Privilege Escalation
Monthly
Privilege escalation in Intel Processors operating within Ring 0 environments - kernel, hypervisor, and bare-metal OS - allows an authorized attacker already holding high-privilege access to cross isolation boundaries and achieve high confidentiality and integrity impact on subsequent systems such as hypervisors or co-located virtual machines. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:L/AC:H/AT:P/PR:H/SC:H/SI:H) confirms the attack is local, high-complexity, and gated behind existing privileged access plus special internal knowledge of processor internals, significantly limiting the exploitable population. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing exist at time of analysis, making current real-world risk primarily theoretical but relevant to hardened multi-tenant and virtualized datacenter environments.
Deserialization of untrusted data in Intel Extension for PyTorch (IPEX) versions before 2.8.0 enables local privilege escalation when a victim user opens a maliciously crafted serialized artifact within an IPEX-dependent application. The vulnerability operates at Ring 3 (user-space) and yields low confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact with no subsequent system-level compromise. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing have been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Intel's Hardware-Aware-Automated-MachineLearning (NA) software before commit 45cd723 stems from an uncontrolled search path element (CWE-427) in its Ring 3 user-space application layer. An unprivileged local attacker who can write to a directory within the application's library or executable search path can plant a malicious artifact; when a high-privileged user subsequently runs the AutoML tool, the application loads the attacker-controlled file and executes code at the elevated privilege level. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, though the CVSS 4.0 score of 5.4 (Medium) reflects the attack requirements and required user interaction that constrain real-world exploitation.
Privilege escalation in Intel Performance Counter Monitor (PCM) before version tag 202604 allows a local authenticated attacker to gain elevated privileges via an untrusted search path (CWE-426) within Ring 3 user-space applications. The attack requires high complexity and passive interaction from a privileged user, producing full high-impact confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the vulnerable system. No public exploit code or active exploitation via CISA KEV has been identified at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation via uncontrolled search path (DLL/binary planting) affects Intel's Approximate Bayesian Inference Framework prior to commit #484c949. An attacker operating at Ring 3 (user application space) with high privileges who can manipulate the search path can cause a co-located privileged user to load a malicious binary, resulting in full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the vulnerable system. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Path traversal in Intel's gaudi-container-runtime before version 1.24.0 enables privilege escalation for locally authenticated users running workloads on Intel Gaudi AI accelerator hardware. The CWE-22 path traversal flaw resides in the Ring 3 userspace component of the runtime, allowing a low-privileged attacker to traverse directory boundaries and potentially gain elevated access with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; the CVSS 4.0 score of 5.4 reflects the local attack vector, required attack preconditions (AT:P), and passive user interaction requirement, which substantially reduce real-world exploitability despite the high per-system impact.
Privilege escalation in Intel Xeon 6 processors arises from improper handling of overlapping protected memory ranges when Intel Trust Domain Extensions (TDX) operate within System Management Mode (SMM). An adversary who has already achieved SMM-level access and combines that foothold with a high-complexity, knowledge-intensive attack can break the isolation guarantees that TDX is designed to enforce, achieving unauthorized reads and writes of confidential memory. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing are associated with this issue at time of analysis, but the high confidentiality and integrity impact to the vulnerable system makes it significant for confidential-computing deployments.
Privilege escalation in Intel Workload Services Framework software affects the Ring 3 user-application layer, where a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) allows an unprivileged process to gain elevated privileges when a concurrently active privileged user provides passive interaction. The attack is local, requires attack prerequisites to be met (AT:P per CVSS 4.0), and achieves full compromise of the vulnerable system's confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; this is a vendor-disclosed advisory via INTEL-SA-01467.
Privilege escalation in Intel's LLM-on-Ray framework before version 1.0 stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) within Ring 3 user-space components, allowing an attacker with high-privileged user access to escalate privileges on the local system. The attack requires local access, passive user interaction from a privileged user, and specific attack requirements (AT:P), but results in high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system with no subsequent system scope change. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in EquiTriton before commit f5ddbb5 arises from an uncontrolled search path element (CWE-427) within Ring 3 user-mode application components, allowing a local attacker operating under a high-privilege user context to substitute a malicious binary or library in a search path directory that EquiTriton resolves ahead of its legitimate target. Successful exploitation yields full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the vulnerable system while leaving downstream systems unaffected. No public exploit code has been identified and this CVE does not appear in the CISA KEV catalog at time of analysis; Intel disclosed the issue under advisory INTEL-SA-01473.
Privilege escalation in Intel(R) oneCCL Bindings for PyTorch before v2.8.0 stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) in Ring 3 user application space, enabling a local adversary - operating in conjunction with a high-privilege user through passive interaction - to escalate privileges with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. The CVSS 4.0 score of 5.4 reflects meaningful exploitation constraints: specific attack requirements must be present (AT:P), high privileges are already required (PR:H), and passive interaction from a privileged user is needed (UI:P). No public exploit code or CISA KEV active exploitation listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Intel AI Reference Models before v3.4.1 stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) within Ring 3 user-space applications, allowing unprivileged software to gain elevated access when a privileged user is passively present under specific deployment conditions. The vulnerability carries full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system, though scope is contained with no subsequent-system impact. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; Intel has issued a fix in version v3.4.1 per advisory INTEL-SA-01432.
Privilege escalation affects Intel's LLM Library for PyTorch operating within Ring 3 (user application space) due to a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693). An adversary with access to an unprivileged software context, combined with the presence of a privileged user and passive user interaction, can exploit this flaw locally to gain elevated privileges with high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, and the CVSS 4.0 score of 5.4 reflects the restrictive local access and high-privilege prerequisites that limit real-world exploitability.
Privilege escalation in Intel Neural Compressor software before v3.7 stems from improper input validation within Ring 3 (user application space), allowing a locally authenticated low-privileged user to elevate privileges on the affected host. The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms local access with low complexity, no special attack requirements, and no user interaction needed - meaning exploitation is straightforward once local access is established. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, and impact is bounded to the vulnerable system with no lateral scope change.
Privilege escalation in Intel Neural Compressor software before v3.6 stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) within the Ring 3 user-application layer. A local attacker operating with high privileges, in conjunction with specific attack requirements and passive user interaction, can exploit this flaw to elevate privileges with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. Intel has issued advisory INTEL-SA-01454 and released v3.6 as the remediated version; no public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Intel AI Containers before v0.4.0 exposes a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) within the Ring 3 user application layer, enabling a local attacker already holding high privileges to further escalate privileges with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. Exploitation requires passive user interaction and specific attack conditions (AT:P), substantially limiting the realistic attack population to multi-tenant AI container deployments where privileged users must be constrained. No public exploit code has been identified and this vulnerability does not appear in CISA KEV at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation in Intel PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software for Windows allows unprivileged local code execution by exploiting improper authentication within the device driver layer. An attacker with only local access and no required privileges can bypass authentication checks in the Ring-2 driver tier, ultimately achieving code execution that results in high confidentiality impact on the broader host system alongside low integrity and availability impacts. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Local privilege escalation in Intel Battery Life Diagnostic Tool Software before version 2.9.0 stems from an untrusted search path (CWE-426), enabling a malicious binary or DLL to be loaded in place of a legitimate dependency when the tool executes. An authenticated local attacker with write access to a directory in the application's search path can achieve full system compromise (confidentiality, integrity, and availability all rated High on the vulnerable system) by waiting for a legitimate user to passively trigger the tool. Intel has released a fix in version 2.9.0 via advisory INTEL-SA-01453; no public exploit or CISA KEV listing is present at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Intel's Cluster Management Toolkit for Kubernetes (CMK) before v0.8.5 allows a privileged local adversary to fully compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system by exploiting a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) within the Ring 3 user-application boundary. Exploitation requires a pre-established privileged local account, specific attack prerequisites (AT:P), and the occurrence of passive user interaction - a combination that substantially limits the exploitable population but results in complete system-level impact when conditions align. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in Intel TDX Guest software before version 0.3.1 stems from an incorrect comparison (CWE-697) within Ring 3 user application space, exploitable by a local attacker who already holds high system privileges. Impact is limited - low confidentiality, integrity, and availability degradation on the vulnerable guest system with no subsequent system impact - aligning with the CVSS 4.0 score of 4.6. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis; Intel has released a fix at version 0.3.1 via advisory INTEL-SA-01462.
Privilege escalation in Intel TDX Guest software before version 0.3.1 stems from an incorrect calculation (CWE-682) within Ring 3 user application code, enabling a local, high-privilege adversary to elevate privileges within a Trust Domain. The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms local access with high privileges required and low C/I/A impact on the vulnerable system, with no subsequent-system (host/hypervisor) impact. No public exploit exists and the vulnerability is absent from CISA KEV, placing real-world risk squarely in multi-tenant confidential computing scenarios where intra-guest privilege containment is a security objective.
Privilege escalation in Intel processor microcode stems from improper handling of overlap between protected memory ranges at the Ring 0 hypervisor privilege level, tracked as CVE-2026-20760 and EUVD-2026-56489. Exploitation requires local, low-privilege access to a system running an affected Intel processor, allowing an authorized adversary to escalate privileges or disrupt hypervisor availability without user interaction. Intel has published advisory INTEL-SA-01441 covering this issue; no active exploitation (CISA KEV) or public proof-of-concept has been identified at time of analysis, though the hypervisor-level attack surface warrants priority treatment in virtualized environments.
Privilege escalation in Intel's LLM Scaler software exposes systems to full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability within the affected host. The flaw stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) operating in Ring 3 (user-space applications), where an unprivileged software component can leverage a co-present privileged user session to bypass access controls and elevate privileges. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog; however, the high impact triad (C:H/I:H/A:H) warrants prompt patching on any system running Intel's LLM Scaler where privileged users operate.
