Security Vulnerabilities Published In 2021 (File inclusion)

An exposed dangerous function vulnerability exists in Ivanti Avalanche before 6.3.3 allows an attacker with access to the Inforail Service to perform an arbitrary file write.

SAS/Intrnet 9.4 build 1520 and earlier allows Local File Inclusion. The samples library (included by default) in the appstart.sas file, allows end-users of the application to access the sample.webcsf1.sas program, which contains user-controlled macro variables that are passed to the DS2CSF macro. Users can escape the context of the configured user-controllable variable and append additional functions native to the macro but not included as variables within the library. This includes a function that retrieves files from the host OS.

seatd-launch in seatd 0.6.x before 0.6.2 allows privilege escalation because it uses execlp and may be installed setuid root.

Metabase is an open source data analytics platform. In affected versions a security issue has been discovered with the custom GeoJSON map (`admin->settings->maps->custom maps->add a map`) support and potential local file inclusion (including environment variables). URLs were not validated prior to being loaded. This issue is fixed in a new maintenance release (0.40.5 and 1.40.5), and any subsequent release after that. If you’re unable to upgrade immediately, you can mitigate this by including rules in your reverse proxy or load balancer or WAF to provide a validation filter before the application.

nextcloud news-android is an Android client for the Nextcloud news/feed reader app. In affected versions the Nextcloud News for Android app has a security issue by which a malicious application installed on the same device can send it an arbitrary Intent that gets reflected back, unintentionally giving read and write access to non-exported Content Providers in Nextcloud News for Android. Users should upgrade to version 0.9.9.63 or higher as soon as possible.

OS4Ed OpenSIS Community 8.0 is vulnerable to a local file inclusion vulnerability in Modules.php (modname parameter), which can disclose arbitrary file from the server's filesystem as long as the application has access to the file.

An issue was discovered in SquaredUp for SCOM 5.2.1.6654. The Download Log feature in System / Maintenance was susceptible to a local file inclusion vulnerability (when processing remote input in the log files downloaded by an authenticated administrator user), leading to the ability to read arbitrary files on the server filesystems.

A local file inclusion (LFI) vulnerability exists in version BIQS IT Biqs-drive v1.83 and below when sending a specific payload as the file parameter to download/index.php. This allows the attacker to read arbitrary files from the server with the permissions of the configured web-user.

There are multiple API function codes that permit reading and writing data to or from files and directories, which could lead to the manipulation and/or the deletion of files.

The wp-publications WordPress plugin is vulnerable to restrictive local file inclusion via the Q_FILE parameter found in the ~/bibtexbrowser.php file which allows attackers to include local zip files and achieve remote code execution, in versions up to and including 0.0.

The Nextcloud Desktop Client is a tool to synchronize files from Nextcloud Server with a computer. The Nextcloud Desktop Client invokes its uninstaller script when being installed to make sure there are no remnants of previous installations. In versions 3.0.3 through 3.2.4, the Client searches the `Uninstall.exe` file in a folder that can be written by regular users. This could lead to a case where a malicious user creates a malicious `Uninstall.exe`, which would be executed with administrative privileges on the Nextcloud Desktop Client installation. This issue is fixed in Nextcloud Desktop Client version 3.3.0. As a workaround, do not allow untrusted users to create content in the `C:\` system folder and verify that there is no malicious `C:\Uninstall.exe` file on the system.

Nagios XI before version 5.8.5 is vulnerable to local file inclusion through improper limitation of a pathname in index.php.

SupportAssist Client version 3.8 and 3.9 contains an Untrusted search path vulnerability that allows attackers to load an arbitrary .dll file via .dll planting/hijacking, only by a separate administrative action that is not a default part of the SOSInstallerTool.exe installation for executing arbitrary dll's,

An issue was discovered in Echo ShareCare 8.15.5. The TextReader feature in General/TextReader/TextReader.cfm is susceptible to a local file inclusion vulnerability when processing remote input in the textFile parameter from an authenticated user, leading to the ability to read arbitrary files on the server filesystems as well any files accessible via Universal Naming Convention (UNC) paths.

A vulnerability in Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to overwrite or append arbitrary data to system files using root-level privileges. The attacker must have administrative credentials on the device. This vulnerability is due to incomplete validation of user input for a specific CLI command. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by authenticating to the device with administrative privileges and issuing a CLI command with crafted user parameters. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to overwrite or append arbitrary data to system files using root-level privileges.

iDrive RemotePC before 7.6.48 on Windows allows privilege escalation. A local and low-privileged user can force RemotePC to execute an attacker-controlled executable with SYSTEM privileges.

NVIDIA DCGM, all versions prior to 2.2.9, contains a vulnerability in the DIAG module where any user can inject shared libraries into the DCGM server, which is usually running as root, which may lead to privilege escalation, total loss of confidentiality and integrity, and complete denial of service.

A vulnerability exists in SMM (System Management Mode) branch that registers a SWSMI handler that does not sufficiently check or validate the allocated buffer pointer(QWORD values for CommBuffer). This can be used by an attacker to corrupt data in SMRAM memory and even lead to arbitrary code execution.

Local File Inclusion vulnerability in Ab Initio Control>Center before 4.0.2.6 allows remote attackers to retrieve arbitrary files. Fixed in v4.0.2.6 and v4.0.3.1.

Uncontrolled search path in the Intel(R) RealSense(TM) D400 Series UWP driver for Windows 10 before version 6.1.160.22 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

Nextcloud server is an open source, self hosted personal cloud. Nextcloud supports rendering image previews for user provided file content. For some image types, the Nextcloud server was invoking a third-party library that wasn't suited for untrusted user-supplied content. There are several security concerns with passing user-generated content to this library, such as Server-Side-Request-Forgery, file disclosure or potentially executing code on the system. The risk depends on your system configuration and the installed library version. It is recommended that the Nextcloud Server is upgraded to 20.0.12, 21.0.4 or 22.1.0. These versions do not use this library anymore. As a workaround users may disable previews by setting `enable_previews` to `false` in `config.php`.

A remote file inclusion vulnerability exists in Artica Pandora FMS 742, exploitable by the lowest privileged user.

A DLL sideloading vulnerability in McAfee Agent for Windows prior to 5.7.4 could allow a local user to perform a DLL sideloading attack with an unsigned DLL with a specific name and in a specific location. This would result in the user gaining elevated permissions and the ability to execute arbitrary code as the system user, through not checking the DLL signature.

show_default.php in the LocalFilesEditor extension before 11.4.0.1 for Piwigo allows Local File Inclusion because the file parameter is not validated with a proper regular-expression check.

Inappropriate implementation in Offline in Google Chrome on Android prior to 90.0.4430.212 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to bypass site isolation via a crafted HTML page.
