilege escalation due to a missing capability check on the _ajax_get_total_content_import_items() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.8. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to update arbitrary options on the WordPress site. This can be leveraged to update the default role for registration to administrator and enable user registration for attackers to gain administrative user access to a vulnerable site.