Local privilege escalation and code execution in Intel PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software for Windows arises from an information disclosure flaw (CWE-200) within the Ring 2 device driver layer, exploitable by an unprivileged local user without authentication or user interaction. The vulnerable system itself suffers only low confidentiality impact, but a scope change into the driver subsystem produces high subsequent-system confidentiality impact alongside low integrity and availability impacts - consistent with a privilege escalation chain from user space into driver-controlled memory. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability has not been listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in Intel Extension for TensorFlow software before version 2.15.0.3 stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) operating at Ring 3 - the CPU user-application privilege boundary. A system software adversary holding high privileges can exploit this failure under specific local attack conditions with passive user interaction to achieve full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the vulnerable system. No active exploitation has been confirmed by CISA KEV and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Intel Xeon processor firmware stems from an always-incorrect control flow implementation (CWE-670) that allows a privileged system software adversary to escalate privileges under high-complexity local attack conditions. Exploitation yields subsequent-system impacts - high confidentiality and high integrity compromise - while leaving the vulnerable system itself unimpacted, consistent with a scope change into a higher-privilege domain such as an OS kernel or hypervisor. No active exploitation is confirmed by CISA KEV, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.
Stored cross-site scripting in ElkArte Forum 2.0 Beta 1 enables any registered member to persist malicious JavaScript in the cust_blurb and cust_locate profile fields, which render unescaped when administrators view affected profiles. The scope-changing nature of the flaw (CVSS S:C) means the payload executes within an administrator's browser session, creating a realistic path to session hijacking or privilege escalation. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the low barrier to exploitation - any registered account suffices - makes this a meaningful risk for forums with open registration.
Privilege escalation in the Axis Camera Application Platform (ACAP) framework on Axis OS exploits a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition during ACAP application installation. Exploitation is gated behind two explicit non-default conditions: the target device must have unsigned ACAP application installation enabled, and a high-privileged victim must be socially engineered into installing a malicious package. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vendor-assigned CVSS score of 5.1 (Medium) accurately reflects the high attack complexity and privilege prerequisites that substantially constrain real-world impact.
Privilege escalation in Axis OS affects all Axis network devices where unsigned ACAP application installation is permitted, allowing an attacker who tricks an administrator into installing a malicious ACAP app to gain elevated privileges on the device. The vulnerability stems from missing input validation in an ACAP configuration file (CWE-1287), enabling crafted configuration values to bypass intended privilege boundaries. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in the Axis Camera Application Platform (ACAP) framework within Axis OS exploits a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use race condition during application installation, allowing a malicious ACAP package to bypass integrity verification and gain elevated privileges on the device. Affected are Axis network cameras and IoT surveillance devices running all versions of Axis OS where unsigned ACAP application installation has been explicitly enabled. No public exploit code exists and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV; the combination of high attack complexity, administrative victim interaction, and a non-default prerequisite configuration materially limits real-world risk.
Privilege escalation in SAP S/4HANA's Reprocess Bank Statement Items component allows authenticated users to invoke processing rules that have not been explicitly shared with them, circumventing intended access controls. Affected versions span S4CORE releases 104 through 109, covering a broad swath of actively supported SAP S/4HANA deployments. The impact is confined to low-severity information disclosure - unauthorized rule access reveals restricted bank statement logic - with no integrity or availability consequences; no public exploit or active exploitation has been identified at the time of analysis.
CyberChef's client-side pretty-recipe parser freezes victim browser tabs via a crafted URL fragment containing large numbers of unmatched quote characters, triggering catastrophic backtracking in a synchronous global regular expression. Any user of CyberChef prior to 11.3.0 who opens a malicious #recipe= URL - whether shared in phishing, chat, or embedded in a page - is subject to a temporary denial-of-service condition. No code execution, data exfiltration, or privilege escalation is possible; impact is confined to browser tab availability. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation in systemd-homed enables a low-privileged, locally logged-in user whose account is managed by homed to be arbitrarily added to system groups they are not authorized to join. Successful exploitation, constrained by high attack complexity and a required user interaction step per the CVSS vector, can yield full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the local system. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability does not appear in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security 4 (StackRox Central) allows authenticated OIDC token holders to gain unauthorized role assignments through unanchored regular expression matching in the Machine-to-Machine token exchange subsystem. When administrators configure M2M role mappings, RHACS matches incoming OIDC claim values against configured patterns without regex anchors, meaning an attacker whose claim value is a superstring of a mapped pattern - for example, 'superadmin' matching a pattern intended only for 'admin' - receives elevated roles unintentionally. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at this time; the CVSS AC:H rating reflects a genuine complexity barrier requiring attacker knowledge of the target's role mapping configuration.
Traefik's BasicAuth middleware in versions 3.6.11-3.6.24 and 3.7.0-3.7.9 permits an authenticated low-privilege user to forge arbitrary backend identities via a singleflight key collision race condition. By concatenating their known valid password with a retrieved stored bcrypt hash, an attacker crafts a singleflight deduplication key identical to a legitimate in-flight request's key; the middleware returns the legitimate request's successful authentication result to the attacker's request, then propagates the attacker's chosen unconfigured username to the backend as a trusted identity. A fully working proof-of-concept achieving 25-of-25 successful identity forgeries under default bcrypt cost is publicly available in the GitHub security advisory; no CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in openclaw-cn (all versions up to 0.2.1) allows a remote attacker with low-level authentication to bypass the `isApprovedElevatedSender` privilege check in the auto-reply module and assume elevated sender permissions. A publicly disclosed proof-of-concept exploit exists on GitHub issue #564, and the project maintainer has not responded to the responsible disclosure report. No CISA KEV listing exists, but the low attack complexity combined with POC availability makes this a credible risk for any active deployment of the affected application.
Improper privilege management in NanoClaw (versions up to 2.0.64) allows authenticated remote attackers to abuse the `handleCreateAgent` function within the agent-to-agent creation module to escalate privileges beyond their authorization level. A public proof-of-concept exploit is available via a GitHub issue report, and the vendor has not responded to the coordinated disclosure, leaving deployments unpatched. No public exploit identified as actively exploited in CISA KEV, but the public POC and absence of a vendor patch materially elevate near-term exploitation risk.
Denial-of-service in Cisco IOS XE Software's web-based management interface (WebUI) allows an authenticated remote attacker holding only low-privilege credentials to render the management interface unresponsive by sending crafted input that bypasses input validation. The vulnerability spans an exceptionally broad version footprint - from 16.9.x through the 26.x release train - making patching scope significant for organizations running Cisco enterprise routing and switching infrastructure. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and this CVE is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, placing real-world urgency below its broad scope might suggest.
Stored cross-site scripting in Ghost CMS feature image captions enables any authenticated staff user to inject unsanitized HTML into the post revision history modal, hijacking the Ghost Admin session of another staff or administrator user who views that revision. Affects Ghost npm package versions v4.9.0 through v6.54.0. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and not listed in CISA KEV, but the privilege escalation potential - a lower-privileged staff member compromising a full administrator session - makes this higher-impact than the CVSS 4.3 score implies for multi-tenant or shared Ghost Admin environments.
CVE-2026-70443 is part of the Jenkins August 5, 2026 batch security advisory covering Jenkins core and multiple plugins. The provided source data does not include the specific vulnerability description for CVE-2026-70443 - the advisory text is truncated before reaching this CVE identifier (described CVEs end around CVE-2026-70435). The full advisory at https://www.jenkins.io/security/advisory/2026-08-05/ contains authoritative details. No active exploitation is confirmed (not listed in CISA KEV), and no EPSS or CVSS data was provided in the source intelligence.
Keycloak's LDAP storage provider allows delegated administrators to bypass configured search boundaries by supplying a crafted Distinguished Name (DN), exposing account information from unauthorized directory subtrees and triggering unintended user imports into Keycloak local storage. Affected deployments include Red Hat Build of Keycloak, Red Hat Single Sign-On 7, Red Hat Data Grid 8, and the JBoss EAP Expansion Pack. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis; exploitation is constrained to authenticated delegated administrators with access to the LDAP federation interface.
GNU tar's incremental restore path contains a TOCTOU race condition in dumpdir 'X' rename handling, allowing a local attacker with write access to a backed-up directory to redirect file operations outside the intended extraction root during a privileged restore. Successful exploitation can result in arbitrary file creation, rename, or overwrite - enabling privilege escalation on systems running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 through 10 and Red Hat Hardened Images. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, and no CISA KEV listing exists; the CVSS score of 4.4 reflects the constrained attack prerequisites including a required race window and administrator-initiated restore.
Privilege escalation to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM is achievable by any local, unprivileged user via Wellbia XIGNCODE3's kernel driver xhunter2.sys version 2026.6.1.192, due to missing access control on the IRP_MJ_WRITE command interface. Beyond SYSTEM-level execution, the flaw enables extraction of credentials from PPL-protected lsass.exe and termination of PPL-protected security processes such as EDR/AV agents, effectively disabling host defenses. No active exploitation is confirmed by CISA KEV, though the primary reference is a researcher blog post (blacksnufkin's 'Hunting the Hunter II') that strongly suggests PoC-grade research material exists.
Privilege escalation in MediaTek's geniezone component affects ten specific chipset models (MT8792, MT8883, MT8873, MT8893, MT8768, MT8796, MT8799, MT6991, MT8791T, MT8910) due to a missing permission check classified under CWE-1287. An attacker who has already obtained System-level privileges on an affected device can exploit this flaw to escalate further - potentially reaching kernel or TEE-adjacent privilege boundaries - without requiring any user interaction. No public exploit code exists and no active exploitation has been confirmed (EPSS 0.13%, 3rd percentile), positioning this as a chaining vulnerability relevant to targeted attacks rather than opportunistic mass exploitation.
Incorrect error handling in the MediaTek imgsensor (camera/image sensor) kernel driver across multiple MediaTek chipsets allows a local attacker who already holds System-level privilege to crash an application and potentially escalate to a higher privilege tier. Affected chipsets span eleven models including MT8395, MT8799, MT6895, MT6991, and MT8910, covering a broad range of mid-to-high-end Android-targeted SoCs. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and the EPSS score of 0.13% (3rd percentile) reflects low observed exploitation interest, though the post-exploitation utility of this flaw makes it relevant in chained attack scenarios.
Out-of-bounds write in MediaTek's HFRP component on the MT6993 chipset enables local privilege escalation beyond System-level access, confirmed via MediaTek's August 2026 security bulletin. The flaw stems from a missing bounds check (CWE-787), requiring an attacker who has already achieved System privilege to trigger further escalation - a post-compromise lateral movement primitive rather than an initial access vector. No public exploit code and no KEV listing have been identified; EPSS sits at the 3rd percentile, consistent with SSVC's 'exploitation: none' finding.
