Privilege Escalation

Argument injection in the kubectl_generic tool of mcp-server-kubernetes (npm, ≤ 3.6.2) enables Kubernetes bearer token exfiltration through indirect prompt injection, allowing privilege escalation to the operator's full RBAC permissions. An attacker with limited cluster access plants a crafted JSON payload in pod log output; when an AI agent using the MCP server reads those logs and follows the injected instruction, kubectl_generic calls kubectl with attacker-controlled --server and --insecure-skip-tls-verify flags, forwarding the operator's kubeconfig bearer token to an attacker-controlled HTTPS endpoint. A fully working public PoC exists confirmed end-to-end on a live kind cluster using Claude Haiku; the fix is available in version 3.7.0. No active exploitation per CISA KEV is confirmed at time of analysis.

Privilege escalation in Google Chrome's Extensions subsystem, affecting all versions prior to 149.0.7827.53, allows a remote attacker who socially engineers a user into installing a crafted malicious extension to gain elevated privileges within the browser context, impacting confidentiality, integrity, and availability at a low-to-moderate level. The CVSS score of 6.3 (Medium) reflects the network-reachable attack vector offset by mandatory user interaction (UI:R), and Chromium's own security team rated this as Low severity - a notable downgrade from the NVD-calculated score. No public exploit code and no KEV listing have been identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.01% (1st percentile) corroborates minimal observed exploitation activity.

Discretionary access control bypass in Google Chrome's Cast feature (prior to 149.0.7827.53) allows an attacker positioned on the local network segment to interfere with Cast functionality via crafted malicious network traffic. The vulnerability stems from improper privilege management (CWE-269) within the Cast implementation, resulting in limited confidentiality and integrity impact (CVSS 5.1). No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and CISA KEV listing is absent; however, the no-authentication-required condition and the network-adjacent attack surface make this relevant for environments where Chrome's Cast feature is actively used on shared or untrusted network segments.

Privilege escalation in Google Chrome's Enterprise feature (versions prior to 149.0.7827.53) allows a local attacker with physical device access to elevate privileges and access confidential information. The CVSS vector (AV:P/C:H) confirms the attack requires hands-on physical access to the target device, limiting the realistic threat surface to scenarios such as unattended or shared managed endpoints. No public exploit exists and no active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis; EPSS at 0.01% (1st percentile) and SSVC exploitation status of 'none' align with the low overall risk posture.

Order state transition endpoints in Shopware's Admin API expose a vertical authorization bypass (CWE-862) where authenticated low-privileged users can manipulate order lifecycle states - including cancellation, fulfillment, and payment transitions - without holding the required `order:update` ACL privilege. The structural gap exists across both the 6.6.x and 6.7.x release lines because the affected routes in `OrderActionController.php` carry no ACL metadata, causing `AclAnnotationValidator` to exit without enforcing any privilege check, and the downstream `StateMachineRegistry` then executes writes under `Context::SYSTEM_SCOPE`. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, but exploitation is mechanically trivial for any authenticated Admin API user regardless of their assigned role.

Privilege escalation in Shopware's Admin API allows authenticated users holding only the low-privilege `user:create` or `user:update` ACL to promote any account - including newly created ones - to full administrator access. The flaw exists in `UserController::upsertUser()` across composer packages `shopware/platform` and `shopware/core`, affecting all releases below 6.6.10.18 and the 6.7.x line below 6.7.10.1. Shopware has released patched versions; no public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the attack is straightforward for any user with delegated user-management API access.

Local privilege escalation in Forcepoint VPN Client for Windows versions 6.11.3 and prior allows an authenticated low-privileged local user to elevate to SYSTEM. The flaw stems from execution with unnecessary privileges (CWE-250) and carries a CVSS 4.0 score of 8.5, but no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The vulnerability was reported and disclosed by Forcepoint PSIRT itself rather than a third party.

Local privilege escalation in NetworkManager's dhclient backend allows a low-privileged local user to execute arbitrary OS commands with elevated privileges by supplying a crafted Manufacturer Usage Description (MUD) URL. Exploitation is strictly limited to systems where an administrator has explicitly reconfigured NetworkManager to use the dhclient backend - a non-default setting - meaning the vast majority of deployments are unaffected by design. CVSS 6.7 (local vector, high complexity, user interaction required) accurately reflects the constrained exploitation conditions; no public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis.

Local privilege escalation in SWUpdate versions before 2026.05 allows unprivileged users to gain root or install attacker-controlled content by winning a TOCTOU race during processing of a signed update. The flaw, reported by SBA Research and tracked as EUVD-2025-210052, undermines SWUpdate's signed-update integrity model on embedded Linux devices. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but an upstream patch is available via commit f4bd6426.

Privilege escalation in the Mojoomla School Management WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 93.2.0) allows authenticated low-privileged users to elevate their permissions to higher-privileged roles such as administrator. The flaw stems from incorrect privilege assignment (CWE-266) and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 8.8 with no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Any WordPress site running the plugin in its default state is vulnerable until an upstream patch is released.

