CVE Database

SiYuan Windows installer before version 3.8.1 (affected versions >= 2.0.14) contains an uncontrolled search path element vulnerability in its NSIS installer, which invokes system executables such as TASKKILL by name rather than by absolute path. Because NSIS nsExec::Exec resolves these calls using a search path that includes the installer's own launch directory ahead of System32, an attacker who plants a malicious executable (e.g., a renamed TASKKILL.exe) in that directory can have it executed when the installer runs. These calls occur in electron-builder's preInit hook before the license page is displayed, and with an all-users (elevated) install the planted binary executes with an elevated token, resulting in local privilege escalation.

Uncontrolled search path element in Windows Remote Help Defense allows an authorized attacker to perform spoofing locally.

When Zabbix Agent was installed on Windows into a custom installation directory, the installer did not verify whether the selected directory had secure access permissions. If the target directory allowed unauthorized users to modify its contents, an attacker could place a malicious DLL that could later be loaded by the application, resulting in DLL sideloading. The installer has been hardened to detect potentially unsafe installation directories and now requires explicit user confirmation before proceeding with installation in such locations. This reduces the risk of accidental installation into directories with inappropriate permissions while preserving compatibility with existing deployment scenarios.

An issue in CGM Germany - CompuGroup Medical CGM ISIS MED 2510.1.0.20 allows a remote attacker to execute arbtirary code via a crafted .dll file.

Dell ObjectScale, versions prior to 4.3.0.1, contain(s) an Uncontrolled Search Path Element vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Elevation of privileges.

A privilege escalation (PE) vulnerability in the Palo Alto Networks Prisma® Access Agent app on Windows and macOS devices enables a local user to execute code with elevated privileges. The Prisma Access Agent on Linux, iOS, Android, and ChromeOS is not affected.

A DLL hijacking vulnerability within the AMD Ryzen Master installation could allow a local user-privileged attacker to escalate privileges, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.

A DLL hijacking vulnerability in AMD Power Design Manager could allow a malicious local attacker to escalate privileges during the uninstallation process, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.

A vulnerability has been identified in LineInst.exe (LINE for Windows) prior to version 26.4.0, where Msftedit.dll is loaded via a relative path without a secure DLL search path, allowing a malicious DLL placed in the installer's directory to be loaded ahead of the legitimate System32 copy.

DLL Search Order Hijacking in LUCID Vision Labs Arena SDK 1.0.80.49 on Windows allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the application by placing a malicious DLL in a user-controlled directory listed in the PATH environment variable, which the SDK traverses when a required dependency is not found locally.

An uncontrolled search path element in Kiro CLI before version 2.10.0 on Windows might allow a remote unauthenticated actor to execute arbitrary code via a maliciously crafted project directory containing an executable that bypasses workspace trust protections when a local user starts Kiro CLI in the directory. To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 2.10.0 or higher.

An uncontrolled search path element in Kiro IDE before version 1.0.228 on Windows might allow a remote unauthenticated actor to execute arbitrary code via a maliciously crafted project directory containing an executable that bypasses workspace trust protections when a local user opens the directory. To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 1.0.228 or higher.

Ghidra contains an arbitrary code execution vulnerability in the Swift demangler analyzer that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary binaries by supplying a malicious Ghidra project with a crafted Swift tool directory path. When a victim opens the attacker-supplied project, SwiftDemanglerAnalyzer restores the persisted Swift binary directory from project state and SwiftNativeDemangler executes the resolved binary without integrity or signature verification, causing attacker-controlled executables to run under the Ghidra process user with no prompt or confirmation.

Adobe Photoshop Installer was affected by an Uncontrolled Search Path Element vulnerability that could have resulted in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. An attacker could have exploited this vulnerability by placing a malicious library in a directory searched by the installer. Exploitation of this issue required user interaction in that a victim must have been running the installer. Scope is changed.

Uncontrolled Search Path Element vulnerability in ArkSigner Software and Hardware Industry and Trade Inc. ArkSigner Desktop Client allows Search Order Hijacking. This issue affects ArkSigner Desktop Client: from v2.2.16.10 through 17062026.
