Directory traversal vulnerability in Parallels Desktop for Mac version 20.2.2 (build 55879) affecting the PVMP package unpacking functionality. An authenticated local attacker with limited privileges can exploit this flaw to write arbitrary files to the system, potentially achieving privilege escalation with high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability requires local access and user interaction is not needed, making it a significant risk for multi-user or shared Mac environments.
Privilege escalation vulnerability in Parallels Desktop for Mac version 20.1.1 (build 55740) where the snapshot functionality allows a local attacker with user-level privileges to write arbitrary files via hard link exploitation of a root-owned process. An attacker can leverage this to escalate privileges from a normal user to root, potentially achieving full system compromise. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.8 (high severity) and requires local access with low complexity.
Privilege escalation vulnerability in Parallels Desktop for Mac version 20.1.1 (build 55740) affecting the Snapshot deletion functionality. A local attacker with standard user privileges can exploit a symlink race condition to manipulate root-owned snapshot files, escalating privileges to root. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.8 (high severity) with low attack complexity, and while specific KEV/EPSS data is not provided, the low complexity and local attack vector suggest moderate real-world exploitation probability.
Privilege escalation vulnerability in Parallels Desktop for Mac 20.1.1 that allows a local attacker with user-level privileges to gain root-level code execution through a hard link attack during virtual machine archive restoration. The prl_vmarchiver tool operates with root privileges during decompression and file restoration, enabling an attacker to redirect writes to arbitrary system files. This vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.8 (High) with low attack complexity, making it a practical privilege escalation vector for local users on affected systems.
