This is fixed in November 2024 IR, May 2024 Patch 10, February 2024 Patch 14, November 2023 Patch 16, August 2023 Patch 16, May 2023 Patch 18, and February 2023 Patch 15.
An issue in the wssrvc.exe service of QuickHeal Antivirus Pro Version v24.0 and Quick Heal Total Security v24.0 allows authenticated attackers to escalate privileges.
An issue in TOTOLINK Bluetooth Wireless Adapter A600UB allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary code via the WifiAutoInstallDriver.exe and MSASN1.dll components.
An attacker with local access the to medical office computer can
escalate his Windows user privileges to "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" by
exploiting a race condition in the Elefant Update Service during the
repair or update process. When using the repair function, the service queries the server for a
list of files and their hashes. In addition, instructions to execute
binaries to finalize the repair process are included. The executables are executed as "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" after they are
copied over to the user writable installation folder (C:\Elefant1). This
means that a user can overwrite either "PostESUUpdate.exe" or
"Update_OpenJava.exe" in the time frame after the copy and before the
execution of the final repair step. The overwritten executable is then executed as "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM".
Attackers with local access to the medical office computer can
escalate their Windows user privileges to "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" by
overwriting one of two Elefant service binaries with weak permissions. The default installation directory of Elefant is "C:\Elefant1" which is
writable for all users. In addition, the Elefant installer registers two
Firebird database services which are running as “NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM”.
Path: C:\Elefant1\Firebird_2\bin\fbserver.exe
Path: C:\Elefant1\Firebird_2\bin\fbguard.exe
Both service binaries are user writable. This means that a local
attacker can rename one of the service binaries, replace the service
executable with a new executable, and then restart the system. Once the
system has rebooted, the new service binary is executed as "NT
AUTHORITY\SYSTEM".
Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in WatchGuard EPDR, Panda AD360 and Panda Dome on Windows (PSANHost.exe module) allows arbitrary file delete with SYSTEM permissions.
The mFolio Lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to file uploads due to a missing capability check in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.1. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the SVG file or upload arbitrary EXE files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible if the attacker can also gain access to run the .exe file, or trick a site visitor into downloading and running the .exe file.
An issue in MobaXterm v24.2 allows a local attacker to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code via the remove function of the MobaXterm MSI is spawning one Administrative cmd (conhost.exe)
A DLL hijacking vulnerability in VegaBird Vooki 5.2.9 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code / maintain persistence via placing a crafted DLL file in the same directory as Vooki.exe.
A DLL hijacking vulnerability in VegaBird Yaazhini 2.0.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code / maintain persistence via placing a crafted DLL file in the same directory as Yaazhini.exe.
HIGH-LEIT V05.08.01.03 and HIGH-LEIT V04.25.00.00 to 4.25.01.01 for Windows from Vivavis contain an insecure file and folder permissions vulnerability in prunsrv.exe. A regular user (non-admin) can exploit the weak folder and file permissions to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM.
Improper path validation in promecefpluginhost.exe in Kingsoft WPS Office version ranging from 12.2.0.13110 to 12.2.0.16412 (exclusive) on Windows allows an attacker to load an arbitrary Windows library.
The vulnerability was found weaponized as a single-click exploit in the form of a deceptive spreadsheet document
Insecure Permissions vulnerability in Micro-Star International Co., Ltd MSI Center v.2.0.36.0 allows a local attacker to escalate privileges via the Export System Info function in MSI.CentralServer.exe
An issue was discovered in Quest KACE Agent for Windows 12.0.38 and 13.1.23.0. An unquoted Windows search path vulnerability exists in the KSchedulerSvc.exe and AMPTools.exe components. This allows local attackers to execute code of their choice with NT Authority\SYSTEM privileges.
An issue was discovered in Quest KACE Agent for Windows 12.0.38 and 13.1.23.0. An Arbitrary file delete vulnerability exists in the KSchedulerSvc.exe component. Local attackers can delete any file of their choice with NT Authority\SYSTEM privileges.
An issue was discovered in Quest KACE Agent for Windows 12.0.38 and 13.1.23.0. An Arbitrary file create vulnerability exists in the KSchedulerSvc.exe, KUserAlert.exe, and Runkbot.exe components. This allows local attackers to create any file of their choice with NT Authority\SYSTEM privileges.
An unquoted service path vulnerability in Terratec DMX_6Fire USB v.1.23.0.02 allows a local attacker to escalate privileges via the Program.exe component.
Rust is a programming language. The Rust Security Response WG was notified that the Rust standard library prior to version 1.77.2 did not properly escape arguments when invoking batch files (with the `bat` and `cmd` extensions) on Windows using the `Command`. An attacker able to control the arguments passed to the spawned process could execute arbitrary shell commands by bypassing the escaping. The severity of this vulnerability is critical for those who invoke batch files on Windows with untrusted arguments. No other platform or use is affected.
The `Command::arg` and `Command::args` APIs state in their documentation that the arguments will be passed to the spawned process as-is, regardless of the content of the arguments, and will not be evaluated by a shell. This means it should be safe to pass untrusted input as an argument.
On Windows, the implementation of this is more complex than other platforms, because the Windows API only provides a single string containing all the arguments to the spawned process, and it's up to the spawned process to split them. Most programs use the standard C run-time argv, which in practice results in a mostly consistent way arguments are splitted.
One exception though is `cmd.exe` (used among other things to execute batch files), which has its own argument splitting logic. That forces the standard library to implement custom escaping for arguments passed to batch files. Unfortunately it was reported that our escaping logic was not thorough enough, and it was possible to pass malicious arguments that would result in arbitrary shell execution.
Due to the complexity of `cmd.exe`, we didn't identify a solution that would correctly escape arguments in all cases. To maintain our API guarantees, we improved the robustness of the escaping code, and changed the `Command` API to return an `InvalidInput` error when it cannot safely escape an argument. This error will be emitted when spawning the process.
The fix is included in Rust 1.77.2. Note that the new escaping logic for batch files errs on the conservative side, and could reject valid arguments. Those who implement the escaping themselves or only handle trusted inputs on Windows can also use the `CommandExt::raw_arg` method to bypass the standard library's escaping logic.
