CVE-2023-20008 1 Cisco 3 Roomos, Telepresence Collaboration Endpoint, Telepresence Tc 2026-06-17 N/A 4.4 MEDIUM
A vulnerability in the CLI of Cisco TelePresence CE and RoomOS Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the local system of an affected device. This vulnerability is due to improper access controls on files that are in the local file system. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by placing a symbolic link in a specific location on the local file system of an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the affected device.
CVE-2023-20004 1 Cisco 2 Roomos, Telepresence Collaboration Endpoint 2026-06-17 N/A 4.4 MEDIUM
Three vulnerabilities in the CLI of Cisco TelePresence CE and RoomOS could allow an authenticated, local attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the local file system of an affected device. These vulnerabilities are due to improper access controls on files that are on the local file system. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by placing a symbolic link in a specific location on the local file system of an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the affected device. To exploit these vulnerabilities, an attacker would need to have a remote support user account. Note: CVE-2023-20092 does not affect Cisco DX70, DX80, TelePresence MX Series, or TelePresence SX Series devices. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities.
CVE-2023-1412 1 Cloudflare 1 Warp 2026-06-17 N/A 7.0 HIGH
An unprivileged (non-admin) user can exploit an Improper Access Control vulnerability in the Cloudflare WARP Client for Windows (<= 2022.12.582.0) to perform privileged operations with SYSTEM context by working with a combination of opportunistic locks (oplock) and symbolic links (which can both be created by an unprivileged user). After installing the Cloudflare WARP Client (admin privileges required), an MSI-Installer is placed under C:\Windows\Installer. The vulnerability lies in the repair function of this MSI. ImpactAn unprivileged (non-admin) user can exploit this vulnerability to perform privileged operations with SYSTEM context, including deleting arbitrary files and reading arbitrary file content. This can lead to a variety of attacks, including the manipulation of system files and privilege escalation. PatchesA new installer with a fix that addresses this vulnerability was released in version 2023.3.381.0. While the WARP Client itself is not vulnerable (only the installer), users are encouraged to upgrade to the latest version and delete any older installers present in their systems.
CVE-2023-1314 1 Cloudflare 1 Cloudflared 2026-06-17 N/A 7.5 HIGH
A vulnerability has been discovered in cloudflared's installer (<= 2023.3.0) for Windows 32-bits devices that allows a local attacker with no administrative permissions to escalate their privileges on the affected device. This vulnerability exists because the MSI installer used by cloudflared relied on a world-writable directory. An attacker with local access to the device (without Administrator rights) can use symbolic links to trick the MSI installer into deleting files in locations that the attacker would otherwise have no access to. By creating a symlink from the world-writable directory to the target file, the attacker can manipulate the MSI installer's repair functionality to delete the target file during the repair process. Exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to delete important system files or replace them with malicious files, potentially leading to the affected device being compromised. The cloudflared client itself is not affected by this vulnerability, only the installer for 32-bit Windows devices.
CVE-2023-0652 1 Cloudflare 1 Warp 2026-06-17 N/A 7.0 HIGH
Due to a hardlink created in the ProgramData folder during the repair process of the software, the installer (MSI) of WARP Client for Windows (<= 2022.12.582.0) allowed a malicious attacker to forge the destination of the hardlink and escalate privileges, overwriting SYSTEM protected files. As Cloudflare WARP client for Windows (up to version 2022.5.309.0) allowed creation of mount points from its ProgramData folder, during installation of the WARP client, it was possible to escalate privileges and overwrite SYSTEM protected files.
CVE-2022-4563 1 Freedom 1 Securedrop 2026-06-17 N/A 7.8 HIGH
A vulnerability was found in Freedom of the Press SecureDrop. It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file gpg-agent.conf. The manipulation leads to symlink following. Local access is required to approach this attack. The name of the patch is b0526a06f8ca713cce74b63e00d3730618d89691. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-215972.
CVE-2022-4122 2 Fedoraproject, Podman Project 2 Fedora, Podman 2026-06-17 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
A vulnerability was found in buildah. Incorrect following of symlinks while reading .containerignore and .dockerignore results in information disclosure.
CVE-2022-48579 1 Rarlab 1 Unrar 2026-06-17 N/A 7.5 HIGH
UnRAR before 6.2.3 allows extraction of files outside of the destination folder via symlink chains.
CVE-2022-47188 1 Generex 2 Cs141, Cs141 Firmware 2026-06-17 N/A 7.5 HIGH
There is an arbitrary file reading vulnerability in Generex UPS CS141 below 2.06 version. An attacker, making use of the default credentials, could upload a backup file containing a symlink to /etc/shadow, allowing him to obtain the content of this path.
CVE-2022-46869 2 Acronis, Microsoft 2 Cyber Protect Home Office, Windows 2026-06-17 N/A 7.8 HIGH
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

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.
