Local privilege escalation during installation due to improper soft link handling. The following products are affected: Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office (Windows) before build 40278, Acronis True Image OEM (Windows) before build 42575.
CVE-2022-45798 2 Microsoft, Trendmicro 2 Windows, Apex One 2026-06-17 N/A 7.8 HIGH
A link following vulnerability in the Damage Cleanup Engine component of Trend Micro Apex One and Trend Micro Apex One as a Service could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges by creating a symbolic link and abusing the service to delete a file. 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-2022-45440 1 Zyxel 2 Ax7501-b0, Ax7501-b0 Firmware 2026-06-17 N/A 4.4 MEDIUM
A vulnerability exists in the FTP server of the Zyxel AX7501-B0 firmware prior to V5.17(ABPC.3)C0, which processes symbolic links on external storage media. A local authenticated attacker with administrator privileges could abuse this vulnerability to access the root file system by creating a symbolic link on external storage media, such as a USB flash drive, and then logging into the FTP server on a vulnerable device.
CVE-2022-45412 4 Apple, Google, Linux and 1 more 6 Macos, Android, Linux Kernel and 3 more 2026-06-17 N/A 8.8 HIGH
When resolving a symlink such as <code>file:///proc/self/fd/1</code>, an error message may be produced where the symlink was resolved to a string containing unitialized memory in the buffer. <br>*This bug only affects Thunderbird on Unix-based operated systems (Android, Linux, MacOS). Windows is unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 102.5, Thunderbird < 102.5, and Firefox < 107.
CVE-2022-44747 1 Acronis 1 Cyber Protect Home Office 2026-06-17 N/A 7.8 HIGH
Local privilege escalation due to improper soft link handling. The following products are affected: Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office (Windows) before build 40107.
CVE-2022-43293 1 Wacom 1 Driver 2026-06-17 N/A 5.9 MEDIUM
Wacom Driver 6.3.46-1 for Windows was discovered to contain an arbitrary file write vulnerability via the component \Wacom\Wacom_Tablet.exe.
CVE-2022-42725 1 Linuxmint 1 Warpinator 2026-06-17 N/A 7.5 HIGH
Warpinator through 1.2.14 allows access outside of an intended directory, as demonstrated by symbolic directory links.
CVE-2022-42292 2 Microsoft, Nvidia 2 Windows, Geforce Experience 2026-06-17 N/A 5.0 MEDIUM
NVIDIA GeForce Experience contains a vulnerability in the NVContainer component, where a user without administrator privileges can create a symbolic link to a file that requires elevated privileges to write to or modify, which may lead to denial of service, escalation of privilege or limited data tampering.
CVE-2022-42291 2 Microsoft, Nvidia 2 Windows, Geforce Experience 2026-06-17 N/A 8.2 HIGH
NVIDIA GeForce Experience contains a vulnerability in the installer, where a user installing the NVIDIA GeForce Experience software may inadvertently delete data from a linked location, which may lead to data tampering. An attacker does not have explicit control over the exploitation of this vulnerability, which requires the user to explicitly launch the installer from the compromised directory.
CVE-2022-41973 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Opensvc 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Multipath-tools 2026-06-17 N/A 7.8 HIGH
multipath-tools 0.7.7 through 0.9.x before 0.9.2 allows local users to obtain root access, as exploited in conjunction with CVE-2022-41974. Local users able to access /dev/shm can change symlinks in multipathd due to incorrect symlink handling, which could lead to controlled file writes outside of the /dev/shm directory. This could be used indirectly for local privilege escalation to root.
CVE-2022-40710 2 Microsoft, Trendmicro 2 Windows, Deep Security Agent 2026-06-17 N/A 7.8 HIGH
A link following vulnerability in Trend Micro Deep Security 20 and Cloud One - Workload Security Agent for Windows could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges 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.
CVE-2022-40143 2 Microsoft, Trendmicro 2 Windows, Apex One 2026-06-17 N/A 7.3 HIGH
A link following local privilege escalation vulnerability in Trend Micro Apex One and Trend Micro Apex One as a Service servers could allow a local attacker to abuse an insecure directory that could allow a low-privileged user to run arbitrary code with elevated privileges. 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-2022-3592 2 Fedoraproject, Samba 2 Fedora, Samba 2026-06-17 N/A 6.5 MEDIUM
A symlink following vulnerability was found in Samba, where a user can create a symbolic link that will make 'smbd' escape the configured share path. This flaw allows a remote user with access to the exported part of the file system under a share via SMB1 unix extensions or NFS to create symlinks to files outside the 'smbd' configured share path and gain access to another restricted server's filesystem.
CVE-2022-39253 4 Apple, Debian, Fedoraproject and 1 more 4 Xcode, Debian Linux, Fedora and 1 more 2026-06-17 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
Git is an open source, scalable, distributed revision control system. Versions prior to 2.30.6, 2.31.5, 2.32.4, 2.33.5, 2.34.5, 2.35.5, 2.36.3, and 2.37.4 are subject to exposure of sensitive information to a malicious actor. When performing a local clone (where the source and target of the clone are on the same volume), Git copies the contents of the source's `$GIT_DIR/objects` directory into the destination by either creating hardlinks to the source contents, or copying them (if hardlinks are disabled via `--no-hardlinks`). A malicious actor could convince a victim to clone a repository with a symbolic link pointing at sensitive information on the victim's machine. This can be done either by having the victim clone a malicious repository on the same machine, or having them clone a malicious repository embedded as a bare repository via a submodule from any source, provided they clone with the `--recurse-submodules` option. Git does not create symbolic links in the `$GIT_DIR/objects` directory. The problem has been patched in the versions published on 2022-10-18, and backported to v2.30.x. Potential workarounds: Avoid cloning untrusted repositories using the `--local` optimization when on a shared machine, either by passing the `--no-local` option to `git clone` or cloning from a URL that uses the `file://` scheme. Alternatively, avoid cloning repositories from untrusted sources with `--recurse-submodules` or run `git config --global protocol.file.allow user`.
CVE-2022-39215 1 Tauri 1 Tauri 2026-06-17 N/A 8.3 HIGH
Tauri is a framework for building binaries for all major desktop platforms. Due to missing canonicalization when `readDir` is called recursively, it was possible to display directory listings outside of the defined `fs` scope. This required a crafted symbolic link or junction folder inside an allowed path of the `fs` scope. No arbitrary file content could be leaked. The issue has been resolved in version 1.0.6 and the implementation now properly checks if the requested (sub) directory is a symbolic link outside of the defined `scope`. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade should disable the `readDir` endpoint in the `allowlist` inside the `tauri.conf.json`.
CVE-2022-38730 1 Docker 1 Desktop 2026-06-17 N/A 6.3 MEDIUM
Docker Desktop for Windows before 4.6 allows attackers to overwrite any file through the windowscontainers/start dockerBackendV2 API by controlling the data-root field inside the DaemonJSON field in the WindowsContainerStartRequest class. This allows exploiting a symlink vulnerability in ..\dataRoot\network\files\local-kv.db because of a TOCTOU race condition.
