CVSS v3.1 |
| 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.

This vulnerability was discovered by Ceri Coburn at Pen Test Partners, who reported it responsibly to the vendor.

| Overview
The product specifies permissions for a security-critical resource in a way that allows that resource to be read or modified by unintended actors. (CWE-732)
Description
Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server prior to versions 10.2.0.2, including 9.3.x and 8.3.x, is installed with Karaf JMX beans enabled and accessible by default.
Impact
When the vulnerability is leveraged, a user with local execution privileges can access functionality exposed by Karaf beans contained in the product. |

| An issue in LOREX TECHNOLOGY INC com.lorexcorp.lorexping 1.4.22 allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information via the firmware update process. |
| A Credential Disclosure vulnerability exists where an administrator could extract the stored SMTP account credentials due to lack of encryption. |
| Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in Automatic Systems Maintenance SlimLane 29565_d74ecce0c1081d50546db573a499941b10799fb7 allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges via the FtpConfig.php component. |
| An issue in Automatic Systems Maintenance SlimLane 29565_d74ecce0c1081d50546db573a499941b10799fb7 allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information via the Racine & FileName parameters in the download-file.php component. |
| PixelYourSite - Your smart PIXEL (TAG) and API Manager 10.1.1.1 was found to be vulnerable. Unvalidated user input is used directly in an unserialize function in myapp/modules/facebook/facebook-server-a sync-task.php. |
| CWE-287: Improper Authentication vulnerability exists that could cause an Authentication Bypass when an
unauthorized user without permission rights has physical access to the EPAS-UI computer and is able to
reboot the workstation and interrupt the normal boot process. |
| CWE-20: Improper Input Validation vulnerability exists that could cause Denial-of-Service of the network
services running on the product when malicious IEC61850-MMS packets are sent to the device. The core
functionality of the breaker remains intact during the attack. |
| CWE-20: Improper Input Validation vulnerability exists that could cause Denial-of-Service of the
product when malicious ICMPV6 packets are sent to the device. |
| A stored Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting 3DPlay in 3DSwymer from Release 3DEXPERIENCE R2022x through Release 3DEXPERIENCE R2024x allows an attacker to execute arbitrary script code in user's browser session. |
| ServiceNow has addressed an authorization bypass vulnerability that was identified in the Washington release of the Now Platform. This vulnerability, if exploited, potentially could enable an authenticated user to access unauthorized data stored within the Now Platform that the user otherwise would not be entitled to access.
This issue is addressed in the listed patches and family release, which have been made available to hosted and self-hosted customers, as well as partners. |
| The standard user uses the run as function to start the MEAC applications with administrative privileges. To ensure that the system can startup on its own, the credentials of the administrator were stored. Consequently, the EPC2 user can execute any command with administrative privileges. This allows a privilege escalation to the administrative level. |
| An improper input neutralization vulnerability in the management web interface of the Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS® software enables a malicious authenticated read-write administrator to impersonate another legitimate authenticated PAN-OS administrator.
The attacker must have network access to the management web interface to exploit this issue. You greatly reduce the risk of this issue by restricting access to the management web interface to only trusted internal IP addresses according to our recommended critical deployment guidelines https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/community-blogs/tips-amp-tricks-how-to-secure-the-management-access-of-your-palo/ba-p/464431 . |
| Improper access control for some BigDL software maintained by Intel(R) before version 2.5.0 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via adjacent access. |
| A: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation vulnerability in SUSE rancher allows a malicious actor to perform a Stored XSS attack through the cluster description field.
This issue affects rancher: from 2.9.0 before 2.9.4. |
| 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. |
| Improper access control in some JAM STAPL Player software before version 2.6.1 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Active debug code vulnerability exists in Mesh Wi-Fi router RP562B firmware version v1.0.2 and earlier. If this vulnerability is exploited, a network-adjacent authenticated attacker may obtain or alter the settings of the device . |
