Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 19:02 – Updated: 2022-05-24 19:02
VLAI
Details

An incorrect permission vulnerability in the product installer folders for Trend Micro HouseCall for Home Networks version 5.3.1179 and below could allow an attacker to escalate privileges by placing arbitrary code on a specified folder and have that code be executed by an Administrator who is running a scan. Please note that an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system to exploit this vulnerability.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-16 13:49 – Updated: 2026-06-16 13:49
VLAI
Summary
Nuxt dev server vite-node IPC socket is world-connectable on Linux
Details

Impact

When running nuxt dev on Linux (Node.js 20+, outside Docker / StackBlitz), Nuxt's internal vite-node IPC server binds to a Linux abstract-namespace Unix socket (\0nuxt-vite-node-<pid>-<ts>.sock). Abstract sockets have no filesystem inode and therefore no permission bits: any local UID on the host that can read /proc/net/unix can enumerate the socket and connect to it.

The IPC server does not perform any peer-credential or shared-secret check before dispatching requests. The module request type passes its moduleId field straight into Vite's SSR fetchModule(), which is not gated by Vite's HTTP-layer server.fs.allow deny-list. A co-resident unprivileged local user can therefore request paths like /home/<dev>/project/.env?raw or ~/.ssh/id_rsa?raw and read the developer's secrets through the dev server's SSR plugin pipeline. The resolve request type additionally enables filesystem probing.

This affects developers running nuxt dev on shared multi-tenant Linux hosts (lab machines, shared bastions, CI runners shared between jobs without per-job container isolation). It does not affect:

  • Production builds (nuxt build / nuxt start). The IPC server only runs in development.
  • macOS or Windows developers.
  • Docker / StackBlitz environments, which already fall back to a filesystem socket.
  • Single-user laptops or per-job containerised CI.

Patches

Fixed in nuxt@4.4.7 (commit 1f9f4767) and backported to nuxt@3.21.7 (commit c293bf95).

The fix removes the abstract-namespace branch entirely. The IPC server now always binds to a filesystem Unix socket under the OS temp directory and explicitly chmod 0600s it after listen(), restricting connections to the owning UID. If the chmod fails for any reason, the server closes rather than serve requests on an unrestricted channel.

Workarounds

If you cannot upgrade immediately on an affected host:

  • Run nuxt dev inside a container or VM with no other tenants. Docker already triggers the filesystem-socket fallback in vulnerable versions and that fallback is unaffected.
  • Bind the dev process to a single-user namespace (unshare -U, rootless containers).
  • Restrict /proc/net/unix visibility via hidepid=2 mount options where applicable, though this is partial mitigation only.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-10-23 09:33 – Updated: 2024-10-23 09:33
VLAI
Details

The ProfilePress Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in all versions up to, and including, 4.11.1. This is due to insufficient verification on the user being returned by the social login token. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any existing user on the site, such as an administrator, if they have access to the email and the user does not have an already-existing account for the service returning the token.

Summary
Duplicate Advisory: Apiman has insufficient checks for read permissions
Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-j94p-hv25-rm5g. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

Apiman 1.5.7 through 2.2.3.Final has insufficient checks for read permissions within the Apiman Manager REST API. A malicious user may be able to find and subscribe to private APIs they do not have permission for, thus accessing API Management-protected resources they should not be allowed to access. The root cause of the issue is the Apiman project's accidental acceptance of a large contribution that was not fully compatible with the security model of Apiman versions before 3.0.0.Final. Because of this, 3.0.0.Final is not affected by the vulnerability.

Details

A flaw was found in the permissions of a log file created by kexec-tools. This flaw allows a local unprivileged user to read this file and leak kernel internal information from a previous panic. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality. This flaw affects kexec-tools shipped by Fedora versions prior to 2.0.21-8 and RHEL versions prior to 2.0.20-47.

GHSA-55Q2-P5PH-M3FP

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 22:28 – Updated: 2022-05-24 22:28
VLAI
Details

An exploitable local privilege elevation vulnerability exists in the file system permissions of the Win-911 Enterprise V4.20.13 install directory via “WIN-911 Mobile Runtime” service. Depending on the vector chosen, an attacker can overwrite various executables which could lead to escalation of the privileges when executed.

Mitigation MIT-1
Architecture and Design Operation

The architecture needs to access and modification attributes for files to only those users who actually require those actions.

Mitigation MIT-46
Architecture and Design

Strategy: Separation of Privilege

  • Compartmentalize the system to have "safe" areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.
  • Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
CAPEC-1: Accessing Functionality Not Properly Constrained by ACLs

In applications, particularly web applications, access to functionality is mitigated by an authorization framework. This framework maps Access Control Lists (ACLs) to elements of the application's functionality; particularly URL's for web apps. In the case that the administrator failed to specify an ACL for a particular element, an attacker may be able to access it with impunity. An attacker with the ability to access functionality not properly constrained by ACLs can obtain sensitive information and possibly compromise the entire application. Such an attacker can access resources that must be available only to users at a higher privilege level, can access management sections of the application, or can run queries for data that they otherwise not supposed to.

CAPEC-127: Directory Indexing

An adversary crafts a request to a target that results in the target listing/indexing the content of a directory as output. One common method of triggering directory contents as output is to construct a request containing a path that terminates in a directory name rather than a file name since many applications are configured to provide a list of the directory's contents when such a request is received. An adversary can use this to explore the directory tree on a target as well as learn the names of files. This can often end up revealing test files, backup files, temporary files, hidden files, configuration files, user accounts, script contents, as well as naming conventions, all of which can be used by an attacker to mount additional attacks.

CAPEC-81: Web Server Logs Tampering

Web Logs Tampering attacks involve an attacker injecting, deleting or otherwise tampering with the contents of web logs typically for the purposes of masking other malicious behavior. Additionally, writing malicious data to log files may target jobs, filters, reports, and other agents that process the logs in an asynchronous attack pattern. This pattern of attack is similar to "Log Injection-Tampering-Forging" except that in this case, the attack is targeting the logs of the web server and not the application.
