CVE-2023-30799 1 Mikrotik 1 Routeros 2025-11-21 9.1 Critical
MikroTik RouterOS stable before 6.49.7 and long-term through 6.48.6 are vulnerable to a privilege escalation issue. A remote and authenticated attacker can escalate privileges from admin to super-admin on the Winbox or HTTP interface. The attacker can abuse this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVE-2013-10052 2 Zpanel, Zpanel Project 2 Zpanel, Zpanel 2025-11-20 N/A
ZPanel includes a helper binary named zsudo, intended to allow restricted privilege escalation for administrative tasks. However, when misconfigured in /etc/sudoers, zsudo can be invoked by low-privileged users to execute arbitrary commands as root. This flaw enables local attackers with shell access to escalate privileges by writing a payload to a writable directory and executing it via zsudo. The vulnerability is particularly impactful in post-exploitation scenarios following web server compromise, where the attacker inherits access to zsudo.

CVE-2025-24353 2 Directus, Monospace 2 Directus, Directus 2025-11-18 5 Medium
Directus is a real-time API and App dashboard for managing SQL database content. Prior to version 11.2.0, when sharing an item, a typical user can specify an arbitrary role. It allows the user to use a higher-privileged role to see fields that otherwise the user should not be able to see. Instances that are impacted are those that use the share feature and have specific roles hierarchy and fields that are not visible for certain roles. Version 11.2.0 contains a patch the issue.
CVE-2025-34204 2 Printerlogic, Vasion 4 Vasion Print, Virtual Appliance, Virtual Appliance Application and 1 more 2025-11-17 9.8 Critical
Vasion Print (formerly PrinterLogic) Virtual Appliance Host and Application (VA and SaaS deployments) contains multiple Docker containers that run primary application processes (for example PHP workers, Node.js servers and custom binaries) as the root user. This increases the blast radius of a container compromise and enables lateral movement and host compromise when a container is breached.
CVE-2024-14009 1 Nagios 2 Nagios Xi, Xi 2025-11-17 7.2 High
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.0.1 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in the System Profile component. The System Profile feature is an administrative diagnostic/configuration capability. Due to improper access controls and unsafe handling of exported/imported profile data and operations, an authenticated administrator could exploit this vulnerability to execute actions on the underlying XI host outside the application's security scope. Successful exploitation may allow an administrator to obtain root privileges on the XI server.
CVE-2024-14004 1 Nagios 2 Nagios Xi, Xi 2025-11-17 8.8 High
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.2 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability related to NagVis configuration handling (nagvis.conf). An authenticated user could manipulate NagVis configuration data or leverage insufficiently validated configuration settings to obtain elevated privileges on the Nagios XI system.
CVE-2024-13997 1 Nagios 2 Nagios Xi, Xi 2025-11-17 7.2 High
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in which an authenticated administrator could leverage the Migrate Server feature to obtain root privileges on the underlying XI host. By abusing the migration workflow, an admin-level attacker could execute actions outside the intended security scope of the application, resulting in full control of the operating system.
CVE-2025-11923 2 Lifterlms, Wordpress 2 Lifterlms, Wordpress 2025-11-14 8.8 High
The LifterLMS – WP LMS for eLearning, Online Courses, & Quizzes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to allowing them to modify their own role via the REST API. The permission check in the update_item_permissions_check() function returns true when a user updates their own account without verifying the role changes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with student-level access and above, to escalate their privileges to administrator by updating their own roles array via a crafted REST API request. Another endpoint intended for instructors also provides an attack vector. Affected version ranges are 3.5.3-3.41.2, 4.0.0-4.21.3, 5.0.0-5.10.0, 6.0.0-6.11.0, 7.0.0-7.8.7, 8.0.0-8.0.7, 9.0.0-9.0.7, 9.1.0.
CVE-2025-11457 2 Easycommerce, Wordpress 2 Ai-powered Wordpress Ecommerce Plugin, Wordpress 2025-11-14 9.8 Critical
The EasyCommerce – AI-Powered, Fast & Beautiful WordPress Ecommerce Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in versions 0.9.0-beta2 to 1.5.0. This is due to the /easycommerce/v1/orders REST API endpoint not properly restricting the ability for users to select roles during registration. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to gain administrator-level access to a vulnerable site.

CVE-2025-64507 1 Linuxcontainers 1 Incus 2025-11-12 8.4 High
Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. An issue in versions prior to 6.0.6 and 6.19.0 affects any Incus user in an environment where an unprivileged user may have root access to a container with an attached custom storage volume that has the `security.shifted` property set to `true` as well as access to the host as an unprivileged user. The most common case for this would be systems using `incus-user` with the less privileged `incus` group to provide unprivileged users with an isolated restricted access to Incus. Such users may be able to create a custom storage volume with the necessary property (depending on kernel and filesystem support) and can then write a setuid binary from within the container which can be executed as an unprivileged user on the host to gain root privileges. A patch for this issue is expected in versions 6.0.6 and 6.19.0. As a workaround, permissions can be manually restricted until a patched version of Incus is deployed.
CVE-2024-2228 1 Sailpoint 1 Identityiq 2025-11-12 7.1 High
This vulnerability allows an authenticated user to perform a Lifecycle Manager flow or other QuickLink for a target user outside of the defined QuickLink Population.
CVE-2025-11168 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-11-12 8.8 High
The Mementor Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.5. This is due to plugin not properly handling the user switch back function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to elevate their privileges by accessing an administrator account through the switch back functionality.
CVE-2025-12405 1 Google 2 Cloud Looker, Looker 2025-11-12 N/A
An improper privilege management vulnerability was found in Looker Studio. It impacted all JDBC-based connectors.

This vulnerability was patched on 21 July 2025, and no customer action is needed.
CVE-2024-45496 1 Redhat 1 Openshift 2025-11-11 9.9 Critical
A flaw was found in OpenShift. This issue occurs due to the misuse of elevated privileges in the OpenShift Container Platform's build process. During the build initialization step, the git-clone container is run with a privileged security context, allowing unrestricted access to the node. An attacker with developer-level access can provide a crafted .gitconfig file containing commands executed during the cloning process, leading to arbitrary command execution on the worker node. An attacker running code in a privileged container could escalate their permissions on the node running the container.
