CVE-2023-21740: Windows Media Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that a user open a specially crafted file. * In an email attack scenario, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending the specially crafted file to the user and convincing the user to open the file. * In a web-based attack scenario, an attacker could host a website (or leverage a compromised website that accepts or hosts user-provided content) containing a specially crafted file designed to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker would have no way to force users to visit the website. Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to click a link, typically by way of an enticement in an email or instant message, and then convince them to open the specially crafted file.

CVE-2023-49581

SAP GUI for Windows and SAP GUI for Java allow an unauthenticated attacker to access information which would otherwise be restricted and confidential. In addition, this vulnerability allows the unauthenticated attacker to write data to a database table. By doing so the attacker could increase response times of the AS ABAP, leading to mild impact on availability.

CVE-2023-49580

SAP GUI for Windows and SAP GUI for Java - versions SAP_BASIS 755, SAP_BASIS 756, SAP_BASIS 757, SAP_BASIS 758, allow an unauthenticated attacker to access information which would otherwise be restricted and confidential. In addition, this vulnerability allows the unauthenticated attacker to create Layout configurations of the ABAP List Viewer and with this causing a mild impact on integrity and availability, e.g. also increasing the response times of the AS ABAP.

CVE-2023-36648: CVCN

Missing authentication in the internal data streaming system in ProLion CryptoSpike 3.0.15P2 allows remote unauthenticated users to read potentially sensitive information and deny service to users by directly reading and writing data in Apache Kafka (as consumer and producer).

CVE-2020-12613: Privilege Management Release Notes

An issue was discovered in BeyondTrust Privilege Management for Windows through 5.6. An attacker can spawn a process with multiple users as part of the security token (prior to Avecto elevation). When Avecto elevates the process, it removes the user who is launching the process, but not the second user. Therefore this second user still retains access and can give permission to the process back to the first user.