Dräger Protector Software prior to version 6.4.2 contains a local privilege escalation vulnerability due to insecure file system permissions that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code with. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.3), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. This Incorrect Permission Assignment vulnerability could allow attackers to access resources due to misconfigured permissions.

Dräger Protector Software prior to version 6.4.2 contains a local privilege escalation vulnerability due to insecure file system permissions that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code with. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.3), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. This Incorrect Permission Assignment vulnerability could allow attackers to access resources due to misconfigured permissions.

Sandbox escape in Sony PlayStation 4 firmware versions 13.00 through 13.02 allows attackers to break out of the BD-J (Blu-ray Disc Java) sandbox by supplying a malformed JAR file, leading to privilege escalation with full impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The flaw, tracked via HackerOne report 3452696 and CWE-367 (TOCTOU race condition), is rated CVSS 7.4 because the local attack vector and high attack complexity offset the unauthenticated nature of the exploit. EPSS is 0.02% (5th percentile) and no public exploit identified at time of analysis.

Privilege escalation in Themeisle Masteriyo LMS PRO (WordPress plugin) up to and including version 2.20.0 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to gain elevated privileges through incorrect privilege assignment (CWE-266). The CVSS 9.8 score reflects network-reachable, no-authentication exploitation with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the Patchstack advisory confirms the flaw class and affected version range.

Dräger Infinity Explorer C700 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability that allows attackers to break out of kiosk mode and access the underlying operating system through a specific dialog. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.6), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.

Android's AppOpsService (AppOpsService.java) exposes protected system or user information to low-privileged local applications due to missing permission checks across multiple functions, enabling unauthorized information disclosure without requiring additional execution privileges. Affected versions span Android 14 through Android 16-QPR2, representing a broad swath of active Android deployments in use today. No public exploit code exists and no active exploitation has been confirmed (not in CISA KEV); SSVC rates exploitation as none with only partial technical impact, placing this at low urgency for most organizations.

Local privilege escalation in Google Android 16-QPR2 enables an unprivileged local actor to delete device supervision data by exploiting a missing null check in the onCreate() method of DisableSupervisionActivity.kt, effectively dismantling enterprise MDM controls without requiring elevated privileges or user interaction. The flaw (CWE-269: Improper Privilege Management) is bounded to local access but operates with no authentication prerequisite, making it exploitable by any installed app or local user on a supervised managed device. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and an EPSS of 0.01% reflects negligible observed exploitation probability; however, organizational risk in enterprise Android deployments is disproportionately higher than the base score suggests.

SQL injection across multiple contacts database functions in Google Android enables local privilege escalation on Android 14, 15, 16, and 16-qpr2 without requiring any elevated privileges or user interaction. The flaw allows an unprivileged local process or malicious application to inject arbitrary SQL into contacts database queries, resulting in unauthorized read, write, and partial denial-of-service impact against contact data. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and EPSS probability stands at 0.01%, consistent with a local-only attack surface, though the absence of any privilege prerequisite (PR:N) lowers the bar for any attacker already on the device.

Tapjacking and UI overlay exploitation in Android's WindowState.java enables local privilege escalation on Android 14, 15, 16, and 16-qpr2 without requiring any elevated permissions from the attacker. A malicious app on the device can deploy a deceptive overlay over system permission dialogs, causing the victim to unknowingly grant elevated permissions. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and EPSS at 0.01% (1st percentile) indicates very low current exploitation probability, though the broad Android version coverage across actively maintained releases elevates the aggregate exposure.

Path traversal in Android's PackageInstallerService allows a local, unprivileged attacker to redirect a Device Policy Controller (DPC) installation into an unintended filesystem directory via a crafted install session, enabling local escalation of privilege on Android 14 through Android 16. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and EPSS at 0.01% (1st percentile) reflects minimal observed exploitation probability. The local attack vector (AV:L) constrains real-world exposure to scenarios where the attacker already has physical or application-level access to the device, materially limiting the attack surface compared to network-exploitable flaws.

Local information disclosure in Android's Bluetooth stack allows a low-privileged application to bypass permission enforcement in handleBondStateChanged of AdapterService.java, exposing sensitive Bluetooth bonding state data without requiring any user interaction. Affected versions include Android 15, Android 16, and Android 16-qpr2, as confirmed by the June 2026 Android Security Bulletin and EUVD-2026-33779. No public exploit code exists and this vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, placing it in the lower tier of operational priority despite the permission bypass nature of the flaw.

Local privilege escalation in Google Android (versions 14, 15, 16, and 16-QPR2) stems from a tapjacking/overlay flaw in the hide() method of WindowState.java, enabling a locally installed malicious application to covertly redirect a user's permission approval to itself. An attacker who has placed an app on the device can silently overlay a transparent window atop a system permission dialog, causing the user's tap to be misinterpreted as consent for sensitive permissions the attacker's app requested. No active exploitation is confirmed (absent from CISA KEV), no public exploit code has been identified, and the EPSS score of 0.01% (1st percentile) reflects negligible observed exploitation probability at time of analysis.