Out-of-bounds write in MediaTek's GeniZone Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) component enables local privilege escalation across 14 distinct MediaTek chipsets. An attacker who has already achieved System-level privilege on an affected Android device can exploit a missing bounds check to write outside intended memory boundaries within the secure enclave, gaining confidentiality and integrity access beyond what System privilege normally permits. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.13% (3rd percentile) reflects low observed exploitation probability; however, the pre-existing System privilege prerequisite substantially narrows the realistic attack surface.
Out-of-bounds write in MediaTek's GenieZone hypervisor component enables local privilege escalation beyond System-level access on a wide range of MediaTek mobile chipsets. Exploitation is constrained to attackers who have already obtained System privileges, making this a secondary step in a multi-stage attack chain rather than an initial foothold technique. No public exploit code exists and EPSS of 0.13% (3rd percentile) confirms negligible real-world exploitation activity; no CISA KEV listing at time of analysis.
Out-of-bounds write in the MediaTek display driver allows a local attacker who has already obtained System-level privilege to further escalate privileges on affected Android devices. The vulnerability stems from a missing bounds check (CWE-787) in display subsystem code across at least ten MediaTek chipsets, including MT8910, MT8188, MT8799, and MT6991 among others. No public exploit or active exploitation (CISA KEV) is identified at time of analysis; EPSS score of 0.14% (4th percentile) and SSVC exploitation rating of 'none' both confirm this remains an undemonstrated threat as of the August 2026 advisory.
Local privilege escalation in MediaTek's display subsystem affects 17 chipset variants used in Android devices, allowing an attacker who has already obtained System-level privilege to exploit a missing bounds check (CWE-787) and write out of bounds in display memory, achieving high confidentiality and integrity impact. The CVSS vector (PR:H/AV:L) confirms this is not an initial-access vector - it is a post-compromise escalation step requiring pre-existing System privilege. No public exploit has been identified, EPSS stands at 0.14% (4th percentile), and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, consistent with SSVC's exploitation status of 'none.'
Local privilege escalation in the MediaTek display subsystem affects 17 distinct chipsets including MT6991, MT8768, MT8678, and MT8799, among others. An attacker who has already obtained System-level privilege can exploit a race condition (CWE-367) in the display driver to achieve further privilege escalation, resulting in high confidentiality and integrity impact on the device. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.11% (2nd percentile) reflects minimal observed exploitation probability; MediaTek has released patch ALPS11019183 via its August 2026 Product Security Bulletin.
Local privilege escalation in the MediaTek display driver allows an attacker who already holds System-level privileges to further escalate via a use-after-free memory corruption condition, potentially achieving kernel-level access. Seventeen MediaTek SoC models used across Android devices are affected, disclosed in MediaTek's August 2026 security bulletin with Patch ID ALPS11019722. No public exploit code exists and EPSS at 0.14% (4th percentile) confirms negligible current exploitation probability; this vulnerability is not in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in MediaTek's trusted_mem subsystem affects nine specific chipset models (MT8365, MT8186, MT8188, MT8195, MT8370, MT8371, MT8390, MT8391, MT8395) through a write-what-where condition caused by improper input validation. An attacker who has already obtained System-level privilege can leverage this flaw to escalate further, potentially compromising the trusted memory environment. No public exploit code has been identified and EPSS places exploitation probability at 0.14% (4th percentile), indicating this is currently a low-exploitation-pressure issue despite its local privilege escalation potential.
Local privilege escalation in MediaTek's apusys AI Processing Unit subsystem on MT8196 and MT8366 chipsets allows an attacker already holding System-level privileges to further escalate by exploiting a confused deputy flaw - likely realized through an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) - achieving high confidentiality and integrity impact on the vulnerable system. Disclosed by MediaTek in their August 2026 Product Security Bulletin, a vendor patch is available under Patch ID AUTO00833804. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and an EPSS of 0.14% at the 4th percentile reflects negligible probability of widespread exploitation.
Privilege escalation in MediaTek's AI Processing Unit Subsystem (apusys) driver allows a local attacker already holding System-level privileges on devices equipped with MT8366, MT8196, or MT8195 chipsets to escalate further, achieving high-impact access to confidential data and system integrity. The root cause is a missing bounds check (CWE-749) in an exposed driver function, patched under MediaTek ID AUTO00837766 in the August 2026 security bulletin. No public exploit code has been identified, and the EPSS score of 0.14% (4th percentile) confirms very low current exploitation probability.
Secure boot heap buffer overflow in MediaTek chipsets MT2737, MT6880, MT6890, and MT6990 enables local privilege escalation by an attacker with physical device access. The vulnerability exists at the pre-OS firmware layer, where a write beyond allocated heap boundaries can corrupt boot verification logic and permit execution of unsigned or attacker-controlled code. No active exploitation has been confirmed - the vulnerability is absent from CISA KEV, and the EPSS score of 0.16% (6th percentile) is consistent with the hard physical access prerequisite sharply limiting opportunistic exploitation.
Out-of-bounds write in the MediaTek HEVC video decoder enables further privilege escalation on devices running MT6761, MT8766, and MT8768 chipsets. The flaw, rooted in an integer overflow during HEVC bitstream processing, can be triggered without user interaction but only by an actor who already holds System-level privilege on the device. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and EPSS sits at 0.18% (8th percentile), consistent with SSVC's 'Exploitation: none' assessment - though SSVC rates Technical Impact as total, reflecting the severity of what a successful second-stage exploit could achieve.
Privilege escalation in Capsule (Kubernetes multi-tenancy framework) versions 0.13.0-0.13.7 allows authenticated Tenant Owners to break out of tenant isolation and create cluster-scoped Kubernetes resources - including ClusterRole, ClusterRoleBinding, and ValidatingWebhookConfiguration - through the cluster-admin controller client. This is an incomplete fix of CVE-2026-22872: the TenantResource RawItems and Generators code paths (handleRawItem, handleGeneratorItem) were never updated to enforce the same cluster-scoped resource rejection guards applied to NamespacedItems. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; vendor-released patch v0.13.8 is available.
Privilege escalation in Google Chrome Enterprise on macOS allows a local attacker with physical device access to bypass enterprise policy controls and gain elevated privileges. Affected are all Chrome versions prior to 151.0.7922.72 in managed Enterprise deployments on Mac. The attack requires physical presence at the target device, substantially limiting the threat surface, though the confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact is rated high once exploited. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Quick.Cart via hard-coded, plaintext admin credentials stored in a configuration file allows local attackers with file system access to retrieve authentication details and gain administrative control. The vendor considers exploitation unlikely and has not released a fix; all versions are believed vulnerable, with version 6.7 confirmed. No public exploit or active exploitation has been reported.
Local information disclosure in accountsservice on Red Hat Enterprise Linux allows systemd-homed users to read arbitrary files via the SetIconFile handler. A proof-of-concept exists, but exploitation requires a local account managed by systemd-homed, limiting impact
Privilege escalation in OWASP DefectDojo 2.59.0 exposes authenticated non-superusers to flip the is_staff flag on any account - including their own - through the UserSerializer in the v2 API, bypassing DefectDojo's role-based access controls and granting Django admin access. Version 2.59.0 was an accidental release and has been pulled; patched releases 2.58.3 and 3.0.0 exist. Publicly available exploit code is acknowledged (CVSS 4.0 E:P), and no special preconditions beyond a valid authenticated session with delegated user-management permissions are required.
Symlink following in HuggingFace Datasets through version 5.00 allows local low-privileged attackers to redirect archive extraction to arbitrary filesystem locations by pre-planting symlinks at predictable output paths in the shared cache directory. When a higher-privileged user or automated service subsequently triggers Extractor.extract(), the library writes archive contents through the attacker-controlled symlink, enabling overwrite of sensitive system files and potential privilege escalation or code execution. A publicly available exploit exists and an upstream fix is available via commit ad2d853, though no confirmed tagged release version has been independently verified.
Privilege escalation in Hikvision DS-2CD series IP cameras allows an SSH-authenticated attacker to gain full administrative control of the device by exploiting incorrect permission allocation in the device firmware. The vulnerability requires prior SSH authentication, making it an insider or credential-theft-dependent threat rather than an unauthenticated remote attack. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis, but successful exploitation delivers complete confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the affected camera.
Oracle Lease and Finance Management within Oracle E-Business Suite (versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) exposes its Lease Authoring component to exploitation by low-privileged, network-accessible attackers over HTTP, resulting in partial confidentiality loss, unauthorized data manipulation, and a partial denial of service. The vulnerability is classified as easily exploitable with no user interaction required, making it accessible to any authenticated low-privilege user who can reach the application over the network. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
Full system takeover is achievable in Oracle Agile Product Lifecycle Management for Process 6.2.4 via the Data Import component, exploitable by a high-privileged attacker with local infrastructure access. Oracle classifies this as 'easily exploitable,' resulting in complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability despite the constrained attack surface. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, limiting immediate real-world risk to insider threat and post-compromise escalation scenarios.
Oracle Product Lifecycle Analytics 3.6.1 exposes a network-exploitable flaw in its Installation Issues component, allowing a high-privileged attacker to achieve full confidentiality and integrity compromise of all accessible application data alongside partial service disruption via HTTP. The 'Installation Issues' component designation and the 'Authentication Bypass' intelligence tag together suggest the flaw may reside in insecure post-installation artifacts, exposed setup endpoints, or improperly secured administrative interfaces left accessible after deployment. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
Unauthorized data access and manipulation in Oracle iRecruitment (E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15) is achievable by any low-privileged attacker with network HTTP access, requiring no user interaction. The 'Authentication Bypass' tag from EUVD suggests the flaw likely allows an authenticated user to circumvent authorization controls within the Install/Upgrade component, gaining read and write access to recruitment data beyond their assigned permissions. No active exploitation is confirmed (not in CISA KEV) and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, though the low attack complexity makes this straightforward for any authenticated insider or compromised account.
Full takeover of Oracle Inventory Management (E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15) is achievable by a high-privileged attacker with local infrastructure access exploiting a flaw in the Internal Operations component. The CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:H/PR:H) places this firmly in the category of post-compromise or insider-threat scenarios rather than remote opportunistic attacks, yet the confirmed C:H/I:H/A:H impact means a successful exploitation yields complete control of the affected instance. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; Oracle addressed this in the July 2026 Critical Patch Update.
