An elevation of privilege vulnerability in Bluetooth could enable a proximate attacker to manage access to documents on the device. This issue is rated as Moderate because it first requires exploitation of a separate vulnerability in the Bluetooth stack. Product: Android. Versions: 5.0.2, 5.1.1, 6.0, 6.0.1, 7.0, 7.1.1. Android ID: A-32612586.

KBVault Mysql Free Knowledge Base application package 0.16a comes with a FileExplorer/Explorer.aspx?id=/Uploads file-management component. An unauthenticated user can access the file upload and deletion functionality. Through this functionality, a user can upload an ASPX script to Uploads/Documents/ to run any arbitrary code.

QCI: creates world readable /var/lib/ovirt-engine/setup/engine-DC-config.py contains sensitive password

/var/lib/ovirt-engine/setup/engine-DC-config.py in Red Hat QuickStart Cloud Installer (QCI) before 1.0 GA is created world readable and contains the root password of the deployed system.

openldap-servers: /usr/libexec/openldap/generate-server-cert.sh create world readable password file

/usr/libexec/openldap/generate-server-cert.sh in openldap-servers sets weak permissions for the TLS certificate, which allows local users to obtain the TLS certificate by leveraging a race condition between the creation of the certificate, and the chmod to protect it.

authd insecure /etc/ident.key file creation

authd sets weak permissions for /etc/ident.key, which allows local users to obtain the key by leveraging a race condition between the creation of the key, and the chmod to protect it.

Infotecs ViPNet Client and Coordinator before 4.3.2-42442 allow local users to gain privileges by placing a Trojan horse ViPNet update file in the update folder. The attack succeeds because of incorrect folder permissions in conjunction with a lack of integrity and authenticity checks.

subscription-manager: sensitive world readable files in /var/lib/rhsm/

The Subscription Manager package (aka subscription-manager) before 1.17.7-1 for Candlepin uses weak permissions (755) for subscription-manager cache directories, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading files in the directories.

pulp: Leakage of CA key in pulp-qpid-ssl-cfg

The pulp-qpid-ssl-cfg script in Pulp before 2.8.5 allows local users to obtain the CA key.

Password exposure in Cognito Software Moneyworks 8.0.3 and earlier allows attackers to gain administrator access to all data, because verbose logging writes the administrator password to a world-readable file.

flatpak: Privilege escalation via setuid/world-writable file permissions

In Flatpak before 0.8.7, a third-party app repository could include malicious apps that contain files with inappropriate permissions, for example setuid or world-writable. The files are deployed with those permissions, which would let a local attacker run the setuid executable or write to the world-writable location. In the case of the "system helper" component, files deployed as part of the app are owned by root, so in the worst case they could be setuid root.

In Apache Impala (incubating) before 2.10.0, a malicious user with "ALTER" permissions on an Impala table can access any other Kudu table data by altering the table properties to make it "external" and then changing the underlying table mapping to point to other Kudu tables. This violates and works around the authorization requirement that creating a Kudu external table via Impala requires an "ALL" privilege at the server scope. This privilege requirement for "CREATE" commands is enforced to precisely avoid this scenario where a malicious user can change the underlying Kudu table mapping. The fix is to enforce the same privilege requirement for "ALTER" commands that would make existing non-external Kudu tables external.

rsyslog: some log files are created world-readable

rsyslog uses weak permissions for generating log files, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading files in /var/log/cron.

sosreport: temporary file created with world-readable permissions

sosreport 3.2 uses weak permissions for generated sosreport archives, which allows local users with access to /var/tmp/ to obtain sensitive information by reading the contents of the archive.

A denial of service vulnerability in the Android framework (syncstorageengine). Product: Android. Versions: 5.0.2, 5.1.1, 6.0, 6.0.1, 7.0, 7.1.1, 7.1.2. Android ID: A-35028827.

X-Pack 5.1.1 did not properly apply document and field level security to multi-search and multi-get requests so users without access to a document and/or field may have been able to access this information.

X-Pack Security 5.2.x would allow access to more fields than the user should have seen if the field level security rules used a mix of grant and exclude rules when merging multiple rules with field level security rules for the same index.

The OS Installation Management component in CA Client Automation r12.9, r14.0, and r14.0 SP1 places an encrypted password into a readable local file during operating system installation, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading this file after operating system installation.

salt: Minion code copies over configuration from the Salt Master without adjusting permissions

The salt-ssh minion code in SaltStack Salt 2016.11 before 2016.11.4 copied over configuration from the Salt Master without adjusting permissions, which might leak credentials to local attackers on configured minions (clients).

kernel: mm subsystem does not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM protection mechanism

The mm subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.2 does not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM protection mechanism, which allows local users to read or write to kernel memory locations in the first megabyte (and bypass slab-allocation access restrictions) via an application that opens the /dev/mem file, related to arch/x86/mm/init.c and drivers/char/mem.c.

Nessus 6.10.x before 6.10.5 was found to be vulnerable to a local privilege escalation issue due to insecure permissions when running in Agent Mode.