Tapjacking via the InputInterceptor component in Android's Letterbox.java enables a locally-installed malicious app to silently capture unintended permission grants on Android 14, 15, and 16, resulting in local privilege escalation with high confidentiality impact. The vulnerability requires no elevated privileges on the part of the attacking application and is reported by Google as needing no user interaction for exploitation - a claim that is in notable tension with the tapjacking mechanism described, which inherently involves intercepting user touch events. No public exploit code exists and no active exploitation has been confirmed (EPSS 0.01%, percentile 1%), but the ease of local attack (AV:L/AC:L) and breadth of affected Android versions make patch deployment a priority for enterprise and consumer device fleets.

Persistent denial of service and local privilege escalation in Google Android's UBSan runtime component affect Android 14, 15, 16-qpr2, and 16, stemming from an integer overflow in multiple functions of ubsan_throwing_runtime.cpp. An authenticated local attacker with low-level privileges and no required user interaction can exploit this overflow to trigger persistent availability loss and, per the description, possible privilege escalation. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

Improper privilege management in Android 16 and 16-QPR2 allows a local low-privileged user to override credential provider settings across user profiles by exploiting a permissions bypass in the `updateProvidersWhenServiceRemoved` method of `CredentialManagerService.java`. The CVSS vector confirms local-only exploitation (AV:L) by an authenticated low-privilege account (PR:L) with no user interaction required, yielding limited confidentiality impact. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

Local privilege escalation in Android 15, 16, and 16-qpr2 enables a low-privileged process to bypass Mobile Device Management (MDM) policy controls through a logic error in the InstallRepository.kt performPreInstallChecks function. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS exploitation probability is very low at 0.01%, but the flaw permits silent policy circumvention without user interaction on enterprise-managed devices. Patched in the June 2026 Android Security Bulletin.

Local privilege escalation in Google Android versions 14, 15, 16, and 16-qpr2 allows a malicious app to reset user-selected permission choices by bypassing the permission enforcement logic (CWE-693, Protection Mechanism Failure). The flaw requires no user interaction and only low privileges already available to any installed app, but at present there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS rates real-world exploitation probability at just 0.01%.

Local privilege escalation in Google Android 14's PipTaskOrganizer component allows a low-privileged app to launch activities from the background by abusing a confused deputy condition, requiring no user interaction. The CVSS 7.8 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L) reflects local attack vector with low privileges, and per the available data there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis (EPSS 0.01%, not on CISA KEV).

Local privilege escalation in Google Android (versions 14, 15, 16, and 16-qpr2) allows a low-privileged app to launch background activities without the required permission check, enabling elevation to higher-privileged execution contexts without user interaction. The flaw, tracked as EUVD-2025-210011 and addressed in the June 2026 Android Security Bulletin, carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.8 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N) with high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is 0.01%, indicating very low predicted exploitation probability in the near term.

Local privilege escalation in Google Android 14 and 15 allows a low-privileged app to bypass the user disclaimer dialog when adding an account to a managed automotive device, due to a missing permission check in CarDevicePolicyService.setUserDisclaimerAcknowledged. The flaw enables silent account provisioning on managed (enterprise) car devices without the user's awareness or consent, and no public exploit is identified at time of analysis. EPSS is negligible (0.01%) and SSVC marks exploitation as 'none', so the issue is real but not currently weaponized.

Local privilege escalation in Google Android (versions 14, 15, 16, and 16-qpr2) allows a low-privileged app to access URIs belonging to other users on the device due to a logic error across multiple functions in ComputerEngine.java. No user interaction or additional execution privileges are required, but exploitation is local and currently no public exploit is identified at time of analysis (EPSS 0.12%, SSVC exploitation: none).

Local privilege escalation in Google Android 14, 15, 16, and 16-qpr2 allows a local attacker with low privileges to reveal images across user boundaries through improper input validation in multiple code locations. The flaw requires user interaction but no additional execution privileges, and carries a CVSS 7.8 (High) rating. EPSS exploitation probability is low at 0.09% (26th percentile), and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis.

Privilege escalation in the Nextcloud Approval app (prior to version 2.7.2) allows authenticated users who lack sharing permissions to force the platform to distribute restricted files to approval workflow participants. By invoking the approval request flow with the createShares flag enabled, a user can bypass the system's file-sharing authorization controls entirely, causing files marked as non-shareable to be shared with designated approvers. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, but a vendor-confirmed patch and upstream PR diff are available.

Authorization bypass in praisonai-platform allows any workspace member to rewrite workspace name, description, and settings via the PATCH /workspaces/{id} endpoint. An attacker with a member-level token can modify configuration settings that may be read by downstream code, potentially enabling configuration injection with high integrity impact. A detailed exploit chain is publicly documented in the advisory, but EPSS score is low (0.03%) and no active exploitation has been reported.

