| Improper Privilege Management in uvdesk/community-skeleton |
| 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.

| Yubico ykman-gui (aka YubiKey Manager GUI) before 1.2.6 on Windows, when Edge is not used, allows privilege escalation because browser windows can open as Administrator. |
| An issue in Insurance Management System v.1.0.0 and before allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges via a crafted POST request to /admin/core/new_staff. |
| An issue in Reportico Web before v.8.1.0 allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary code and obtain sensitive information via the sessionid function. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in Astoundify Simple Registration for WooCommerce allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects Simple Registration for WooCommerce: from n/a through 1.5.6. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in Booking Ultra Pro allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects Booking Ultra Pro: from n/a through 1.1.12. |
| Keyfactor Command 10.5.x before 10.5.1 and 11.5.x before 11.5.1 allows SQL Injection which could result in code execution and escalation of privileges. |
| Nintendo Wii U OS 5.5.5 allows man-in-the-middle attackers to forge SSL certificates as though they came from a Root CA, because there is a secondary verification mechanism that only checks whether a CA is known and ignores the CA details and signature (and because * is accepted as a Common Name). |
|
All versions of EnterpriseDB Postgres Advanced Server (EPAS) from 15.0 prior to 15.7.0 and from 16.0 prior to 16.3.0 may allow users using edbldr to bypass role permissions from pg_read_server_files. This could allow low privilege users to read files to which they would not otherwise have access.
|
| CMService.exe creates the C:\\usr directory and subdirectories with insecure permissions, granting write access to all authenticated users. This allows attackers to replace configuration files (such as snmp.conf) or hijack DLLs to escalate privileges. |
| Hw64.sys in Marvin Test HW.exe before 5.0.5.0 allows unprivileged user-mode processes to arbitrarily map physical memory via IOCTL 0x9c406490 (for IoAllocateMdl, MmBuildMdlForNonPagedPool, and MmMapLockedPages), leading to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privilege escalation. |
| The mobile application (com.transsion.videocallenhancer) interface has improper permission control, which can lead to the risk of private file leakage. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in Revmakx Backup and Staging by WP Time Capsule allows Privilege Escalation, Authentication Bypass.This issue affects Backup and Staging by WP Time Capsule: from n/a through 1.22.20. |
| Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in WebAppick CTX Feed allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects CTX Feed: from n/a through 6.5.6. |
| The Homey Login Register plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.0. This is due to the plugin allowing users who are registering new accounts to set their own role. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to gain elevated privileges by creating an account with the administrator role. |
| Ariane Allegro Scenario Player through 2024-03-05, when Ariane Duo kiosk mode is used, allows physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information (such as hotel invoice content with PII), and potentially create unauthorized room keys, by entering a guest-search quote character and then accessing the underlying Windows OS. |
