CVE-2024-14012 2026-10-02 N/A N/A
Potential privilege escalation issue in Revenera InstallShield version 2023 R1 running a renamed Setup.exe on Windows. When a local administrator executes a renamed Setup.exe, the MPR.dll may get loaded from an insecure location and can result in a privilege escalation. The issue has been fixed in versions 2023 R2 and later.
CVE-2026-19547 2026-09-30 N/A N/A
Ghostscript for Windows is vulnerable to local privilege escalation through PostScript resource file hijacking. Due to the application searching for PostScript resource files in predictable paths under C:\\gs\\ that do not exist by default on Windows installations, combined with Windows default ACLs allowing any authenticated user to create directories at the root of C:\\, an attacker who is an authenticated local user can create the expected directory structure and plant a malicious PostScript file. When any user or service subsequently runs Ghostscript, the planted file is automatically loaded and executed with the full privileges of the Ghostscript process. This results in full compromise of Ghostscript process context, as well as running arbitrary code on the machine with Ghostscript process privileges. This issue was fixed in version 10.08.0.
CVE-2026-100310 2026-09-30 N/A 7.0 HIGH
GNU libextractor before 1.16 loads plugins from an untrusted search path specified by the LIBEXTRACTOR_PREFIX environment variable without proper privilege checks. A local attacker can exploit this by setting LIBEXTRACTOR_PREFIX to a directory containing a malicious plugin that executes arbitrary code with elevated privileges when loaded by a setuid or setgid program.
CVE-2026-87723 2026-09-29 N/A N/A
In Google fuse-archive versions prior to 1.24, an attacker who can prepend a directory to PATH or write a malicious binary to an attacker-controlled or writable directory appearing in PATH can hijack the execution pathway. This allows the attacker to execute arbitrary local code under the security context of the user running the fuse-archive process. The issue was partially mitigated in version 1.22 and fully resolved in 1.24 via refined selective PATH filtering.
CVE-2024-21922 2026-09-26 N/A 7.3 HIGH
A DLL hijacking vulnerability in AMD StoreMI™ could allow an attacker to achieve privilege escalation, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.
CVE-2024-21923 2026-09-26 N/A 7.3 HIGH
Incorrect default permissions in AMD StoreMI™ could allow an attacker to achieve privilege escalation potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.
CVE-2025-64785 3 Adobe, Apple, Microsoft 6 Acrobat, Acrobat Dc, Acrobat Reader and 3 more 2026-09-25 N/A 7.8 HIGH
Acrobat Reader versions 24.001.30264, 20.005.30793, 25.001.20982, 24.001.30273, 20.005.30803 and earlier are affected by an Untrusted Search Path vulnerability that might allow attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. If the application uses a search path to locate critical resources such as programs, an attacker could modify that search path to point to a malicious program, which the targeted application would then execute. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that the user needs to open a malicious file.
CVE-2026-69785 1 Microsoft 13 Windows 10 1607, Windows 10 1809, Windows 10 21h2 and 10 more 2026-09-24 N/A 7.8 HIGH
Untrusted search path in Windows Smart Card allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
CVE-2026-68492 2026-09-24 N/A N/A
An untrusted search path vulnerability in Plesk from 18.0.34 before 18.0.80.8 and 18.0.81 before 18.0.81.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code as root via the "Plesk RESTful API" extension from 2.4.2 before 2.4.7.
CVE-2026-69328 1 Microsoft 12 Windows 10 1607, Windows 10 1809, Windows 10 21h2 and 9 more 2026-09-24 N/A 7.8 HIGH
Untrusted search path in Windows Storage allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
CVE-2026-78574 1 Okta 1 Hyperdrive 2026-09-23 N/A 7.5 HIGH
The Okta Hyperdrive Integration plugin resolves a required assembly using a registry path within the current user's hive without integrity verification. The referenced path is loaded via Assembly.LoadFrom without signature validation, resulting in an unverified assembly executing within the context of the host process or elevated installer.