Incorrect permission enforcement in OTRS External Interface and ConfigItem List module allows an authenticated customer to query Configuration Item (CI) data beyond their authorized group scope. The flaw is conditional - both the CMDB module and CustomerGroupSupport must be active simultaneously, substantially narrowing the affected population. Rated CVSS 3.5 (Low) with no confirmed active exploitation and no public exploit code identified at time of analysis, this is a scoped information disclosure risk primarily threatening organizations that expose CMDB asset data through the customer portal.

Information disclosure in OTRS Document Search Article Meta Filters modules (present in both STORM-powered OTRS and standalone OTRS 2026.x) permits authenticated low-privileged users to enumerate metadata - specifically the count of Configuration Items (CIs), SLAs, and services - for objects they are not authorized to access. Affected versions span OTRS with STORM modules 7.0.X through 2026.X before 2026.4.X, making this a broad version-range exposure with a low CVSS score of 3.5. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability has not been added to the CISA KEV catalog.

Local privilege escalation in MediaTek's GenieZone hypervisor component affects 36 distinct chipsets via a race condition-induced out-of-bounds write. An attacker who has already obtained System-level privilege on an affected Android device can exploit the TOCTOU flaw to escalate further - likely to kernel or hypervisor-level execution - achieving full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and no KEV listing exists; however, the wide chipset footprint spanning flagship to budget SoCs significantly broadens the potential attack surface.

Local privilege escalation in MediaTek's geniezone hypervisor component affects 36 distinct chipsets spanning budget to flagship tiers. An attacker who has already achieved System-level privilege can trigger an out-of-bounds write caused by a missing bounds check, escalating further - likely into kernel or hypervisor trust boundaries - with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and this is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog; however, the post-compromise escalation path makes this relevant to threat actors performing multi-stage device compromise on Android-based MediaTek hardware.

Improper privilege management in nextlevelbuilder GoClaw up to version 3.11.3 allows authenticated low-privileged users to escalate privileges via the handleSave function of the RoleAdmin Gateway component (internal/http/tts_config.go). The vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network with no user interaction required, though a low-privilege authenticated session is a prerequisite per the CVSS:4.0 vector (PR:L). A publicly available proof-of-concept exists (published via GitHub issue #1118), but this CVE has not been added to the CISA KEV catalog. The CVSS 4.0 base score of 2.1 (LOW) reflects constrained confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact with no scope change to downstream systems.

Excessive RBAC permissions in the Metal3 ip-address-manager (IPAM) controller's ClusterRole expose Kubernetes Secrets to post-compromise abuse. The metal3-ipam-controller-manager-role granted full CRUD on core/v1 Secrets - yet PR diff evidence confirms the controller never accesses Secrets in normal operation, making these permissions entirely unnecessary. If the controller pod is compromised via a supply chain attack or container escape, an attacker inheriting the controller's service account token can read, modify, or delete any Secret in the namespace, turning a narrow container compromise into cluster-wide credential exfiltration. No public exploit exists and no CISA KEV listing, but the confidentiality impact is rated High (C:H) by NVD.

Privilege escalation in OpenClaw's Slack plugin approval workflow allows authenticated users holding limited exec permissions to bypass operator-configured approval splits by resolving plugin approvals through the exec approver gate - approving actions outside their intended authorization boundary. All OpenClaw versions before 2026.5.12 are affected when the Slack plugin is deployed with approval split configurations. No public exploit code has been identified and this vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV; the CVSS 4.0 score of 2.3 accurately reflects its narrow real-world impact, constrained by prerequisites and a low impact ceiling.

Sandbox escape in nono-cli allows a sandboxed process to fully break out of Landlock/seccomp confinement by communicating over the unmediated per-user systemd D-Bus Unix domain socket. Versions prior to 0.55.0 of the Rust CLI crate are affected, specifically when using bundled profiles such as 'claude-code' that permit bash execution. An attacker - or a prompt-injected AI coding agent - can invoke systemd-run --user from within the sandbox to spawn an unsandboxed sibling process capable of writing anywhere the launching user can write, executing arbitrary commands, and establishing network connections. A working proof-of-concept reproducer is publicly available in the GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-27vp-2mmc-vmh3; no CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis.

Privilege escalation in Elastic Kibana's Fleet agent policy management feature allows authenticated Fleet administrators to inject unvalidated values into a configuration override mechanism, causing Elastic Agents to be provisioned with API keys carrying elevated Elasticsearch privileges. Successful exploitation yields unauthorized read/write access to sensitive Elasticsearch security indices beyond the Fleet role's intended scope. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and CISA KEV does not list this issue.

Privilege escalation in Capsule (the Kubernetes multi-tenancy operator) allows authenticated tenant owners to create cluster-scoped resources - including ClusterRole and ValidatingWebhookConfiguration - by embedding them in TenantResource RawItems, bypassing tenant isolation enforced by the platform. The Capsule Controller's default cluster-admin ClusterRoleBinding means it creates whatever resource it is instructed to process, and its attempt to namespace-scope the resource via obj.SetNamespace() is silently ignored by the Kubernetes API for cluster-scoped kinds. A working proof-of-concept is publicly documented in the GHSA advisory; no CISA KEV listing has been issued at time of analysis.