Oracle Time and Labor (Internal Operations component) in E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 exposes a difficult-to-exploit flaw that allows a high-privileged, network-authenticated attacker operating over HTTP to gain complete read access to all Time and Labor data and limited write access (insert, update, delete), with scope change implications affecting additional Oracle EBS components. Tagged as an authentication bypass by ENISA EUVD intelligence, this conflict with the CVSS PR:H requirement warrants investigative scrutiny - it may indicate a secondary authorization bypass rather than a full authentication bypass. No public exploit has been identified and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Cross-product data exposure in Oracle Transportation Execution (E-Business Suite 12.2.3-12.2.15) allows an authenticated low-privileged attacker over HTTP to read and modify a subset of Transportation data while also impacting additional EBS products due to a scope change. The attack requires victim interaction, suggesting a client-side injection vector (consistent with the 'Authentication Bypass' tag and scope change in the CVSS vector), where attacker-controlled content is rendered by another user. Disclosed in Oracle's July 2026 Critical Patch Update with no confirmed public exploit or CISA KEV listing at time of analysis.
Oracle Labor Distribution, an Internal Operations component of Oracle E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15, permits a high-privileged local attacker to compromise data integrity by creating, deleting, or modifying critical application data. Despite carrying an 'Authentication Bypass' tag in available intelligence, the CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:H/PR:H) constrains exploitation to actors who already possess elevated logon access to the underlying infrastructure - suggesting an internal authorization bypass rather than a full authentication circumvention. No public exploit code exists and no active exploitation has been identified; this was disclosed as part of Oracle's Critical Patch Update for July 2026.
Oracle Order Entry in E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 exposes a low-severity local privilege vulnerability in its Internal Operations component, allowing a high-privileged local attacker to perform unauthorized data manipulation and cause partial service disruption. The attack requires physical or logical access to the infrastructure hosting the application and an already-elevated account, significantly constraining real-world exploitability. No public exploit code exists and this vulnerability has not been added to the CISA KEV catalog at the time of analysis.
Full takeover of Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database 26.1.1.1.0 is achievable by a high-privileged attacker with local logon access to the infrastructure through a flaw in the Kubernetes Operator component. The attack requires no user interaction and is characterized by Oracle as 'easily exploitable,' resulting in complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Unauthorized data disclosure in Oracle Access Manager's Authentication Engine allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read a subset of OAM-accessible data over HTTP. Affected versions are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 of Oracle Fusion Middleware's OAM component. Tagged as an Authentication Bypass, the flaw carries a CVSS 5.3 (Medium) rating with low confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability consequences; no public exploit or KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Full takeover of Oracle MySQL Server and MySQL Cluster is possible through a local, high-complexity vulnerability in the Clone Plugin component, affecting MySQL Server 8.4.0-8.4.10 and 9.7.0-9.7.1, and MySQL Cluster 8.0.0-8.0.47, 8.4.0-8.4.10, and 9.7.0-9.7.1. Exploitation requires an attacker with high privileges and local logon access to the host infrastructure where MySQL executes, under difficult-to-achieve conditions, limiting realistic risk despite the full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing have been identified at time of analysis, and Oracle disclosed this via the July 2026 Critical Patch Update.
Oracle VM VirtualBox 7.2.12 contains a Core component vulnerability exploitable by high-privileged local attackers that produces a scope change, potentially compromising systems beyond VirtualBox itself. Successful exploitation yields complete confidentiality loss of all VirtualBox-accessible data and a partial denial of service, making this an isolation-breach risk in multi-tenant or shared virtualization environments. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the AC:H rating signals difficult exploitation, but the scope change (S:C) elevates real-world concern for environments where VirtualBox hosts sensitive guest workloads.
LFS deploy-key privilege escalation in Gitea (< 1.27.0) allows a holder of a write deploy key for any single repository owned by a victim to exfiltrate LFS objects from all private repositories that victim owns. The flaw originates in `routers/private/serv.go:275`, where Gitea embeds `repo.OwnerID` as the JWT `UserID` for deploy-key SSH sessions, causing the LFS batch handler at `services/lfs/server.go:268` to evaluate cross-repository authorization as if the repository owner - not the deploy key - were the requesting principal. If the victim is a Gitea site administrator, an unfiltered query in `models/git/lfs.go:226` exposes every LFS object on the entire instance. A public end-to-end PoC (poc.sh) is attached to the GitHub advisory; no CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Eclipse hawkBit's Direct Device Integration (DDI) Controller allows any authenticated device to download firmware artifacts beyond those explicitly assigned to it, within the same tenant. The flaw - rooted in missing object-level authorization (CWE-284/CWE-862) - means a valid device credential is sufficient to access arbitrary firmware artifacts belonging to other devices in the same tenant, not just the device's own assigned updates. A secondary enumeration weakness in the software modules listing endpoint compounds the issue by enabling targeted discovery of available artifacts. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and no CISA KEV listing is present.
Privilege escalation in rConfig before 8.2.8 allows any authenticated low-privilege user to self-assign or assign the Admin role to arbitrary accounts via a missing allowlist and absent authorization check in the Users API. The StoreUserRequest handler accepts a caller-supplied role field without validating it against permitted values and without verifying the requesting account already holds Admin status, enabling direct mass-assignment of the Admin role to any user model during creation or profile updates. No public exploit code has been identified and CISA KEV listing is absent; a vendor-released patch is available in version 8.2.8.
Privilege escalation via second-order SurrealQL injection in SurrealDB before 2.0.5, 2.1.5, and 2.2.2 lets an authenticated OWNER or EDITOR user embed malicious SurrealQL inside unescaped table or field names that executes when a higher-privileged operator re-imports the CLI-exported backup, yielding root-level takeover of the instance. Reported by VulnCheck and discovered during a cure53 audit, it also enables a universal second-order injection against co-tenanted applications that let end users define custom tables or fields, even when query parameters are otherwise sanitized. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the vendor and cure53 both rate the impact Critical (CVSS 4.0 base 9.4).
Insecure file permissions on the HCL DFMPro (for CATIA), DFXAnalytics, and DFXServer installer executables allow any locally authenticated non-administrative user to overwrite or replace those binaries with malicious code. When a privileged user subsequently runs the tampered installer - during installation, upgrade, or reinstallation - the attacker's binary executes in the elevated context, completing a local privilege escalation. No public exploit code has been identified and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV; however, the vendor-reported CVSS 3.3 score materially understates the potential impact of a successful exploitation scenario.
Full SYSTEM-level code execution in Broadcom's Symantec IT Management Suite (ITMS) 8.7.3 is reachable by any non-administrator interactive user via a DCOM and Windows Task Scheduler logic chain, requiring no network access and no memory corruption. The attack is confined to the local host, meaning a standard user account with an interactive session on the ITMS server is sufficient to achieve unrestricted SYSTEM privileges. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, though Broadcom's advisory carries the highest urgency rating (U:Red) and the CVSS 4.0 supplemental metric AU:Y indicates the exploitation steps can be automated once understood.
Local privilege escalation via a misconfigured WMI provider in Broadcom's Symantec IT Management Suite (Altiris) exposes SYSTEM-readable files to any local standard user. The AltirisAgent_Stream WMI class fails to re-impersonate the calling user when servicing queries, reverting to the LocalSystem context instead - allowing unprivileged local users to bypass filesystem ACLs and read files that are restricted to SYSTEM or Administrator accounts, including configuration files, service logs, and stored secrets. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, though the technique is mechanically straightforward for any authenticated local user; the Broadcom advisory (SA 37995) is the authoritative disclosure source.
Unauthenticated path traversal in Nuclio Dashboard's function build API allows arbitrary file write as root inside the Dashboard container. The `spec.handler` field accepts unsanitized module names containing `../` sequences, which Go's `path.Join`/`path.Clean` resolves to escape the build temp directory; the resulting path is passed to `os.WriteFile` running as `uid=0`. Versions up to and including 1.15.27 are affected; a full working proof-of-concept has been publicly disclosed, though no confirmed active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in BunkerWeb's UI and API allows a low-privileged authenticated user to inject attacker-controlled Datalog facts into signed Biscuit authorization tokens by manipulating the HTTP Host header, which was interpolated directly into the token builder string without parameterization. Affected are BunkerWeb open-source versions prior to 1.6.12 and BunkerWeb PRO prior to 0.57. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the public commit diff fully documents the injection mechanism, making reproduction straightforward for any authenticated low-privileged account holder.
Privilege-free process termination in OPSWAT AppRemover Driver (ardrv.sys v2017.10.02.1551 and earlier) allows any locally authenticated user to kill arbitrary processes - including endpoint security tools - by sending crafted requests to IOCTL handler 0x2420031 without any privilege validation. A public proof-of-concept is available on GitHub (redteamfortress/CVE-2026-36425), making this immediately reproducible by insider threats or post-compromise attackers seeking to disable defenses. No active exploitation has been confirmed in CISA KEV, but the defense-evasion potential elevates operational priority in environments running OPSWAT's OESIS Framework.
Stale render context retention in ViewComponent::Base allows lower-privileged users to receive privileged UI from a prior admin render when component instances are reused across requests, tenants, or threads. Affected versions 4.0.0 through 4.11.x of the rubygems/view_component package fail to reset request-scoped instance variables between render_in calls, enabling cross-user authorization bypass, stale Host header injection into generated URLs, slot child context leakage, and cross-thread context corruption. A detailed publicly available proof-of-concept confirms all four impact vectors; no KEV listing is present, but the exploitability in realistic shared-registry patterns is directly demonstrated.
Improper privilege management in TDengine Cloud DB prior to 3.4.1.15 allows an authenticated Data Reader admin_user to execute `create udf` (user-defined function) commands that should be restricted to higher-privilege roles. While the same role is correctly denied `show dnodes` and `create user`, the UDF creation permission was left ungated, creating a privilege escalation path within the database engine. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE has not been added to the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM is achievable on Windows systems hosting the Pegatron Tdelo64.sys kernel-mode driver, which exposes the \\.\TdeIo device interface without enforcing caller privilege checks or validating user-supplied kernel memory addresses in its IOCTL dispatcher. Any local user can open the device interface and send crafted IOCTL requests to perform arbitrary kernel memory read and write operations, enabling full system compromise including credential theft and security product bypass. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; the vulnerability was reported to CERT/CC (VU#529388), and the provided CVSS score of 6.2 materially understates the real-world impact given the described kernel write capability.
