CVE-2020-27172 1 Gdatasoftware 1 G Data 2021-07-21 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
An issue was discovered in G-Data before 25.5.9.25 using Symbolic links, it is possible to abuse the infected-file restore mechanism to achieve arbitrary write that leads to elevation of privileges.
CVE-2020-14990 1 Iobit 1 Advanced Systemcare 2021-07-21 3.6 LOW 7.1 HIGH
IOBit Advanced SystemCare Free 13.5.0.263 allows local users to gain privileges for file deletion by manipulating the Clean & Optimize feature with an NTFS junction and an Object Manager symbolic link.
CVE-2019-1267 1 Microsoft 7 Windows 10, Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and 4 more 2021-07-21 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser where a configuration file, with local privileges, is vulnerable to symbolic link and hard link attacks, aka 'Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability'.
CVE-2020-12265 1 Decompress Project 1 Decompress 2021-07-21 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
The decompress package before 4.2.1 for Node.js is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Write via ../ in an archive member, when a symlink is used, because of Directory Traversal.
CVE-2020-8948 1 Sierrawireless 1 Mobile Broadband Driver Package 2021-07-21 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
The Sierra Wireless Windows Mobile Broadband Driver Packages (MBDP) before build 5043 allows an unprivileged user to overwrite arbitrary files in arbitrary folders using hard links. An unprivileged user could leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code with system privileges.
CVE-2020-27643 1 1e 1 Client 2021-07-21 4.0 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
The %PROGRAMDATA%\1E\Client directory in 1E Client 5.0.0.745 and 4.1.0.267 allows remote authenticated users and local users to create and modify files in protected directories (where they would not normally have access to create or modify files) via the creation of a junction point to a system directory. This leads to partial privilege escalation.
CVE-2020-24562 2 Microsoft, Trendmicro 2 Windows, Officescan 2021-07-21 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
A vulnerability in Trend Micro OfficeScan XG SP1 on Microsoft Windows may allow an attacker to create a hard link to any file on the system, which then could be manipulated to gain a privilege escalation and code execution. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. This CVE is similar, but not identical to CVE-2020-24556.
CVE-2020-11446 1 Eset 8 Antivirus And Antispyware, Endpoint Antivirus, Endpoint Security and 5 more 2021-07-21 4.6 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
ESET Antivirus and Antispyware Module module 1553 through 1560 allows a user with limited access rights to create hard links in some ESET directories and then force the product to write through these links into files that would normally not be write-able by the user, thus achieving privilege escalation.
CVE-2019-19693 2 Microsoft, Trendmicro 5 Windows, Antivirus\+ Security 2020, Internet Security 2020 and 2 more 2021-07-21 3.6 LOW 7.1 HIGH
The Trend Micro Security 2020 consumer family of products contains a vulnerability that could allow a local attacker to disclose sensitive information or to create a denial-of-service condition on affected installations. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
CVE-2020-16007 3 Debian, Google, Opensuse 4 Debian Linux, Chrome, Backports Sle and 1 more 2021-07-21 4.6 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
Insufficient data validation in installer in Google Chrome prior to 86.0.4240.183 allowed a local attacker to potentially elevate privilege via a crafted filesystem.
CVE-2020-10947 1 Sophos 2 Anti-virus For Sophos Central, Anti-virus For Sophos Home 2021-07-21 6.5 MEDIUM 8.8 HIGH
Mac Endpoint for Sophos Central before 9.9.6 and Mac Endpoint for Sophos Home before 2.2.6 allow Privilege Escalation.
CVE-2020-7221 1 Mariadb 1 Mariadb 2021-07-21 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
mysql_install_db in MariaDB 10.4.7 through 10.4.11 allows privilege escalation from the mysql user account to root because chown and chmod are performed unsafely, as demonstrated by a symlink attack on a chmod 04755 of auth_pam_tool_dir/auth_pam_tool. NOTE: this does not affect the Oracle MySQL product, which implements mysql_install_db differently.
CVE-2019-12779 1 Clusterlabs 1 Libqb 2021-07-03 6.6 MEDIUM 7.1 HIGH
libqb before 1.0.5 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack, because it uses predictable filenames (under /dev/shm and /tmp) without O_EXCL.
CVE-2021-32557 1 Canonical 1 Apport 2021-06-23 3.6 LOW 7.1 HIGH
It was discovered that the process_report() function in data/whoopsie-upload-all allowed arbitrary file writes via symlinks.
CVE-2021-0094 1 Intel 1 Driver \& Support Assistant 2021-06-23 4.6 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
Improper link resolution before file access in Intel(R) DSA before version 20.11.50.9 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable an escalation of privilege via local access.
CVE-2021-32555 1 Canonical 1 Ubuntu Linux 2021-06-16 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
It was discovered that read_file() in apport/hookutils.py would follow symbolic links or open FIFOs. When this function is used by the xorg-hwe-18.04 package apport hooks, it could expose private data to other local users.
CVE-2021-32554 1 Canonical 1 Ubuntu Linux 2021-06-16 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
It was discovered that read_file() in apport/hookutils.py would follow symbolic links or open FIFOs. When this function is used by the xorg package apport hooks, it could expose private data to other local users.
CVE-2021-32553 2 Canonical, Oracle 2 Ubuntu Linux, Openjdk 2021-06-16 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
It was discovered that read_file() in apport/hookutils.py would follow symbolic links or open FIFOs. When this function is used by the openjdk-17 package apport hooks, it could expose private data to other local users.
CVE-2021-32552 1 Canonical 1 Ubuntu Linux 2021-06-15 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
It was discovered that read_file() in apport/hookutils.py would follow symbolic links or open FIFOs. When this function is used by the openjdk-16 package apport hooks, it could expose private data to other local users.
CVE-2021-32550 1 Canonical 1 Ubuntu Linux 2021-06-15 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
It was discovered that read_file() in apport/hookutils.py would follow symbolic links or open FIFOs. When this function is used by the openjdk-14 package apport hooks, it could expose private data to other local users.