Refresh token replay in Keycloak allows a remote attacker who has previously captured a user's refresh token to reuse that token after it has been revoked, bypassing session expiration controls. The vulnerability surfaces specifically when revokeRefreshToken=true is configured alongside persistent session storage, and is triggered by a server restart that resets the internal timing mechanisms responsible for enforcing token revocation. Successful exploitation can yield full account takeover, information disclosure, or privilege escalation; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE does not appear in CISA KEV.

Privilege escalation in Red Hat Build of Keycloak allows an authenticated administrator holding the manage-clients role to exploit a Time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition in name-based admin role checks, elevating their privileges to realm-admin for all users within the realm. The resulting composite role relationship is persistent - it survives both manual revocation of the attacker's original permissions and system reboots, making remediation non-trivial post-exploitation. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

Authentication bypass in SpSoft AppLock 7.9.40 for Android allows a local attacker with physical device access to circumvent fingerprint or PIN protection and access locked applications such as Chrome. The flaw stems from the app's reliance on a custom UI overlay rather than enforcing authentication at a deeper system level - cascading interface navigation triggered via advertisement or browser intents exposes routes that allow the attacker to exit the lock screen without re-authenticating. No public exploitation (CISA KEV) has been confirmed, but a researcher-published proof-of-concept exists on GitHub, and EPSS is low at 0.04% (11th percentile), consistent with the physical-access requirement limiting opportunistic exploitation.

Jenkins Job Import Plugin version 143.v044a_2e819b_27 and earlier exposes credentials ID enumeration to any authenticated user holding the minimal Overall/Read permission due to a missing permission check on an HTTP endpoint. Any low-privileged Jenkins user can query this endpoint and retrieve the IDs of all credentials stored in the Jenkins credentials store, enabling reconnaissance for follow-on credential-targeting attacks. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, CISA has not listed this in KEV, and SSVC rates exploitation status as none with partial technical impact.

Missing permission check in Jenkins AppSpider Plugin 1.0.17 and earlier allows any authenticated user with Overall/Read permission to force the Jenkins server to initiate connections to arbitrary attacker-specified URLs via a form validation endpoint. This constitutes a server-side request forgery (SSRF)-class primitive - an attacker can leverage this to probe internal network services, perform port scanning, or interact with internal infrastructure reachable by the Jenkins host. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and CISA SSVC assessment confirms no active exploitation.

Local privilege escalation in Phoenix Contact PLCnext controllers (AXC F 1152/1252/2152/3152, AXC F 2000 EA, RFC 4072R/4072S, EPC 1522, BPC 9102S, VL3 UPC 2440 EDGE) and the virtual PLCnext Control 500/1000/2000/3000 product lines before firmware 2026.0.3 allows a low-privileged local user to plant or modify configuration and application files in user-writable filesystem locations that a privileged service later consumes, gaining elevated privileges. The flaw (CWE-427) is rated CVSS 4.0 8.7 (High) but carries a very low EPSS of 0.03% (9th percentile). There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.

Incorrect access control in Northern.tech Mender Enterprise Server before 4.1.1 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to gain limited confidential data exposure under high-complexity conditions. Classified under CWE-269 (Improper Privilege Management) and tagged as a Privilege Escalation vector, the flaw introduces an unauthorized access path to restricted resources, though impact is constrained to low confidentiality loss with no integrity or availability consequence. No public exploit code exists and no active exploitation has been confirmed; EPSS of 0.02% (5th percentile) reflects a minimal probability of imminent widespread exploitation.

LDAP injection in Yamcs LdapAuthModule (yamcs-core < 5.12.7) enables horizontal privilege escalation for authenticated low-privilege users. By submitting a wildcard character as the username alongside a single known valid LDAP password, an attacker causes the unescaped LDAP search filter to match the first user returned by the directory query, effectively authenticating as that account. A proof-of-concept exploit is publicly available in the GitHub advisory; no CISA KEV listing exists, but the low attack complexity and published PoC make this a credible threat for any Yamcs deployment using LDAP authentication.

Local privilege escalation in Apple macOS allows a malicious app already running with low privileges to elevate to root by exploiting a logic flaw (improper privilege management) that was resolved with additional validation checks. The flaw affects macOS Sonoma before 14.8, macOS Sequoia before 15.7, and macOS Tahoe before 26, and was reported by Apple itself. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no EPSS or KEV signal was provided, indicating no confirmed active exploitation.

Privilege escalation in Joomla! CMS via the com_users batch task allows low-privileged authenticated users to bypass access controls and elevate their user group membership or permissions. Affected versions span two major release lines: 4.0.0 through 5.4.5 and 6.0.0 through 6.1.0, as confirmed by ENISA EUVD-2026-31880 and the Joomla Security Centre. No public exploit has been identified and EPSS is effectively zero; however, SSVC assesses the technical impact as total, meaning successful exploitation could yield full privilege takeover within the application.