Privilege escalation in Intel Processors operating within Ring 0 environments - kernel, hypervisor, and bare-metal OS - allows an authorized attacker already holding high-privilege access to cross isolation boundaries and achieve high confidentiality and integrity impact on subsequent systems such as hypervisors or co-located virtual machines. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:L/AC:H/AT:P/PR:H/SC:H/SI:H) confirms the attack is local, high-complexity, and gated behind existing privileged access plus special internal knowledge of processor internals, significantly limiting the exploitable population. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing exist at time of analysis, making current real-world risk primarily theoretical but relevant to hardened multi-tenant and virtualized datacenter environments.
Deserialization of untrusted data in Intel Extension for PyTorch (IPEX) versions before 2.8.0 enables local privilege escalation when a victim user opens a maliciously crafted serialized artifact within an IPEX-dependent application. The vulnerability operates at Ring 3 (user-space) and yields low confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact with no subsequent system-level compromise. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing have been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Intel's Hardware-Aware-Automated-MachineLearning (NA) software before commit 45cd723 stems from an uncontrolled search path element (CWE-427) in its Ring 3 user-space application layer. An unprivileged local attacker who can write to a directory within the application's library or executable search path can plant a malicious artifact; when a high-privileged user subsequently runs the AutoML tool, the application loads the attacker-controlled file and executes code at the elevated privilege level. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, though the CVSS 4.0 score of 5.4 (Medium) reflects the attack requirements and required user interaction that constrain real-world exploitation.
Privilege escalation in Intel Performance Counter Monitor (PCM) before version tag 202604 allows a local authenticated attacker to gain elevated privileges via an untrusted search path (CWE-426) within Ring 3 user-space applications. The attack requires high complexity and passive interaction from a privileged user, producing full high-impact confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the vulnerable system. No public exploit code or active exploitation via CISA KEV has been identified at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation via uncontrolled search path (DLL/binary planting) affects Intel's Approximate Bayesian Inference Framework prior to commit #484c949. An attacker operating at Ring 3 (user application space) with high privileges who can manipulate the search path can cause a co-located privileged user to load a malicious binary, resulting in full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the vulnerable system. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Path traversal in Intel's gaudi-container-runtime before version 1.24.0 enables privilege escalation for locally authenticated users running workloads on Intel Gaudi AI accelerator hardware. The CWE-22 path traversal flaw resides in the Ring 3 userspace component of the runtime, allowing a low-privileged attacker to traverse directory boundaries and potentially gain elevated access with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; the CVSS 4.0 score of 5.4 reflects the local attack vector, required attack preconditions (AT:P), and passive user interaction requirement, which substantially reduce real-world exploitability despite the high per-system impact.
Privilege escalation in Intel Xeon 6 processors arises from improper handling of overlapping protected memory ranges when Intel Trust Domain Extensions (TDX) operate within System Management Mode (SMM). An adversary who has already achieved SMM-level access and combines that foothold with a high-complexity, knowledge-intensive attack can break the isolation guarantees that TDX is designed to enforce, achieving unauthorized reads and writes of confidential memory. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing are associated with this issue at time of analysis, but the high confidentiality and integrity impact to the vulnerable system makes it significant for confidential-computing deployments.
Privilege escalation in Intel Workload Services Framework software affects the Ring 3 user-application layer, where a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) allows an unprivileged process to gain elevated privileges when a concurrently active privileged user provides passive interaction. The attack is local, requires attack prerequisites to be met (AT:P per CVSS 4.0), and achieves full compromise of the vulnerable system's confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; this is a vendor-disclosed advisory via INTEL-SA-01467.
Privilege escalation in Intel's LLM-on-Ray framework before version 1.0 stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) within Ring 3 user-space components, allowing an attacker with high-privileged user access to escalate privileges on the local system. The attack requires local access, passive user interaction from a privileged user, and specific attack requirements (AT:P), but results in high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system with no subsequent system scope change. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in EquiTriton before commit f5ddbb5 arises from an uncontrolled search path element (CWE-427) within Ring 3 user-mode application components, allowing a local attacker operating under a high-privilege user context to substitute a malicious binary or library in a search path directory that EquiTriton resolves ahead of its legitimate target. Successful exploitation yields full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the vulnerable system while leaving downstream systems unaffected. No public exploit code has been identified and this CVE does not appear in the CISA KEV catalog at time of analysis; Intel disclosed the issue under advisory INTEL-SA-01473.
Privilege escalation in Intel(R) oneCCL Bindings for PyTorch before v2.8.0 stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) in Ring 3 user application space, enabling a local adversary - operating in conjunction with a high-privilege user through passive interaction - to escalate privileges with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. The CVSS 4.0 score of 5.4 reflects meaningful exploitation constraints: specific attack requirements must be present (AT:P), high privileges are already required (PR:H), and passive interaction from a privileged user is needed (UI:P). No public exploit code or CISA KEV active exploitation listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Intel AI Reference Models before v3.4.1 stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) within Ring 3 user-space applications, allowing unprivileged software to gain elevated access when a privileged user is passively present under specific deployment conditions. The vulnerability carries full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system, though scope is contained with no subsequent-system impact. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; Intel has issued a fix in version v3.4.1 per advisory INTEL-SA-01432.
Privilege escalation affects Intel's LLM Library for PyTorch operating within Ring 3 (user application space) due to a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693). An adversary with access to an unprivileged software context, combined with the presence of a privileged user and passive user interaction, can exploit this flaw locally to gain elevated privileges with high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, and the CVSS 4.0 score of 5.4 reflects the restrictive local access and high-privilege prerequisites that limit real-world exploitability.
Privilege escalation in Intel Neural Compressor software before v3.7 stems from improper input validation within Ring 3 (user application space), allowing a locally authenticated low-privileged user to elevate privileges on the affected host. The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms local access with low complexity, no special attack requirements, and no user interaction needed - meaning exploitation is straightforward once local access is established. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, and impact is bounded to the vulnerable system with no lateral scope change.
Privilege escalation in Intel Neural Compressor software before v3.6 stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) within the Ring 3 user-application layer. A local attacker operating with high privileges, in conjunction with specific attack requirements and passive user interaction, can exploit this flaw to elevate privileges with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. Intel has issued advisory INTEL-SA-01454 and released v3.6 as the remediated version; no public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Intel AI Containers before v0.4.0 exposes a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) within the Ring 3 user application layer, enabling a local attacker already holding high privileges to further escalate privileges with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. Exploitation requires passive user interaction and specific attack conditions (AT:P), substantially limiting the realistic attack population to multi-tenant AI container deployments where privileged users must be constrained. No public exploit code has been identified and this vulnerability does not appear in CISA KEV at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation in Intel PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software for Windows allows unprivileged local code execution by exploiting improper authentication within the device driver layer. An attacker with only local access and no required privileges can bypass authentication checks in the Ring-2 driver tier, ultimately achieving code execution that results in high confidentiality impact on the broader host system alongside low integrity and availability impacts. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Local privilege escalation in Intel Battery Life Diagnostic Tool Software before version 2.9.0 stems from an untrusted search path (CWE-426), enabling a malicious binary or DLL to be loaded in place of a legitimate dependency when the tool executes. An authenticated local attacker with write access to a directory in the application's search path can achieve full system compromise (confidentiality, integrity, and availability all rated High on the vulnerable system) by waiting for a legitimate user to passively trigger the tool. Intel has released a fix in version 2.9.0 via advisory INTEL-SA-01453; no public exploit or CISA KEV listing is present at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Intel's Cluster Management Toolkit for Kubernetes (CMK) before v0.8.5 allows a privileged local adversary to fully compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system by exploiting a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) within the Ring 3 user-application boundary. Exploitation requires a pre-established privileged local account, specific attack prerequisites (AT:P), and the occurrence of passive user interaction - a combination that substantially limits the exploitable population but results in complete system-level impact when conditions align. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in Intel TDX Guest software before version 0.3.1 stems from an incorrect comparison (CWE-697) within Ring 3 user application space, exploitable by a local attacker who already holds high system privileges. Impact is limited - low confidentiality, integrity, and availability degradation on the vulnerable guest system with no subsequent system impact - aligning with the CVSS 4.0 score of 4.6. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis; Intel has released a fix at version 0.3.1 via advisory INTEL-SA-01462.
Privilege escalation in Intel TDX Guest software before version 0.3.1 stems from an incorrect calculation (CWE-682) within Ring 3 user application code, enabling a local, high-privilege adversary to elevate privileges within a Trust Domain. The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms local access with high privileges required and low C/I/A impact on the vulnerable system, with no subsequent-system (host/hypervisor) impact. No public exploit exists and the vulnerability is absent from CISA KEV, placing real-world risk squarely in multi-tenant confidential computing scenarios where intra-guest privilege containment is a security objective.
Privilege escalation in Intel processor microcode stems from improper handling of overlap between protected memory ranges at the Ring 0 hypervisor privilege level, tracked as CVE-2026-20760 and EUVD-2026-56489. Exploitation requires local, low-privilege access to a system running an affected Intel processor, allowing an authorized adversary to escalate privileges or disrupt hypervisor availability without user interaction. Intel has published advisory INTEL-SA-01441 covering this issue; no active exploitation (CISA KEV) or public proof-of-concept has been identified at time of analysis, though the hypervisor-level attack surface warrants priority treatment in virtualized environments.
Privilege escalation in Intel's LLM Scaler software exposes systems to full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability within the affected host. The flaw stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) operating in Ring 3 (user-space applications), where an unprivileged software component can leverage a co-present privileged user session to bypass access controls and elevate privileges. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog; however, the high impact triad (C:H/I:H/A:H) warrants prompt patching on any system running Intel's LLM Scaler where privileged users operate.
Local privilege escalation and code execution in Intel PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software for Windows arises from an information disclosure flaw (CWE-200) within the Ring 2 device driver layer, exploitable by an unprivileged local user without authentication or user interaction. The vulnerable system itself suffers only low confidentiality impact, but a scope change into the driver subsystem produces high subsequent-system confidentiality impact alongside low integrity and availability impacts - consistent with a privilege escalation chain from user space into driver-controlled memory. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability has not been listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in Intel Extension for TensorFlow software before version 2.15.0.3 stems from a protection mechanism failure (CWE-693) operating at Ring 3 - the CPU user-application privilege boundary. A system software adversary holding high privileges can exploit this failure under specific local attack conditions with passive user interaction to achieve full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the vulnerable system. No active exploitation has been confirmed by CISA KEV and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Intel Xeon processor firmware stems from an always-incorrect control flow implementation (CWE-670) that allows a privileged system software adversary to escalate privileges under high-complexity local attack conditions. Exploitation yields subsequent-system impacts - high confidentiality and high integrity compromise - while leaving the vulnerable system itself unimpacted, consistent with a scope change into a higher-privilege domain such as an OS kernel or hypervisor. No active exploitation is confirmed by CISA KEV, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.
