Razer RzUpdateService Named Pipe RzUpdateService.exe privileges management

A weakness has been identified in Razer RzUpdateService 1.10.14.0. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the file C:\Program Files (x86)\Razer\RzUpdateEngineService\RzUpdateService.exe of the component Named Pipe Handler. Executing a manipulation of the argument lpThreadParameter can lead to improper privilege management. The attack requires local access. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure.

An issue in Razer Synapse 3 v.3.9.131.20813 and Synapse 3 App v.20240213 allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary code via the export parameter of the Chroma Effects function in the Profiles component.

Razer Synapse 3 Macro Module Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

Razer Synapse 3 Macro Module Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Razer Synapse 3. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Razer Synapse Service. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the service to delete arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-26374.

Razer Synapse 3 RazerPhilipsHueUninstall Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

Razer Synapse 3 RazerPhilipsHueUninstall Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Razer Synapse 3. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Philips HUE module installer. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the installer to delete arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-26375.

Razer Synapse 3 Chroma Connect Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

Razer Synapse 3 Chroma Connect Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Razer Synapse 3. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Razer Chroma SDK installer. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the installer to delete arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-26373.

A local privilege escalation in the razer_elevation_service.exe in Razer Synapse 4 through 4.0.86.2502180127 allows a local attacker to escalate their privileges via a vulnerable COM interface in the target service.

Razer Synapse 2.20.15.1104 and earlier uses weak permissions for the CrashReporter directory, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse dbghelp.dll file.

Razer Synapse 2.20.15.1104 and earlier uses weak permissions for the Devices directory, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse (1) RazerConfigNative.dll or (2) RazerConfigNativeLOC.dll file.

rzpnk.sys in Razer Synapse 2.20.15.1104 allows local users to read and write to arbitrary memory locations, and consequently gain privileges, via a methodology involving a handle to \Device\PhysicalMemory, IOCTL 0x22A064, and ZwMapViewOfSection.

A specially crafted IOCTL can be issued to the rzpnk.sys driver in Razer Synapse 2.20.15.1104 that is forwarded to ZwOpenProcess allowing a handle to be opened to an arbitrary process.

Razer Synapse before 3.7.0830.081906 allows privilege escalation due to an unsafe installation path, improper privilege management, and improper certificate validation. Attackers can place malicious DLLs into %PROGRAMDATA%\Razer\Synapse3\Service\bin if they do so before the service is installed and if they deny write access for the SYSTEM user. Although the service will not start if the malicious DLLs are unsigned, it suffices to use self-signed DLLs. The validity of the DLL signatures is not checked. As a result, local Windows users can abuse the Razer driver installer to obtain administrative privileges on Windows.

Arbitrary File Delete vulnerability in Razer Central before v7.8.0.381 when handling files in the Accounts directory.

RazerCentralSerivce Unsafe Named Pipe Permission Escalation of Privilege Vulnerability

Improper Privilege Control in RazerCentralSerivce Named Pipe in Razer RazerCentral <=7.11.0.558 on Windows allows a malicious actor with local access to gain SYSTEM privilege via communicating with the named pipe as a low-privilege user and calling "AddModule" or "UninstallModules" command to execute arbitrary executable file.

RazerCentralService Unsafe Deserialization Escalation of Privilege

Improper Privilege Control in RazerCentralSerivce Named Pipe in Razer RazerCentral <=7.11.0.558 on Windows allows a malicious actor with local access to gain SYSTEM privilege via communicating with the named pipe as a low-privilege user and triggering an insecure .NET deserialization.

Razer Synapse through 3.7.1209.121307 allows privilege escalation due to an unsafe installation path and improper privilege management. Attackers can place DLLs into %PROGRAMDATA%\Razer\Synapse3\Service\bin if they do so before the service is installed and if they deny write access for the SYSTEM user. Although the service will not start if it detects malicious DLLs in this directory, attackers can exploit a race condition and replace a valid DLL (i.e., a copy of a legitimate Razer DLL) with a malicious DLL after the service has already checked the file. As a result, local Windows users can abuse the Razer driver installer to obtain administrative privileges on Windows.

A local file inclusion vulnerability in Razer Sila Gaming Router v2.0.441_api-2.0.418 allows attackers to read arbitrary files.

A command injection in the command parameter of Razer Sila Gaming Router v2.0.441_api-2.0.418 allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted POST request.

Razer Synapse before 3.7.0228.022817 allows privilege escalation because it relies on %PROGRAMDATA%\Razer\Synapse3\Service\bin even if %PROGRAMDATA%\Razer has been created by any unprivileged user before Synapse is installed. The unprivileged user may have placed Trojan horse DLLs there.

Multiple system services installed alongside the Razer Synapse 3 software suite perform privileged operations on entries within the Razer Chroma SDK subkey. These privileged operations consist of file name concatenation of a runtime log file that is used to store runtime log information. In other words, an attacker can create a file in an unintended directory (with some limitations).