CVE-2026-81697 2026-09-23 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
openssl_encrypt (pip package openssl-encrypt) versions <= 1.4.8 contain a CWD-relative configuration file resolution flaw in crypt_settings.py, where CONFIG_FILE (originally the absolute per-user path ~/.crypt_settings.json) is reassigned at line 84 to the bare relative name 'crypt_settings.json'. As a result, the legacy Tk GUI's SettingsTab reads and writes KDF settings from crypt_settings.json in the process launch (current working) directory instead of the user's home directory. An attacker who plants a malicious crypt_settings.json (e.g. sha256:1 with all memory-hard KDFs disabled) can silently downgrade encryption performed in that GUI session to roughly one hash round, bypassing the weak-KDF preflight and enabling offline brute-force attacks against the resulting ciphertext. Fixed in 1.4.9.
CVE-2026-0307 2026-09-11 N/A N/A
Multiple local privilege escalation vulnerabilities in the Palo Alto Networks GlobalProtect™ app allows a local user to escalate their privileges to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM on Windows and root on macOS and Linux. This enables a non-administrative user to execute arbitrary commands with administrative privileges. This GlobalProtect app on iOS, Android and ChromeOS is not impacted.
CVE-2026-80159 3 Adobe, Apple, Microsoft 5 Acrobat, Acrobat Dc, Acrobat Reader Dc and 2 more 2026-09-10 N/A 4.0 MEDIUM
Acrobat Reader is affected by an Untrusted Search Path vulnerability that could result in privilege escalation. An attacker with high privileges could leverage this vulnerability to gain elevated access. Exploit depends on conditions beyond the attacker's control. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
CVE-2026-81192 2026-09-10 N/A 7.0 HIGH
`OpenTelemetry.Resources.Host` NuGet package, which provides OpenTelemetry resource detectors for host, is affected by an untrusted search path vulnerability on macOS. Prior to version 1.16.0-beta.2, the `host.id` resource attribute detector launches the `sh` and `ioreg` executables by bare name rather than by absolute path, so both are resolved through the `PATH` environment variable. A local attacker who is less privileged than the host application, and who can influence `PATH` or write to a directory that appears in `PATH` ahead of the system directories, can have an arbitrary binary executed in the application's security context, resulting in local code execution/privilege escalation. This vulnerability only affect macOS hosts - Linux and Windows hosts are unaffected. Version 1.16.0-beta.2 contains a patch. No known workarounds are available.
CVE-2026-39883 1 Opentelemetry 1 Opentelemetry 2026-09-09 N/A 7.0 HIGH
OpenTelemetry-Go is the Go implementation of OpenTelemetry. From 1.15.0 to 1.42.0, the fix for CVE-2026-24051 changed the Darwin ioreg command to use an absolute path but left the BSD kenv command using a bare name, allowing the same PATH hijacking attack on BSD and Solaris platforms. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.43.0.
CVE-2026-84226 2026-09-08 N/A N/A
OpenVPN version 2.5.0 through 2.6.22 and 2.7_alpha1 through 2.7.6 on Windows allows local authenticated users to perform a binary planting attack during network configuration steps
CVE-2026-82862 2026-09-01 N/A 8.4 HIGH
Hulumi versions before v1.3.2 resolve the threat-model helper script from an unsafe root, allowing workspace files to shadow the intended helper script. Attackers can place malicious files in the workspace to execute arbitrary code during local skill execution.
CVE-2026-75768 1 Adobe 1 Substance 3d Painter 2026-08-31 N/A 7.8 HIGH
Substance3D - Painter is affected by an Untrusted Search Path vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
CVE-2026-14673 1 Postgresql 1 Postgresql 2026-08-29 N/A 3.8 LOW
Untrusted search path in PostgreSQL amcheck allows a grantee of amcheck function EXECUTE privilege to execute arbitrary functions as the owners of expression indexes that depend on the search path, via setting a hostile search path before calling the amcheck function. Within major versions 18, 16, 15, and 14, minor versions before PostgreSQL 18.6, 16.15, 15.19, and 14.24 are affected. PostgreSQL 17 is unaffected.