Stored cross-site scripting in ElkArte Forum 2.0 Beta 1 enables any registered member to persist malicious JavaScript in the cust_blurb and cust_locate profile fields, which render unescaped when administrators view affected profiles. The scope-changing nature of the flaw (CVSS S:C) means the payload executes within an administrator's browser session, creating a realistic path to session hijacking or privilege escalation. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the low barrier to exploitation - any registered account suffices - makes this a meaningful risk for forums with open registration.
Privilege escalation in the Axis Camera Application Platform (ACAP) framework on Axis OS exploits a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition during ACAP application installation. Exploitation is gated behind two explicit non-default conditions: the target device must have unsigned ACAP application installation enabled, and a high-privileged victim must be socially engineered into installing a malicious package. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vendor-assigned CVSS score of 5.1 (Medium) accurately reflects the high attack complexity and privilege prerequisites that substantially constrain real-world impact.
Privilege escalation in Axis OS affects all Axis network devices where unsigned ACAP application installation is permitted, allowing an attacker who tricks an administrator into installing a malicious ACAP app to gain elevated privileges on the device. The vulnerability stems from missing input validation in an ACAP configuration file (CWE-1287), enabling crafted configuration values to bypass intended privilege boundaries. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in the Axis Camera Application Platform (ACAP) framework within Axis OS exploits a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use race condition during application installation, allowing a malicious ACAP package to bypass integrity verification and gain elevated privileges on the device. Affected are Axis network cameras and IoT surveillance devices running all versions of Axis OS where unsigned ACAP application installation has been explicitly enabled. No public exploit code exists and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV; the combination of high attack complexity, administrative victim interaction, and a non-default prerequisite configuration materially limits real-world risk.
Privilege escalation in SAP S/4HANA's Reprocess Bank Statement Items component allows authenticated users to invoke processing rules that have not been explicitly shared with them, circumventing intended access controls. Affected versions span S4CORE releases 104 through 109, covering a broad swath of actively supported SAP S/4HANA deployments. The impact is confined to low-severity information disclosure - unauthorized rule access reveals restricted bank statement logic - with no integrity or availability consequences; no public exploit or active exploitation has been identified at the time of analysis.
CyberChef's client-side pretty-recipe parser freezes victim browser tabs via a crafted URL fragment containing large numbers of unmatched quote characters, triggering catastrophic backtracking in a synchronous global regular expression. Any user of CyberChef prior to 11.3.0 who opens a malicious #recipe= URL - whether shared in phishing, chat, or embedded in a page - is subject to a temporary denial-of-service condition. No code execution, data exfiltration, or privilege escalation is possible; impact is confined to browser tab availability. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation in systemd-homed enables a low-privileged, locally logged-in user whose account is managed by homed to be arbitrarily added to system groups they are not authorized to join. Successful exploitation, constrained by high attack complexity and a required user interaction step per the CVSS vector, can yield full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the local system. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability does not appear in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security 4 (StackRox Central) allows authenticated OIDC token holders to gain unauthorized role assignments through unanchored regular expression matching in the Machine-to-Machine token exchange subsystem. When administrators configure M2M role mappings, RHACS matches incoming OIDC claim values against configured patterns without regex anchors, meaning an attacker whose claim value is a superstring of a mapped pattern - for example, 'superadmin' matching a pattern intended only for 'admin' - receives elevated roles unintentionally. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at this time; the CVSS AC:H rating reflects a genuine complexity barrier requiring attacker knowledge of the target's role mapping configuration.
Traefik's BasicAuth middleware in versions 3.6.11-3.6.24 and 3.7.0-3.7.9 permits an authenticated low-privilege user to forge arbitrary backend identities via a singleflight key collision race condition. By concatenating their known valid password with a retrieved stored bcrypt hash, an attacker crafts a singleflight deduplication key identical to a legitimate in-flight request's key; the middleware returns the legitimate request's successful authentication result to the attacker's request, then propagates the attacker's chosen unconfigured username to the backend as a trusted identity. A fully working proof-of-concept achieving 25-of-25 successful identity forgeries under default bcrypt cost is publicly available in the GitHub security advisory; no CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in openclaw-cn (all versions up to 0.2.1) allows a remote attacker with low-level authentication to bypass the `isApprovedElevatedSender` privilege check in the auto-reply module and assume elevated sender permissions. A publicly disclosed proof-of-concept exploit exists on GitHub issue #564, and the project maintainer has not responded to the responsible disclosure report. No CISA KEV listing exists, but the low attack complexity combined with POC availability makes this a credible risk for any active deployment of the affected application.
Improper privilege management in NanoClaw (versions up to 2.0.64) allows authenticated remote attackers to abuse the `handleCreateAgent` function within the agent-to-agent creation module to escalate privileges beyond their authorization level. A public proof-of-concept exploit is available via a GitHub issue report, and the vendor has not responded to the coordinated disclosure, leaving deployments unpatched. No public exploit identified as actively exploited in CISA KEV, but the public POC and absence of a vendor patch materially elevate near-term exploitation risk.
Denial-of-service in Cisco IOS XE Software's web-based management interface (WebUI) allows an authenticated remote attacker holding only low-privilege credentials to render the management interface unresponsive by sending crafted input that bypasses input validation. The vulnerability spans an exceptionally broad version footprint - from 16.9.x through the 26.x release train - making patching scope significant for organizations running Cisco enterprise routing and switching infrastructure. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and this CVE is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, placing real-world urgency below its broad scope might suggest.
Stored cross-site scripting in Ghost CMS feature image captions enables any authenticated staff user to inject unsanitized HTML into the post revision history modal, hijacking the Ghost Admin session of another staff or administrator user who views that revision. Affects Ghost npm package versions v4.9.0 through v6.54.0. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and not listed in CISA KEV, but the privilege escalation potential - a lower-privileged staff member compromising a full administrator session - makes this higher-impact than the CVSS 4.3 score implies for multi-tenant or shared Ghost Admin environments.
CVE-2026-70443 is part of the Jenkins August 5, 2026 batch security advisory covering Jenkins core and multiple plugins. The provided source data does not include the specific vulnerability description for CVE-2026-70443 - the advisory text is truncated before reaching this CVE identifier (described CVEs end around CVE-2026-70435). The full advisory at https://www.jenkins.io/security/advisory/2026-08-05/ contains authoritative details. No active exploitation is confirmed (not listed in CISA KEV), and no EPSS or CVSS data was provided in the source intelligence.
Keycloak's LDAP storage provider allows delegated administrators to bypass configured search boundaries by supplying a crafted Distinguished Name (DN), exposing account information from unauthorized directory subtrees and triggering unintended user imports into Keycloak local storage. Affected deployments include Red Hat Build of Keycloak, Red Hat Single Sign-On 7, Red Hat Data Grid 8, and the JBoss EAP Expansion Pack. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis; exploitation is constrained to authenticated delegated administrators with access to the LDAP federation interface.
GNU tar's incremental restore path contains a TOCTOU race condition in dumpdir 'X' rename handling, allowing a local attacker with write access to a backed-up directory to redirect file operations outside the intended extraction root during a privileged restore. Successful exploitation can result in arbitrary file creation, rename, or overwrite - enabling privilege escalation on systems running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 through 10 and Red Hat Hardened Images. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, and no CISA KEV listing exists; the CVSS score of 4.4 reflects the constrained attack prerequisites including a required race window and administrator-initiated restore.
Privilege escalation to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM is achievable by any local, unprivileged user via Wellbia XIGNCODE3's kernel driver xhunter2.sys version 2026.6.1.192, due to missing access control on the IRP_MJ_WRITE command interface. Beyond SYSTEM-level execution, the flaw enables extraction of credentials from PPL-protected lsass.exe and termination of PPL-protected security processes such as EDR/AV agents, effectively disabling host defenses. No active exploitation is confirmed by CISA KEV, though the primary reference is a researcher blog post (blacksnufkin's 'Hunting the Hunter II') that strongly suggests PoC-grade research material exists.
Privilege escalation in MediaTek's geniezone component affects ten specific chipset models (MT8792, MT8883, MT8873, MT8893, MT8768, MT8796, MT8799, MT6991, MT8791T, MT8910) due to a missing permission check classified under CWE-1287. An attacker who has already obtained System-level privileges on an affected device can exploit this flaw to escalate further - potentially reaching kernel or TEE-adjacent privilege boundaries - without requiring any user interaction. No public exploit code exists and no active exploitation has been confirmed (EPSS 0.13%, 3rd percentile), positioning this as a chaining vulnerability relevant to targeted attacks rather than opportunistic mass exploitation.
Incorrect error handling in the MediaTek imgsensor (camera/image sensor) kernel driver across multiple MediaTek chipsets allows a local attacker who already holds System-level privilege to crash an application and potentially escalate to a higher privilege tier. Affected chipsets span eleven models including MT8395, MT8799, MT6895, MT6991, and MT8910, covering a broad range of mid-to-high-end Android-targeted SoCs. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and the EPSS score of 0.13% (3rd percentile) reflects low observed exploitation interest, though the post-exploitation utility of this flaw makes it relevant in chained attack scenarios.
Out-of-bounds write in MediaTek's HFRP component on the MT6993 chipset enables local privilege escalation beyond System-level access, confirmed via MediaTek's August 2026 security bulletin. The flaw stems from a missing bounds check (CWE-787), requiring an attacker who has already achieved System privilege to trigger further escalation - a post-compromise lateral movement primitive rather than an initial access vector. No public exploit code and no KEV listing have been identified; EPSS sits at the 3rd percentile, consistent with SSVC's 'exploitation: none' finding.
Out-of-bounds write in MediaTek's GeniZone Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) component enables local privilege escalation across 14 distinct MediaTek chipsets. An attacker who has already achieved System-level privilege on an affected Android device can exploit a missing bounds check to write outside intended memory boundaries within the secure enclave, gaining confidentiality and integrity access beyond what System privilege normally permits. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.13% (3rd percentile) reflects low observed exploitation probability; however, the pre-existing System privilege prerequisite substantially narrows the realistic attack surface.
