Security Vulnerabilities

An issue was discovered in BeyondTrust Privilege Management for Windows through 5.6. When specifying a program to elevate, it can typically be found within the Program Files (x86) folder and therefore uses the %ProgramFiles(x86)% environment variable. However, when this same policy gets pushed to a 32bit machine, this environment variable does not exist. Therefore, since the standard user can create a user level environment variable, they can repoint this variable to any folder the user has full control of. Then, the folder structure can be created in such a way that a rule matches and arbitrary code runs elevated.
Espeak-ng 1.52-dev was discovered to contain a buffer-overflow via the function SetUpPhonemeTable at synthdata.c.
Espeak-ng 1.52-dev was discovered to contain a Stack Buffer Underflow via the function CountVowelPosition at synthdata.c.
Espeak-ng 1.52-dev was discovered to contain a Stack Buffer Overflow via the function RemoveEnding at dictionary.c.
Espeak-ng 1.52-dev was discovered to contain a Buffer Overflow via the function ReadClause at readclause.c.
Espeak-ng 1.52-dev was discovered to contain a Floating Point Exception via the function PeaksToHarmspect at wavegen.c.
quiche v. 0.15.0 through 0.19.0 was discovered to be vulnerable to unbounded queuing of path validation messages, which could lead to excessive resource consumption.
QUIC path validation (RFC 9000 Section 8.2) requires that the recipient of a PATH_CHALLENGE frame responds by sending a PATH_RESPONSE. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit the vulnerability by sending PATH_CHALLENGE frames and manipulating the connection (e.g. by restricting the peer's congestion window size) so that PATH_RESPONSE frames can only be sent at the slower rate than they are received; leading to storage of path validation data in an unbounded queue.
Quiche versions greater than 0.19.0 address this problem.
An issue was discovered in BeyondTrust Privilege Management for Windows through 5.6. When adding the Add Admin token to a process, and specifying that it runs at medium integrity with the user owning the process, this security token can be stolen and applied to arbitrary processes.
A vulnerability has been identified in RUGGEDCOM RM1224 LTE(4G) EU (6GK6108-4AM00-2BA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), RUGGEDCOM RM1224 LTE(4G) NAM (6GK6108-4AM00-2DA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M804PB (6GK5804-0AP00-2AA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M812-1 ADSL-Router (6GK5812-1AA00-2AA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M812-1 ADSL-Router (6GK5812-1BA00-2AA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M816-1 ADSL-Router (6GK5816-1AA00-2AA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M816-1 ADSL-Router (6GK5816-1BA00-2AA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M826-2 SHDSL-Router (6GK5826-2AB00-2AB2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M874-2 (6GK5874-2AA00-2AA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M874-3 (6GK5874-3AA00-2AA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M876-3 (6GK5876-3AA02-2BA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M876-3 (ROK) (6GK5876-3AA02-2EA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M876-4 (6GK5876-4AA10-2BA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M876-4 (EU) (6GK5876-4AA00-2BA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE M876-4 (NAM) (6GK5876-4AA00-2DA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE MUM853-1 (EU) (6GK5853-2EA00-2DA1) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE MUM856-1 (EU) (6GK5856-2EA00-3DA1) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE MUM856-1 (RoW) (6GK5856-2EA00-3AA1) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE S615 EEC LAN-Router (6GK5615-0AA01-2AA2) (All versions < V7.2.2), SCALANCE S615 LAN-Router (6GK5615-0AA00-2AA2) (All versions < V7.2.2). An Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command with root privileges vulnerability exists in the parsing of the IPSEC configuration. This could allow malicious local administrators to issue commands on system level after a new connection is established.
A vulnerability has been identified in SINEC INS (All versions < V1.0 SP2 Update 2). The Web UI of affected devices does not check the length of parameters in certain conditions. This allows a malicious admin to crash the server by sending a crafted request to the server. The server will automatically restart.