Arbitrary JavaScript execution in SailingLab AppLock 4.3.8 for Android is triggered by a malicious co-installed app sending a crafted VIEW intent with a javascript: URI to the exposed BrowserMainActivity component. Because AppLock operates with elevated permissions by design (it restricts access to other apps), this unsafe WebView navigation path creates a changed-scope impact: script execution occurs within AppLock's privilege context, enabling UI spoofing and potential privilege escalation beyond what a normal app could achieve. No public exploit identified at time of analysis beyond the publicly available proof-of-concept published by the reporter on GitHub.

PIN lock bypass in Easyelife App Lock 1.9.2 for Android allows a local attacker with physical device access to reach applications that were supposedly secured behind a PIN. The root cause is architectural: the lock is implemented as a UI overlay rather than through Android's native secure authentication APIs (BiometricPrompt, KeyguardManager), meaning it can be circumvented by triggering advertisement or browser intents that cause the app to navigate cascading activity flows, effectively routing around the overlay. EPSS is very low at 0.05% (16th percentile), no public exploit is confirmed in CISA KEV, and a researcher disclosure with likely proof-of-concept steps is publicly available on GitHub.

PIN lock bypass in SailingLab AppLock 4.3.8 for Android exposes protected applications to anyone with brief physical device access. The root cause is architectural: the lock is implemented as a screen overlay rather than through Android's secure authentication APIs, meaning the underlying apps remain accessible via exposed intent routes triggered through advertisement or browser interactions. An attacker with physical access can navigate cascading UI flows to dismiss or circumvent the overlay entirely, gaining access to locked apps such as Chrome, resulting in information disclosure and unintended privilege escalation. No public exploit is confirmed in CISA KEV, but a researcher disclosure is publicly available on GitHub, and EPSS is negligible at 0.04% (11th percentile), consistent with the physical-access-only attack vector.

Physical-access PIN lock bypass in AppLockZ 4.2.11 for Android exposes protected applications to unauthorized access without valid credentials. The root cause is architectural: the lock mechanism is implemented as a UI overlay rather than through Android's secure authentication APIs, leaving it vulnerable to circumvention via exposed activity routes reachable through advertisement or browser intents. An attacker with physical possession of the device can navigate cascading interface flows to evade lockscreen verification and access apps protected by AppLockZ (e.g., Chrome), resulting in information disclosure. No active exploitation is confirmed in CISA KEV, and the EPSS score of 0.04% reflects minimal real-world exploitation probability at this time.

Remote image blocking bypass in Roundcube Webmail allows unauthenticated network attackers to embed HTML email image tags pointing to local or private network destinations, causing the server to fetch those resources despite the 'block remote images' policy being active. Affected versions are 1.6.14 through 1.6.15 and 1.7.0, with vendor-released patches 1.6.16 and 1.7.1 available since May 2026 per the official advisory. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low at 0.03%, though SSVC rates technical impact as total - a notable discrepancy that warrants attention for deployments where the mail server has internal network access.

Splinterware System Scheduler Pro 5.12 contains an insecure file permissions vulnerability that allows low-privilege users to escalate privileges by modifying service executable files. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.6), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.

Acer Care Center's ACCSvc service exposes a Named Pipe with an insufficiently restrictive Security Descriptor, enabling any authenticated local user to crash the service by sending a crafted IPC message of type 0x03, resulting in process termination with ERROR_PROCESS_ABORTED (exit code 1067). Versions 4.0 up to and including 4.00.3058 are confirmed affected. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; EPSS probability stands at 0.01% (2nd percentile), SSVC classifies exploitation as none, and there is no CISA KEV listing - placing this firmly in the low operational priority tier despite the Medium CVSS score.

Stored XSS in Concrete CMS 9.0 through 9.5.0 enables a rogue editor to inject persistent JavaScript via the page name field within the Atomik theme, executing in the browser session of any authenticated user who visits the affected pages. Consequences include session hijacking, credential theft, and unauthorized actions performed as the victim - potentially escalating to higher privileges if an administrator is targeted. No active exploitation is confirmed (SSVC: none; EPSS 0.04% at the 13th percentile), and a vendor-released patch is available in version 9.5.1.

Information exposure in Dell PowerFlex Manager (Appliance, Rack, and standalone) versions <=4.6.2 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read directory listings served by the management interface, exposing file and path names that can reveal sensitive configuration and system details. The flaw is remotely reachable without credentials or user interaction (CVSS 7.5), but there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS estimates exploitation probability at just 0.02%. CISA's SSVC framework rates exploitation as 'none' and technical impact as 'partial,' indicating a genuine but non-critical disclosure issue rather than a code-execution threat.

Local privilege escalation in the Trend Micro Apex One (Mac) agent lets a low-privileged user abuse a flaw in the agent's self-protection mechanism to gain elevated (root-level) control on affected macOS installations. The root cause is an origin validation error (CWE-346) in the component meant to prevent tampering with the security agent itself. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is negligible (0.01%) and CISA SSVC records no known exploitation, but a Zero Day Initiative advisory (ZDI-26-143) confirms independent researcher validation of the issue.