Out-of-bounds write in MediaTek's GenieZone hypervisor component enables local privilege escalation beyond System-level access on a wide range of MediaTek mobile chipsets. Exploitation is constrained to attackers who have already obtained System privileges, making this a secondary step in a multi-stage attack chain rather than an initial foothold technique. No public exploit code exists and EPSS of 0.13% (3rd percentile) confirms negligible real-world exploitation activity; no CISA KEV listing at time of analysis.
Out-of-bounds write in the MediaTek display driver allows a local attacker who has already obtained System-level privilege to further escalate privileges on affected Android devices. The vulnerability stems from a missing bounds check (CWE-787) in display subsystem code across at least ten MediaTek chipsets, including MT8910, MT8188, MT8799, and MT6991 among others. No public exploit or active exploitation (CISA KEV) is identified at time of analysis; EPSS score of 0.14% (4th percentile) and SSVC exploitation rating of 'none' both confirm this remains an undemonstrated threat as of the August 2026 advisory.
Local privilege escalation in MediaTek's display subsystem affects 17 chipset variants used in Android devices, allowing an attacker who has already obtained System-level privilege to exploit a missing bounds check (CWE-787) and write out of bounds in display memory, achieving high confidentiality and integrity impact. The CVSS vector (PR:H/AV:L) confirms this is not an initial-access vector - it is a post-compromise escalation step requiring pre-existing System privilege. No public exploit has been identified, EPSS stands at 0.14% (4th percentile), and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, consistent with SSVC's exploitation status of 'none.'
Local privilege escalation in the MediaTek display subsystem affects 17 distinct chipsets including MT6991, MT8768, MT8678, and MT8799, among others. An attacker who has already obtained System-level privilege can exploit a race condition (CWE-367) in the display driver to achieve further privilege escalation, resulting in high confidentiality and integrity impact on the device. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.11% (2nd percentile) reflects minimal observed exploitation probability; MediaTek has released patch ALPS11019183 via its August 2026 Product Security Bulletin.
Local privilege escalation in the MediaTek display driver allows an attacker who already holds System-level privileges to further escalate via a use-after-free memory corruption condition, potentially achieving kernel-level access. Seventeen MediaTek SoC models used across Android devices are affected, disclosed in MediaTek's August 2026 security bulletin with Patch ID ALPS11019722. No public exploit code exists and EPSS at 0.14% (4th percentile) confirms negligible current exploitation probability; this vulnerability is not in the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation in MediaTek's trusted_mem subsystem affects nine specific chipset models (MT8365, MT8186, MT8188, MT8195, MT8370, MT8371, MT8390, MT8391, MT8395) through a write-what-where condition caused by improper input validation. An attacker who has already obtained System-level privilege can leverage this flaw to escalate further, potentially compromising the trusted memory environment. No public exploit code has been identified and EPSS places exploitation probability at 0.14% (4th percentile), indicating this is currently a low-exploitation-pressure issue despite its local privilege escalation potential.
Local privilege escalation in MediaTek's apusys AI Processing Unit subsystem on MT8196 and MT8366 chipsets allows an attacker already holding System-level privileges to further escalate by exploiting a confused deputy flaw - likely realized through an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) - achieving high confidentiality and integrity impact on the vulnerable system. Disclosed by MediaTek in their August 2026 Product Security Bulletin, a vendor patch is available under Patch ID AUTO00833804. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and an EPSS of 0.14% at the 4th percentile reflects negligible probability of widespread exploitation.
Privilege escalation in MediaTek's AI Processing Unit Subsystem (apusys) driver allows a local attacker already holding System-level privileges on devices equipped with MT8366, MT8196, or MT8195 chipsets to escalate further, achieving high-impact access to confidential data and system integrity. The root cause is a missing bounds check (CWE-749) in an exposed driver function, patched under MediaTek ID AUTO00837766 in the August 2026 security bulletin. No public exploit code has been identified, and the EPSS score of 0.14% (4th percentile) confirms very low current exploitation probability.
Secure boot heap buffer overflow in MediaTek chipsets MT2737, MT6880, MT6890, and MT6990 enables local privilege escalation by an attacker with physical device access. The vulnerability exists at the pre-OS firmware layer, where a write beyond allocated heap boundaries can corrupt boot verification logic and permit execution of unsigned or attacker-controlled code. No active exploitation has been confirmed - the vulnerability is absent from CISA KEV, and the EPSS score of 0.16% (6th percentile) is consistent with the hard physical access prerequisite sharply limiting opportunistic exploitation.
Out-of-bounds write in the MediaTek HEVC video decoder enables further privilege escalation on devices running MT6761, MT8766, and MT8768 chipsets. The flaw, rooted in an integer overflow during HEVC bitstream processing, can be triggered without user interaction but only by an actor who already holds System-level privilege on the device. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and EPSS sits at 0.18% (8th percentile), consistent with SSVC's 'Exploitation: none' assessment - though SSVC rates Technical Impact as total, reflecting the severity of what a successful second-stage exploit could achieve.
Privilege escalation in Capsule (Kubernetes multi-tenancy framework) versions 0.13.0-0.13.7 allows authenticated Tenant Owners to break out of tenant isolation and create cluster-scoped Kubernetes resources - including ClusterRole, ClusterRoleBinding, and ValidatingWebhookConfiguration - through the cluster-admin controller client. This is an incomplete fix of CVE-2026-22872: the TenantResource RawItems and Generators code paths (handleRawItem, handleGeneratorItem) were never updated to enforce the same cluster-scoped resource rejection guards applied to NamespacedItems. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; vendor-released patch v0.13.8 is available.
Privilege escalation in Google Chrome Enterprise on macOS allows a local attacker with physical device access to bypass enterprise policy controls and gain elevated privileges. Affected are all Chrome versions prior to 151.0.7922.72 in managed Enterprise deployments on Mac. The attack requires physical presence at the target device, substantially limiting the threat surface, though the confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact is rated high once exploited. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Quick.Cart via hard-coded, plaintext admin credentials stored in a configuration file allows local attackers with file system access to retrieve authentication details and gain administrative control. The vendor considers exploitation unlikely and has not released a fix; all versions are believed vulnerable, with version 6.7 confirmed. No public exploit or active exploitation has been reported.
Local information disclosure in accountsservice on Red Hat Enterprise Linux allows systemd-homed users to read arbitrary files via the SetIconFile handler. A proof-of-concept exists, but exploitation requires a local account managed by systemd-homed, limiting impact
Privilege escalation in OWASP DefectDojo 2.59.0 exposes authenticated non-superusers to flip the is_staff flag on any account - including their own - through the UserSerializer in the v2 API, bypassing DefectDojo's role-based access controls and granting Django admin access. Version 2.59.0 was an accidental release and has been pulled; patched releases 2.58.3 and 3.0.0 exist. Publicly available exploit code is acknowledged (CVSS 4.0 E:P), and no special preconditions beyond a valid authenticated session with delegated user-management permissions are required.
Symlink following in HuggingFace Datasets through version 5.00 allows local low-privileged attackers to redirect archive extraction to arbitrary filesystem locations by pre-planting symlinks at predictable output paths in the shared cache directory. When a higher-privileged user or automated service subsequently triggers Extractor.extract(), the library writes archive contents through the attacker-controlled symlink, enabling overwrite of sensitive system files and potential privilege escalation or code execution. A publicly available exploit exists and an upstream fix is available via commit ad2d853, though no confirmed tagged release version has been independently verified.
Privilege escalation in Hikvision DS-2CD series IP cameras allows an SSH-authenticated attacker to gain full administrative control of the device by exploiting incorrect permission allocation in the device firmware. The vulnerability requires prior SSH authentication, making it an insider or credential-theft-dependent threat rather than an unauthenticated remote attack. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis, but successful exploitation delivers complete confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the affected camera.
Oracle Lease and Finance Management within Oracle E-Business Suite (versions 12.2.3-12.2.15) exposes its Lease Authoring component to exploitation by low-privileged, network-accessible attackers over HTTP, resulting in partial confidentiality loss, unauthorized data manipulation, and a partial denial of service. The vulnerability is classified as easily exploitable with no user interaction required, making it accessible to any authenticated low-privilege user who can reach the application over the network. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
Full system takeover is achievable in Oracle Agile Product Lifecycle Management for Process 6.2.4 via the Data Import component, exploitable by a high-privileged attacker with local infrastructure access. Oracle classifies this as 'easily exploitable,' resulting in complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability despite the constrained attack surface. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, limiting immediate real-world risk to insider threat and post-compromise escalation scenarios.
Oracle Product Lifecycle Analytics 3.6.1 exposes a network-exploitable flaw in its Installation Issues component, allowing a high-privileged attacker to achieve full confidentiality and integrity compromise of all accessible application data alongside partial service disruption via HTTP. The 'Installation Issues' component designation and the 'Authentication Bypass' intelligence tag together suggest the flaw may reside in insecure post-installation artifacts, exposed setup endpoints, or improperly secured administrative interfaces left accessible after deployment. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
Unauthorized data access and manipulation in Oracle iRecruitment (E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15) is achievable by any low-privileged attacker with network HTTP access, requiring no user interaction. The 'Authentication Bypass' tag from EUVD suggests the flaw likely allows an authenticated user to circumvent authorization controls within the Install/Upgrade component, gaining read and write access to recruitment data beyond their assigned permissions. No active exploitation is confirmed (not in CISA KEV) and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, though the low attack complexity makes this straightforward for any authenticated insider or compromised account.
Full takeover of Oracle Inventory Management (E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15) is achievable by a high-privileged attacker with local infrastructure access exploiting a flaw in the Internal Operations component. The CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:H/PR:H) places this firmly in the category of post-compromise or insider-threat scenarios rather than remote opportunistic attacks, yet the confirmed C:H/I:H/A:H impact means a successful exploitation yields complete control of the affected instance. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; Oracle addressed this in the July 2026 Critical Patch Update.
