Parallels Desktop Technical Data Reporter Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability.
This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Parallels Desktop. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target host system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the Technical Data Reporter component. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the service to change the permissions of arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-25014.
The Remote Application Server in Parallels RAS before 19.2.23975 does not segment virtualized applications from the server, which allows a remote attacker to achieve remote code execution via standard kiosk breakout techniques.
The Web Client of Parallels Remote Application Server v18.0 is vulnerable to Host Header Injection attacks. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted payload injected into the Host header.
Parallels Remote Application Server (RAS) 18 allows remote attackers to discover an intranet IP address because submission of the login form (even with blank credentials) provides this address to the attacker's client for use as a "host" value. In other words, after an attacker's web browser sent a request to the login form, it would automatically send a second request to a RASHTML5Gateway/socket.io URI with something like "host":"192.168.###.###" in the POST data.