Local privilege escalation in the Trend Micro Apex One (mac) endpoint agent lets a low-privileged user who already has code execution on a macOS host abuse a race condition in the agent's cache mechanism to gain full (root-level) control. The flaw was reported by Trend Micro/ZDI (ZDI-26-142) and carries a CVSS of 7.8; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is negligible (0.01%), and CISA SSVC records exploitation status as none.

Local privilege escalation in the Trend Micro Apex One (mac) agent stems from a race condition in the iCore service's signature verification routine, letting a low-privileged local attacker on affected macOS installations swap a verified file after the check but before use to run code with elevated (root-level) privileges. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and SSVC/EPSS signals both indicate exploitation has not been observed; Trend Micro credited its own team with the report and states the issue was already remediated through ActiveUpdate/SaaS releases in mid-to-late 2025.

Local privilege escalation in the Trend Micro Apex One (mac) agent lets an attacker who already runs low-privileged code abuse an origin validation weakness (CWE-346) in the iCore service to gain full control of the endpoint. The flaw yields total confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact (CVSS 7.8) but requires an existing foothold, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. It was discovered through the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI-26-139) and reported by the vendor; EPSS is negligible at 0.01% and CISA SSVC records no observed exploitation.

Local privilege escalation in Trend Micro Apex One and Apex One as a Service stems from an origin validation error (CWE-346) that lets an authenticated low-privileged attacker elevate to higher privileges on the host. Trend Micro has released fixed builds and ZDI has published an advisory (ZDI-26-140); no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though vendor-reported vulnerabilities in endpoint security agents are frequent targets for post-compromise attackers.

Local privilege escalation in the Trend Micro Apex One scan engine allows low-privileged users on Windows endpoints to gain elevated privileges by abusing a link-following weakness (CWE-59) in the scanner's file-handling logic. The flaw affects on-premise Apex One 2019 builds prior to 14.0.0.14136 and the SaaS edition prior to 14.0.20315, with a patch available from Trend Micro; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not currently listed in CISA KEV.

cap_net privilege escalation in FreeBSD allows Capsicum-sandboxed applications to silently expand their own network operation permissions beyond what was explicitly granted. When a sandboxed process submits a new cap_net limit that omits a key present in the previously active limit, the service incorrectly treats the omission as an unrestricted allow-any grant rather than rejecting the request. Affected releases are FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE before patch 9, 14.3-RELEASE before patch 14, and 14.4-RELEASE before patch 5; no public exploit is identified and EPSS sits at 0.01% (3rd percentile), though SSVC flags the attack as automatable once the preconditions are met.

Stored XSS in CtrlPanel's admin role management interface (versions 1.1.1 and prior) allows a privileged admin to inject persistent malicious HTML into role name or color fields, which executes in the browser of every admin who subsequently loads the /admin/roles page. The attack enables session hijacking, credential harvesting via fake login prompts or keyloggers, and lateral privilege escalation by performing admin actions on behalf of victim admins - with the payload re-executing on every page load until the offending role record is manually deleted. No active exploitation is confirmed (not in CISA KEV), but a proof-of-concept payload is documented in the vendor advisory. Fixed in version 1.2.0.

Missing Redis cache invalidation in Budibase's public API role unassignment endpoint allows users with revoked admin, builder, or app-level privileges to retain full access for up to 1 hour (the hardcoded Redis TTL of 3600 seconds). Affected deployments are Budibase versions prior to 3.38.2 running an enterprise license, where the `POST /api/public/v1/roles/unassign` endpoint writes revocations to CouchDB but never calls `cache.user.invalidateUser()`, leaving the authentication middleware to serve stale permissions from Redis. Publicly available exploit code exists within the GHSA-6vp2-6r7m-2jvx advisory; no confirmed active exploitation (not listed in CISA KEV at time of analysis).

Symbolic link exploitation in Portrait Dell Color Management (before 3.7.0) on Windows allows a local low-privileged user to escalate privileges to Administrator by redirecting an elevated installer file write to an arbitrary system path. During installation, the software writes CCFLFamily_07Feb11.edr to C:\ProgramData\Portrait Displays\CW\data\i1D3\ with Administrator-level privileges while failing to validate symlinks or reparse points at the destination - an attacker who pre-stages a malicious junction or symlink at that path gains arbitrary file creation or overwrite capability under the elevated context. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis; SSVC signals confirm no known active exploitation.

HarmonyOS app management and control module permits local privilege escalation through improper permission controls, allowing unauthenticated local attackers with user interaction to access confidential service data. CVSS 3.6 (low severity) reflects local-only attack vector and requirement for user interaction, though the privilege escalation nature means affected systems warrant review for deployment context.

Local privilege escalation affects AMD Zen 2-based processors (Ryzen 3000/4000/5000 series, Threadripper PRO 3000 WX, EPYC 7002, and various embedded parts) where improper isolation of shared resources in the CPU operation cache lets a low-privileged attacker corrupt instructions executed at a higher privilege level. Reported by AMD and tracked as AMD-SB-7052 (with parallel Xen XSA-490 and Linux/OS-vendor advisories), it carries a CVSS 4.0 base score of 7.3 but requires local access and high attack complexity. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS probability is negligible at 0.01% (2nd percentile).

