Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerabilities in Cisco VPN Client
Advisory ID: cisco-sa-20070815-vpnclient

---[ Vulnerability description ]
Positive Research Center has discovered multiple XSS vulnerabilties in Kayako Support Suite.
Application insufficiently verifies subscriberdata incoming parameter in /staff/index.php?_m=news&_a=importexport script.
An attacker with "staff" privileges can use the vulnerabilty to inject and execute arbitrary HTML code and scripts in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server.
To use the vulnerability an attacker should convince a user with "staff" privileges to open URL like:
http://example.com/support/staff/index.php?_m=news&_a=managesubscribers&importsub=1&resultdata=YTo0OntzOjEzOiJzdWNjZXNzZW1haWxzIjtpOjA7czoxMjoiZmFpbGVkZW1haWxzIjtpOjE7czoxMToidG90YWxlbWFpbHMiO2k6MTtzOjk6ImVtYWlsbGlzdCI7czo5MDoiPHNjcmlwdD5hbGVydCgneHNzJyk8L3NjcmlwdD5APHNjcmlwdD5hbGVydCgneHNzJyk8L3NjcmlwdD4uPHNjcmlwdD5hbGVydCgneHNzJyk8L3NjcmlwdD4gIjt9

Revision 1.0
Essentially the paper details a way in which the attacker can manipulate the
environment to trick an Oracle database into using arbitrary SQL in DATE
functions and data.
A number of people at the time dismissed it as irrelevant because the
attacker required the ALTER SESSIOn privilege. Well, as it turns out, you
don't need the ALTER SESSION privilege at all. Here's why: there are certain
ALTER SESSION statements that can be executed even though the user doesn't
have the ALTER SESSION privilege. The statements that can be executed
without the privilege include those that relate to National Language
Support. Thus a user without ALTER SESSION privileges can change the date
The Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) product family is affected by
these vulnerabilities:
* Two denial of service (DoS) vulnerabilities
* Three privilege escalation vulnerabilities
* Two access control list (ACL) bypass vulnerabilities
Note: These vulnerabilities are independent of one another. A device
may be affected by one vulnerability and not affected by another.
Al Viro discovered a race condition in the TTY driver. A local attacker
could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2009-4895)
Gleb Napatov discovered that KVM did not correctly check certain privileged
operations. A local attacker with access to a guest kernel could exploit
this to crash the host system, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2010-0435)
Dan Rosenberg discovered that the MOVE_EXT ext4 ioctl did not correctly
read or write disk blocks that had changed file assignment or had become
unlinked, leading to a loss of privacy. (CVE-2010-2943)
Tavis Ormandy discovered that the IRDA subsystem did not correctly shut
down. A local attacker could exploit this to cause the system to crash
or possibly gain root privileges. (Ubuntu 10.10 was not affected.)
(CVE-2010-2954)
Brad Spengler discovered that the wireless extensions did not correctly
validate certain request sizes. A local attacker could exploit this
to read portions of kernel memory, leading to a loss of privacy. (Only

---------------------------
Impact: An unauthenticated remote attacker without any kind of
credentials can access the SMB service under the credentials of an
authorized user. Depending on the privileges of the authorized user, and
the configuration of the remote system, an attacker can gain read/write
access to the remote file system and execute arbitrary code by using
DCE/RPC over SMB.

Summary
=======
Cisco Unified IP Phones 7900 Series devices, also known as TNP
phones, are affected by three vulnerabilities that could allow an
attacker to elevate privileges, change phone configurations, disclose
sensitive information, or load unsigned software. These three
vulnerabilities are classified as two privilege escalation
vulnerabilities and one signature bypass vulnerability.
Cisco has released free software updates that address these
The Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client, previously known as the
Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client, is affected by the following
vulnerabilities:
* Arbitrary Program Execution Vulnerability
* Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
Cisco has released free software updates that address these
vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds for the vulnerabilities
described in this advisory.

Privilege escalation in bytehoard 2.1
Background
Bytehoard is a web application written in PHP that serves as a file
storage and sharing system.
In whose universe? Did you even read the post? Local admins become LOCAL ADMINS by using a cached domain account who is a LOCAL ADMIN. You have to do it with the network cable unplugged. There is no privilege escalation here.
StenoPlasma's intent was to educate people on how things worked, and while there isn't a security issue here, he was completely correct in that you guys really need to learn what you are talking about.

No, you are perpetuating inaccurate vulnerability claims.
1. StenoPlasma claims that a local admin can access and reuse the cached
credentials of other users.
2. Stefan, Thor, et al yawn.
3. Joyce, Andrea, and perhaps others seem to be conflating local access
(what StenoPlasma was talking about) with gaining domain admin privileges on
domain controllers and other resources on separate machines (which nobody
appears to have shown is possible using locally cached credentials).
If I've missed something obvious please educate me.
