A vulnerability in the search path processing of Cisco Directory Connector could allow an authenticated, local attacker to load a binary of their choosing. The vulnerability is due to uncontrolled search path elements. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by placing a binary of their choosing earlier in the search path utilized by Cisco Directory Connector to locate and load required resources.

An exploitable privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Shimo VPN 4.1.5.1 helper service in the configureRoutingWithCommand function. A user with local access can use this vulnerability to raise their privileges to root. An attacker would need local access to the machine for a successful exploit.

An exploitable privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Shimo VPN 4.1.5.1 helper service in the writeConfig functionality. A non-root user is able to write a file anywhere on the system. A user with local access can use this vulnerability to raise their privileges to root. An attacker would need local access to the machine to exploit it successfully.

An exploitable privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Shimo VPN 4.1.5.1 helper service in the disconnectService functionality. A non-root user is able to kill any privileged process on the system. An attacker would need local access to the machine for a successful exploit.

An exploitable privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Shimo VPN 4.1.5.1 helper service in the deleteConfig functionality. The program is able to delete any protected file on the system. An attacker would need local access to the machine to successfully exploit the bug.

An exploitable privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Shimo VPN helper service due to improper validation of code signing. A user with local access can use this vulnerability to raise their privileges to root. An attacker would need local access to the machine to successfully exploit this bug.

An exploitable privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Shimo VPN 4.1.5.1 helper service in the RunVpncScript command. The command takes a user-supplied script argument and executes it under root context. A user with local access can use this vulnerability to raise their privileges to root. An attacker would need local access to the machine to successfully exploit this bug.

A restricted environment escape vulnerability exists in the “kiosk mode” function of Capsule Technologies SmartLinx Neuron 2 medical information collection devices running versions 9.0.3 or lower. A specific series of keyboard inputs can escape the restricted environment, resulting in full administrator access to the underlying operating system. An attacker can connect to the device via USB port with a keyboard or other HID device to trigger this vulnerability.

An exploitable local privilege elevation vulnerability exists in the file system permissions of GOG Galaxy's install directory. An attacker can overwrite an executable that is launched as a system service on boot by default to exploit this vulnerability and execute arbitrary code with system privileges.

A remote denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the way the Nouveau Display Driver (the default Ubuntu Nvidia display driver) handles GPU shader execution. A specially crafted pixel shader can cause remote denial-of-service issues. An attacker can provide a specially crafted website to trigger this vulnerability. This vulnerability can be triggered remotely after the user visits a malformed website. No further user interaction is required. Vulnerable versions include Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (linux 4.15.0-29-generic x86_64), Nouveau Display Driver NV117 (vermagic: 4.15.0-29-generic SMP mod_unload).
