Improper Privilege Management in McAfee Agent for Windows

A local privilege escalation vulnerability in MA for Windows prior to 5.7.6 allows a local low privileged user to gain system privileges through running the repair functionality. Temporary file actions were performed on the local user's %TEMP% directory with System privileges through manipulation of symbolic links.

Insufficient policy enforcement in Installer in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 99.0.4844.51 allowed a remote attacker to perform local privilege escalation via a crafted offline installer file.

GlobalProtect App: Improper Link Resolution Vulnerability Leads to Local Privilege Escalation

An improper link resolution before file access ('link following') vulnerability exists in the Palo Alto Networks GlobalProtect app on Windows that enables a local attacker to disrupt system processes and potentially execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges under certain circumstances. This issue impacts: GlobalProtect app 5.1 versions earlier than GlobalProtect app 5.1.10 on Windows. GlobalProtect app 5.2 versions earlier than GlobalProtect app 5.2.5 on Windows. This issue does not affect GlobalProtect app on other platforms.

Cortex XDR Agent: Local Arbitrary File Deletion Vulnerability

An improper link resolution before file access vulnerability exists in the Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR agent on Windows platforms that enables a local user to delete arbitrary system files and impact the system integrity or cause a denial of service condition. This issue impacts: Cortex XDR agent 5.0 versions earlier than Cortex XDR agent 5.0.12; Cortex XDR agent 6.1 versions earlier than Cortex XDR agent 6.1.9; Cortex XDR agent 7.2 versions earlier than Cortex XDR agent 7.2.4; Cortex XDR agent 7.3 versions earlier than Cortex XDR agent 7.3.2.

phpRedisAdmin login.inc.php authHttpDigest wrong operator in string comparison

A vulnerability was found in phpRedisAdmin up to 1.16.1. It has been classified as problematic. This affects the function authHttpDigest of the file includes/login.inc.php. The manipulation of the argument response leads to use of wrong operator in string comparison. Upgrading to version 1.16.2 is able to address this issue. The name of the patch is 31aa7661e6db6f4dffbf9a635817832a0a11c7d9. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. The associated identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-216267.

A link following denial-of-service vulnerability in Trend Micro Worry-Free Business Security (on prem only) could allow a local attacker to overwrite arbitrary files in the context of SYSTEM. This is similar to, but not the same as CVE-2021-44024. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

A link following privilege escalation vulnerability in Trend Micro Apex One (on-prem and SaaS) and Trend Micro Worry-Free Business Security (10.0 SP1 and Services) could allow a local attacker to create a specially crafted file with arbitrary content which could grant local privilege escalation on the affected system. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

snapd could be made to escalate privileges and run programs as administrator

snapd 2.54.2 did not properly validate the location of the snap-confine binary. A local attacker who can hardlink this binary to another location to cause snap-confine to execute other arbitrary binaries and hence gain privilege escalation. Fixed in snapd versions 2.54.3+18.04, 2.54.3+20.04 and 2.54.3+21.10.1

samba: Information leak via symlinks of existance of files or directories outside of the exported share

All versions of Samba prior to 4.15.5 are vulnerable to a malicious client using a server symlink to determine if a file or directory exists in an area of the server file system not exported under the share definition. SMB1 with unix extensions has to be enabled in order for this attack to succeed.

Arbitrary file read

An improper link resolution before file access ('Link Following') vulnerability has been reported to affect QNAP device running QuTScloud, QuTS hero, and QTS. If exploited, this vulnerability allows remote attackers to traverse the file system to unintended locations and read or overwrite the contents of unexpected files. We have already fixed this vulnerability in the following versions of QuTScloud, QuTS hero, and QTS: QuTScloud c5.0.1.1998 and later QuTS hero h4.5.4.1971 build 20220310 and later QuTS hero h5.0.0.1986 build 20220324 and later QTS 4.3.4.1976 build 20220303 and later QTS 4.3.3.1945 build 20220303 and later QTS 4.2.6 build 20220304 and later QTS 4.3.6.1965 build 20220302 and later QTS 5.0.0.1986 build 20220324 and later QTS 4.5.4.1991 build 20220329 and later

quagga: unsafe chown/chmod operations may lead to privileges escalation

An issue was discovered in Quagga through 1.2.4. Unsafe chown/chmod operations in the suggested spec file allow users (with control of the non-root-owned directory /etc/quagga) to escalate their privileges to root upon package installation or update.

A link following denial-of-service vulnerability in Trend Micro Apex One (on-prem and SaaS) and Trend Micro Worry-Free Business Security (10.0 SP1 and Services) could allow a local attacker to overwrite arbitrary files in the context of SYSTEM. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

A link following denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability in the Trend Micro Security (Consumer) 2021 familiy of products could allow an attacker to abuse the PC Health Checkup feature of the product to create symlinks that would allow modification of files which could lead to a denial-of-service.