A DLL hijacking vulnerability in the AMD Cleanup Utility could allow an attacker to achieve privilege escalation potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.0), this vulnerability is low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.

DDR5 memory modules in multiple AMD Ryzen processor families contain an insecure default PMIC (Power Management Integrated Circuit) interface configuration that allows local users with standard privileges to cause permanent denial of service or corrupt memory module integrity via unprotected firmware access. The vulnerability affects Ryzen 4000, 7000, 7020, 7030, 7035, 7040, 7045 series processors and Threadripper Pro 3000 WX-series, requiring local system access but no special privileges or user interaction. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been confirmed at time of analysis.

Improper Input Validation in the AMD RAID driver could allow an attacker to point to an arbitrary memory location potentially resulting in privilege escalation and arbitrary code execution. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.6), this vulnerability is low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.

Local privilege escalation in AMD Platform Management Framework (PMF) allows authenticated attackers with low privileges to unmap arbitrary memory pages, potentially executing code with elevated privileges or triggering system crashes. Affects modern AMD Ryzen mobile processors across multiple generations (6000/7000/8000/AI 300 series, embedded variants). The vulnerability enables both horizontal escalation (confidentiality compromise via changed scope in CVSS 4.0) and vertical impact (integrity/availability degradation). No evidence of active exploitation (not in CISA KEV), but the local attack vector with low complexity makes this exploitable by malware or malicious insiders once system access is obtained. EPSS data not available for risk calibration.

Out-of-bounds write in the AMD Platform Management Framework (PMF) Driver enables local authenticated users to escalate privileges on AMD Ryzen 6000/7000/8000 series processors. The vulnerability stems from improper input validation (CWE-787) allowing memory corruption beyond allocated buffer boundaries. Exploitation requires low-privilege local access with low attack complexity (CVSS 4.0: AV:L/AC:L/PR:L), making this a realistic post-compromise escalation vector. AMD released chipset driver version 7.06.02.123 addressing all affected Ryzen series. No public exploit or active exploitation confirmed at time of analysis.

Out-of-bounds read/write in AMD Platform Management Framework (PMF) driver allows local authenticated users to escalate privileges on Ryzen 6000/7000/8000 series processors. AMD has released patched chipset software version 7.06.02.123 addressing the improper input validation vulnerability. No public exploit code identified and CISA has not added this to KEV, indicating exploitation is not yet confirmed in real-world attacks despite the high CVSS score. Attackers must already have local system access with standard user privileges to exploit this vulnerability.

Privilege escalation in AMD GPIO controller driver for Windows allows authenticated local users with low privileges to execute arbitrary code with elevated rights via insecure directory permissions. Affects nearly the entire AMD processor portfolio from Ryzen 3000-series through latest EPYC 9005 and Ryzen AI 300. AMD has released patched chipset drivers (version 7.04.09.545 for most desktop/mobile products, 8.03.16.641 for server platforms) addressing the vulnerability. EPSS score and KEV status not provided in source data, but the local attack vector and user interaction requirement limit remote exploitation risk despite the 7.0 CVSS score.

Open WebUI versions up to 0.9.2 allow users with read-only access to shared notes to toggle the pin status via the POST /api/v1/notes/{id}/pin endpoint, which incorrectly checks for read permission instead of write permission. This privilege escalation enables read-only users to perform a write operation (toggling is_pinned state) that should be restricted to users with explicit write access. The vulnerability is limited to the pin operation and does not permit modification of note content, title, or access grants. Publicly available proof-of-concept demonstrates the bypass across all shared notes with read access.

CSS injection in SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP allows unauthenticated remote attackers to inject malicious Cascading Style Sheets into web pages served by the application, with exploitation requiring user interaction (clicking or accessing the affected page). The injected CSS executes in the victim's browser context, resulting in low-impact confidentiality loss; integrity and availability are not affected. CVSS 3.1 reflects the limited impact and high attack complexity required.

Command injection in @apostrophecms/cli apos create command allows arbitrary command execution when a user supplies specially crafted input during the interactive password prompt. The vulnerability exists in lib/commands/create.js line 186, where user-supplied password input is passed directly into a shell exec() call without sanitization or escaping, enabling attackers to inject shell metacharacters (;, &&, $()) to execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the user running the CLI. Exploitation requires user interaction (UI:R) and high privilege context (PR:H), but publicly available proof-of-concept demonstrates successful arbitrary code execution on Ubuntu systems with Node.js.

Improper privilege management in AMD's KVM key download component allows authenticated local attackers to swap tokens and exfiltrate sensitive cryptographic keys due to insufficient access controls, potentially enabling unauthorized access to privileged resources and compromising system confidentiality. The vulnerability requires authenticated access (PR:L) but carries high confidentiality impact (VC:H), making it a significant risk in multi-tenant or shared-access environments.
