Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 19:16 – Updated: 2022-07-13 00:01An arbitrary file creation by privilege escalation vulnerability in Trend Micro Apex One, Apex One as a Service, Worry-Free Business Security 10.0 SP1, and Worry-Free Business Security Services could allow a local attacker to create an arbitrary file with higher privileges that could lead to a denial-of-service (DoS) on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

GHSA-2PXW-R47W-4P8C
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-09-05 15:45 – Updated: 2025-10-22 19:20Impact
An attacker can use crafted requests to bypass metadata bucket name checking and put an object into any bucket while processing PostPolicyBucket. To carry out this attack, the attacker requires credentials with arn:aws:s3:::* permission, as well as enabled Console API access.
Patches
commit 67f4ba154a27a1b06e48bfabda38355a010dfca5
Author: Aditya Manthramurthy <donatello@users.noreply.github.com>
Date: Sun Mar 19 21:15:20 2023 -0700
fix: post policy request security bypass (#16849)
Workarounds
Browser API access must be enabled turning off MINIO_BROWSER=off allows for this workaround.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-16 12:32 – Updated: 2026-06-16 12:32The LatePoint – Calendar Booking Plugin for Appointments and Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation to Administrator in versions up to, and including, 5.5.1. The plugin chains three independent flaws that together allow an authenticated Agent (Agent+) to overwrite a WordPress Administrator's password without ever invoking an Administrator-only API. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Agent access and above, to elevate their privileges to Administrator.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-05-14 21:34 – Updated: 2024-05-14 22:32An issue in Reportico Web before v.8.1.0. This vulnerability arises from the failure of the web application to properly invalidate session cookies upon logout. When a user logs out of the application, the session cookie should be invalidated to prevent unauthorized access. However, due to the oversight in the application's implementation, the session cookie remains active even after logout. Consequently, if an attacker obtains the session cookie, they can exploit it to access the user's session and perform unauthorized actions.

Mitigation MIT-1
Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
Mitigation MIT-48
Strategy: Separation of Privilege
Follow the principle of least privilege when assigning access rights to entities in a software system.
Mitigation MIT-49
Strategy: Separation of Privilege
Consider following the principle of separation of privilege. Require multiple conditions to be met before permitting access to a system resource.
CAPEC-122: Privilege Abuse
An adversary is able to exploit features of the target that should be reserved for privileged users or administrators but are exposed to use by lower or non-privileged accounts. Access to sensitive information and functionality must be controlled to ensure that only authorized users are able to access these resources.
CAPEC-233: Privilege Escalation
An adversary exploits a weakness enabling them to elevate their privilege and perform an action that they are not supposed to be authorized to perform.
CAPEC-58: Restful Privilege Elevation
An adversary identifies a Rest HTTP (Get, Put, Delete) style permission method allowing them to perform various malicious actions upon server data due to lack of access control mechanisms implemented within the application service accepting HTTP messages.
