| Uncontrolled search path in some Intel(R) Processor Identification Utility software before versions 6.10.34.1129, 7.1.6 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Uncontrolled search path in some Intel(R) PCM software before version 202311 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Uncontrolled search path for some Intel(R) oneAPI Compiler software before version 2024.1 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| A potential DLL hijacking vulnerability in the SanDisk PrivateAccess application for Windows that could lead to arbitrary code execution in the context of the system user. This vulnerability is only exploitable locally if an attacker has access to a copy of the user's vault or has already gained access into a user's system. This attack is limited to the system in context and cannot be propagated. |
| Uncontrolled search path element issue exists in SonicDICOM Media Viewer 2.3.2 and earlier, which may lead to insecurely loading Dynamic Link Libraries. As a result, arbitrary code may be executed with the privileges of the running application. |
| Uncontrolled search path for some Intel(R) oneAPI Level Zero software may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Uncontrolled search path in some Intel(R) High Level Synthesis Compiler software for Intel(R) Quartus(R) Prime Pro Edition Software before version 24.1 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Netdata is an open source observability tool. In affected versions the `ndsudo` tool shipped with affected versions of the Netdata Agent allows an attacker to run arbitrary programs with root permissions. The `ndsudo` tool is packaged as a `root`-owned executable with the SUID bit set. It only runs a restricted set of external commands, but its search paths are supplied by the `PATH` environment variable. This allows an attacker to control where `ndsudo` looks for these commands, which may be a path the attacker has write access to. This may lead to local privilege escalation. This vulnerability has been addressed in versions 1.45.3 and 1.45.2-169. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability. |
| There is a defect in the CPython standard library module “mimetypes” where on Windows the default list of known file locations are writable meaning other users can create invalid files to cause MemoryError to be raised on Python runtime startup or have file extensions be interpreted as the incorrect file type.
This defect is caused by the default locations of Linux and macOS platforms (such as “/etc/mime.types”) also being used on Windows, where they are user-writable locations (“C:\etc\mime.types”).
To work-around this issue a user can call mimetypes.init() with an empty list (“[]”) on Windows platforms to avoid using the default list of known file locations. |
| Uncontrolled search path in the Intel(R) Graphics Driver installers for versions 15.40 and 15.45 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Uncontrolled search path for the FPGA Support Package for the Intel(R) oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler software for Windows before version 2024.2 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| An issue was discovered in the Agent in Delinea Privilege Manager (formerly Thycotic Privilege Manager) before 12.0.1096 on Windows. Sometimes, a non-administrator user can copy a crafted DLL file to a temporary directory (used by .NET Shadow Copies) such that privilege escalation can occur if the core agent service loads that file. |
| Diebold Nixdorf – CWE-427: Uncontrolled Search Path Element |
| `gix-path` is a crate of the `gitoxide` project (an implementation of `git` written in Rust) dealing paths and their conversions. Prior to version 0.10.11, `gix-path` runs `git` to find the path of a configuration file associated with the `git` installation, but improperly resolves paths containing unusual or non-ASCII characters, in rare cases enabling a local attacker to inject configuration leading to code execution. Version 0.10.11 contains a patch for the issue.
In `gix_path::env`, the underlying implementation of the `installation_config` and `installation_config_prefix` functions calls `git config -l --show-origin` to find the path of a file to treat as belonging to the `git` installation. Affected versions of `gix-path` do not pass `-z`/`--null` to cause `git` to report literal paths. Instead, to cover the occasional case that `git` outputs a quoted path, they attempt to parse the path by stripping the quotation marks. The problem is that, when a path is quoted, it may change in substantial ways beyond the concatenation of quotation marks. If not reversed, these changes can result in another valid path that is not equivalent to the original.
On a single-user system, it is not possible to exploit this, unless `GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM` and `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL` have been set to unusual values or Git has been installed in an unusual way. Such a scenario is not expected. Exploitation is unlikely even on a multi-user system, though it is plausible in some uncommon configurations or use cases. In general, exploitation is more likely to succeed if users are expected to install `git` themselves, and are likely to do so in predictable locations; locations where `git` is installed, whether due to usernames in their paths or otherwise, contain characters that `git` quotes by default in paths, such as non-English letters and accented letters; a custom `system`-scope configuration file is specified with the `GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM` environment variable, and its path is in an unusual location or has strangely named components; or a `system`-scope configuration file is absent, empty, or suppressed by means other than `GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM`. Currently, `gix-path` can treat a `global`-scope configuration file as belonging to the installation if no higher scope configuration file is available. This increases the likelihood of exploitation even on a system where `git` is installed system-wide in an ordinary way. However, exploitation is expected to be very difficult even under any combination of those factors. |
| SAP Product Lifecycle Costing Client (versions below 4.7.1) application loads on demand a DLL that is available with Windows OS. This DLL is loaded from the computer running SAP Product Lifecycle Costing Client application. That particular DLL could be replaced by a malicious one, that could execute commands as being part of SAP Product Lifecycle Costing Client Application. On a successful attack, it can cause a low impact to confidentiality but no impact to the integrity and availability of the application. |
| Uncontrolled search path for some Intel(R) oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler software before version 2025.0.0 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| Uncontrolled search path for some Intel(R) Graphics Driver software may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. |
| A DLL hijacking vulnerability in iTop VPN v16.0 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via placing a crafted DLL file into the path \ProgramData\iTop VPN\Downloader\vpn6. |
| In Electronic Arts Dragon Age Origins 1.05, the DAUpdaterSVC service contains an unquoted service path vulnerability. This service is configured with insecure permissions, allowing users to modify the executable file path used by the service. The service runs with NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges, enabling attackers to escalate privileges by replacing or placing a malicious executable in the service path. |
| NetMod VPN Client 5.3.1 is vulnerable to DLL injection, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code by placing a malicious DLL in a directory where the application loads dependencies. This vulnerability arises due to the improper validation of dynamically loaded libraries. |
