CVE-2022-35631 3 Apple, Linux, Rapid7 3 Macos, Linux Kernel, Velociraptor 2022-08-04 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
On MacOS and Linux, it may be possible to perform a symlink attack by replacing this predictable file name with a symlink to another file and have the Velociraptor client overwrite the other file. This issue was resolved in Velociraptor 0.6.5-2.
CVE-2022-22962 2 Linux, Vmware 2 Linux Kernel, Horizon 2022-07-30 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
VMware Horizon Agent for Linux (prior to 22.x) contains a local privilege escalation as a user is able to change the default shared folder location due to a vulnerable symbolic link. Successful exploitation can result in linking to a root owned file.
CVE-2021-27851 1 Gnu 1 Guix 2022-07-29 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
A security vulnerability that can lead to local privilege escalation has been found in ’guix-daemon’. It affects multi-user setups in which ’guix-daemon’ runs locally. The attack consists in having an unprivileged user spawn a build process, for instance with `guix build`, that makes its build directory world-writable. The user then creates a hardlink to a root-owned file such as /etc/shadow in that build directory. If the user passed the --keep-failed option and the build eventually fails, the daemon changes ownership of the whole build tree, including the hardlink, to the user. At that point, the user has write access to the target file. Versions after and including v0.11.0-3298-g2608e40988, and versions prior to v1.2.0-75109-g94f0312546 are vulnerable.
CVE-2022-32450 1 Anydesk 1 Anydesk 2022-07-22 N/A 7.1 HIGH
AnyDesk 7.0.9 allows a local user to gain SYSTEM privileges via a symbolic link because the user can write to their own %APPDATA% folder (used for ad.trace and chat) but the product runs as SYSTEM when writing chat-room data there.
CVE-2022-21770 2 Google, Mediatek 10 Android, Mt6781, Mt6877 and 7 more 2022-07-14 4.6 MEDIUM 6.7 MEDIUM
In sound driver, there is a possible information disclosure due to symlink following. This could lead to local information disclosure with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: ALPS06558663; Issue ID: ALPS06558663.
CVE-2021-21125 2 Google, Microsoft 2 Chrome, Edge Chromium 2022-07-12 5.8 MEDIUM 8.1 HIGH
Insufficient policy enforcement in File System API in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 88.0.4324.96 allowed a remote attacker to bypass filesystem restrictions via a crafted HTML page.
CVE-2020-9452 1 Acronis 1 True Image 2020 2022-07-12 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
An issue was discovered in Acronis True Image 2020 24.5.22510. anti_ransomware_service.exe includes functionality to quarantine files by copying a suspected ransomware file from one directory to another using SYSTEM privileges. Because unprivileged users have write permissions in the quarantine folder, it is possible to control this privileged write with a hardlink. This means that an unprivileged user can write/overwrite arbitrary files in arbitrary folders. Escalating privileges to SYSTEM is trivial with arbitrary writes. While the quarantine feature is not enabled by default, it can be forced to copy the file to the quarantine by communicating with anti_ransomware_service.exe through its REST API.
CVE-2021-43237 1 Microsoft 4 Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows Server and 1 more 2022-07-12 6.9 MEDIUM 7.3 HIGH
Windows Setup Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
CVE-2021-44038 1 Quagga 1 Quagga 2022-07-12 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
An issue was discovered in Quagga through 1.2.4. Unsafe chown/chmod operations in the suggested spec file allow users (with control of the non-root-owned directory /etc/quagga) to escalate their privileges to root upon package installation or update.
CVE-2021-43238 1 Microsoft 10 Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows 7 and 7 more 2022-07-12 4.6 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
Windows Remote Access Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
CVE-2021-41551 1 Leostream 1 Connection Broker 2022-07-12 4.0 MEDIUM 4.9 MEDIUM
Leostream Connection Broker 9.0.40.17 allows administrators to conduct directory traversal attacks by uploading z ZIP file that contains a symbolic link.
CVE-2021-34408 1 Zoom 1 Meetings 2022-07-12 4.6 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The Zoom Client for Meetings for Windows in all versions before version 5.3.2 writes log files to a user writable directory as a privileged user during the installation or update of the client. This could allow for potential privilege escalation if a link was created between the user writable directory used and a non-user writable directory.
CVE-2021-21117 1 Google 1 Chrome 2022-07-12 6.9 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
Insufficient policy enforcement in Cryptohome in Google Chrome prior to 88.0.4324.96 allowed a local attacker to perform OS-level privilege escalation via a crafted file.
CVE-2021-45231 2 Microsoft, Trendmicro 4 Windows, Apex One, Worry-free Business Security and 1 more 2022-07-12 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
A link following privilege escalation vulnerability in Trend Micro Apex One (on-prem and SaaS) and Trend Micro Worry-Free Business Security (10.0 SP1 and Services) could allow a local attacker to create a specially crafted file with arbitrary content which could grant local privilege escalation on the affected system. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
CVE-2021-21131 2 Google, Microsoft 2 Chrome, Edge Chromium 2022-07-12 4.3 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
Insufficient policy enforcement in File System API in Google Chrome prior to 88.0.4324.96 allowed a remote attacker to bypass filesystem restrictions via a crafted HTML page.

Trend Micro Security (Consumer) 2021 and 2020 are vulnerable to a directory junction vulnerability which could allow an attacker to exploit the system to escalate privileges and create a denial of service.
CVE-2021-22488 1 Huawei 2 Emui, Magic Ui 2022-07-12 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
There is an Unauthorized file access vulnerability in Huawei Smartphone.Successful exploitation of this vulnerability by modifying soft links may tamper with the files restored from backups.