Oracle Time and Labor (Internal Operations component) in E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 exposes a difficult-to-exploit flaw that allows a high-privileged, network-authenticated attacker operating over HTTP to gain complete read access to all Time and Labor data and limited write access (insert, update, delete), with scope change implications affecting additional Oracle EBS components. Tagged as an authentication bypass by ENISA EUVD intelligence, this conflict with the CVSS PR:H requirement warrants investigative scrutiny - it may indicate a secondary authorization bypass rather than a full authentication bypass. No public exploit has been identified and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Cross-product data exposure in Oracle Transportation Execution (E-Business Suite 12.2.3-12.2.15) allows an authenticated low-privileged attacker over HTTP to read and modify a subset of Transportation data while also impacting additional EBS products due to a scope change. The attack requires victim interaction, suggesting a client-side injection vector (consistent with the 'Authentication Bypass' tag and scope change in the CVSS vector), where attacker-controlled content is rendered by another user. Disclosed in Oracle's July 2026 Critical Patch Update with no confirmed public exploit or CISA KEV listing at time of analysis.
Oracle Labor Distribution, an Internal Operations component of Oracle E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15, permits a high-privileged local attacker to compromise data integrity by creating, deleting, or modifying critical application data. Despite carrying an 'Authentication Bypass' tag in available intelligence, the CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:H/PR:H) constrains exploitation to actors who already possess elevated logon access to the underlying infrastructure - suggesting an internal authorization bypass rather than a full authentication circumvention. No public exploit code exists and no active exploitation has been identified; this was disclosed as part of Oracle's Critical Patch Update for July 2026.
Oracle Order Entry in E-Business Suite versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.15 exposes a low-severity local privilege vulnerability in its Internal Operations component, allowing a high-privileged local attacker to perform unauthorized data manipulation and cause partial service disruption. The attack requires physical or logical access to the infrastructure hosting the application and an already-elevated account, significantly constraining real-world exploitability. No public exploit code exists and this vulnerability has not been added to the CISA KEV catalog at the time of analysis.
Full takeover of Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database 26.1.1.1.0 is achievable by a high-privileged attacker with local logon access to the infrastructure through a flaw in the Kubernetes Operator component. The attack requires no user interaction and is characterized by Oracle as 'easily exploitable,' resulting in complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Unauthorized data disclosure in Oracle Access Manager's Authentication Engine allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read a subset of OAM-accessible data over HTTP. Affected versions are 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.2.1.0 of Oracle Fusion Middleware's OAM component. Tagged as an Authentication Bypass, the flaw carries a CVSS 5.3 (Medium) rating with low confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability consequences; no public exploit or KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Full takeover of Oracle MySQL Server and MySQL Cluster is possible through a local, high-complexity vulnerability in the Clone Plugin component, affecting MySQL Server 8.4.0-8.4.10 and 9.7.0-9.7.1, and MySQL Cluster 8.0.0-8.0.47, 8.4.0-8.4.10, and 9.7.0-9.7.1. Exploitation requires an attacker with high privileges and local logon access to the host infrastructure where MySQL executes, under difficult-to-achieve conditions, limiting realistic risk despite the full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing have been identified at time of analysis, and Oracle disclosed this via the July 2026 Critical Patch Update.
Oracle VM VirtualBox 7.2.12 contains a Core component vulnerability exploitable by high-privileged local attackers that produces a scope change, potentially compromising systems beyond VirtualBox itself. Successful exploitation yields complete confidentiality loss of all VirtualBox-accessible data and a partial denial of service, making this an isolation-breach risk in multi-tenant or shared virtualization environments. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the AC:H rating signals difficult exploitation, but the scope change (S:C) elevates real-world concern for environments where VirtualBox hosts sensitive guest workloads.
LFS deploy-key privilege escalation in Gitea (< 1.27.0) allows a holder of a write deploy key for any single repository owned by a victim to exfiltrate LFS objects from all private repositories that victim owns. The flaw originates in `routers/private/serv.go:275`, where Gitea embeds `repo.OwnerID` as the JWT `UserID` for deploy-key SSH sessions, causing the LFS batch handler at `services/lfs/server.go:268` to evaluate cross-repository authorization as if the repository owner - not the deploy key - were the requesting principal. If the victim is a Gitea site administrator, an unfiltered query in `models/git/lfs.go:226` exposes every LFS object on the entire instance. A public end-to-end PoC (poc.sh) is attached to the GitHub advisory; no CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in Eclipse hawkBit's Direct Device Integration (DDI) Controller allows any authenticated device to download firmware artifacts beyond those explicitly assigned to it, within the same tenant. The flaw - rooted in missing object-level authorization (CWE-284/CWE-862) - means a valid device credential is sufficient to access arbitrary firmware artifacts belonging to other devices in the same tenant, not just the device's own assigned updates. A secondary enumeration weakness in the software modules listing endpoint compounds the issue by enabling targeted discovery of available artifacts. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and no CISA KEV listing is present.
Privilege escalation in rConfig before 8.2.8 allows any authenticated low-privilege user to self-assign or assign the Admin role to arbitrary accounts via a missing allowlist and absent authorization check in the Users API. The StoreUserRequest handler accepts a caller-supplied role field without validating it against permitted values and without verifying the requesting account already holds Admin status, enabling direct mass-assignment of the Admin role to any user model during creation or profile updates. No public exploit code has been identified and CISA KEV listing is absent; a vendor-released patch is available in version 8.2.8.
Privilege escalation via second-order SurrealQL injection in SurrealDB before 2.0.5, 2.1.5, and 2.2.2 lets an authenticated OWNER or EDITOR user embed malicious SurrealQL inside unescaped table or field names that executes when a higher-privileged operator re-imports the CLI-exported backup, yielding root-level takeover of the instance. Reported by VulnCheck and discovered during a cure53 audit, it also enables a universal second-order injection against co-tenanted applications that let end users define custom tables or fields, even when query parameters are otherwise sanitized. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the vendor and cure53 both rate the impact Critical (CVSS 4.0 base 9.4).
Insecure file permissions on the HCL DFMPro (for CATIA), DFXAnalytics, and DFXServer installer executables allow any locally authenticated non-administrative user to overwrite or replace those binaries with malicious code. When a privileged user subsequently runs the tampered installer - during installation, upgrade, or reinstallation - the attacker's binary executes in the elevated context, completing a local privilege escalation. No public exploit code has been identified and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV; however, the vendor-reported CVSS 3.3 score materially understates the potential impact of a successful exploitation scenario.
Full SYSTEM-level code execution in Broadcom's Symantec IT Management Suite (ITMS) 8.7.3 is reachable by any non-administrator interactive user via a DCOM and Windows Task Scheduler logic chain, requiring no network access and no memory corruption. The attack is confined to the local host, meaning a standard user account with an interactive session on the ITMS server is sufficient to achieve unrestricted SYSTEM privileges. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, though Broadcom's advisory carries the highest urgency rating (U:Red) and the CVSS 4.0 supplemental metric AU:Y indicates the exploitation steps can be automated once understood.
Local privilege escalation via a misconfigured WMI provider in Broadcom's Symantec IT Management Suite (Altiris) exposes SYSTEM-readable files to any local standard user. The AltirisAgent_Stream WMI class fails to re-impersonate the calling user when servicing queries, reverting to the LocalSystem context instead - allowing unprivileged local users to bypass filesystem ACLs and read files that are restricted to SYSTEM or Administrator accounts, including configuration files, service logs, and stored secrets. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, though the technique is mechanically straightforward for any authenticated local user; the Broadcom advisory (SA 37995) is the authoritative disclosure source.
Unauthenticated path traversal in Nuclio Dashboard's function build API allows arbitrary file write as root inside the Dashboard container. The `spec.handler` field accepts unsanitized module names containing `../` sequences, which Go's `path.Join`/`path.Clean` resolves to escape the build temp directory; the resulting path is passed to `os.WriteFile` running as `uid=0`. Versions up to and including 1.15.27 are affected; a full working proof-of-concept has been publicly disclosed, though no confirmed active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis.
Privilege escalation in BunkerWeb's UI and API allows a low-privileged authenticated user to inject attacker-controlled Datalog facts into signed Biscuit authorization tokens by manipulating the HTTP Host header, which was interpolated directly into the token builder string without parameterization. Affected are BunkerWeb open-source versions prior to 1.6.12 and BunkerWeb PRO prior to 0.57. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the public commit diff fully documents the injection mechanism, making reproduction straightforward for any authenticated low-privileged account holder.
Privilege-free process termination in OPSWAT AppRemover Driver (ardrv.sys v2017.10.02.1551 and earlier) allows any locally authenticated user to kill arbitrary processes - including endpoint security tools - by sending crafted requests to IOCTL handler 0x2420031 without any privilege validation. A public proof-of-concept is available on GitHub (redteamfortress/CVE-2026-36425), making this immediately reproducible by insider threats or post-compromise attackers seeking to disable defenses. No active exploitation has been confirmed in CISA KEV, but the defense-evasion potential elevates operational priority in environments running OPSWAT's OESIS Framework.
Stale render context retention in ViewComponent::Base allows lower-privileged users to receive privileged UI from a prior admin render when component instances are reused across requests, tenants, or threads. Affected versions 4.0.0 through 4.11.x of the rubygems/view_component package fail to reset request-scoped instance variables between render_in calls, enabling cross-user authorization bypass, stale Host header injection into generated URLs, slot child context leakage, and cross-thread context corruption. A detailed publicly available proof-of-concept confirms all four impact vectors; no KEV listing is present, but the exploitability in realistic shared-registry patterns is directly demonstrated.
Improper privilege management in TDengine Cloud DB prior to 3.4.1.15 allows an authenticated Data Reader admin_user to execute `create udf` (user-defined function) commands that should be restricted to higher-privilege roles. While the same role is correctly denied `show dnodes` and `create user`, the UDF creation permission was left ungated, creating a privilege escalation path within the database engine. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE has not been added to the CISA KEV catalog.
Privilege escalation to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM is achievable on Windows systems hosting the Pegatron Tdelo64.sys kernel-mode driver, which exposes the \\.\TdeIo device interface without enforcing caller privilege checks or validating user-supplied kernel memory addresses in its IOCTL dispatcher. Any local user can open the device interface and send crafted IOCTL requests to perform arbitrary kernel memory read and write operations, enabling full system compromise including credential theft and security product bypass. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; the vulnerability was reported to CERT/CC (VU#529388), and the provided CVSS score of 6.2 materially understates the real-world impact given the described kernel write capability.
