CVE-2026-35350	Med	0.43	6.6	0.00	Apr 22, 2026	The cp utility in uutils coreutils fails to properly handle setuid and setgid bits when ownership preservation fails. When copying with the -p (preserve) flag, the utility applies the source mode bits even if the chown operation is unsuccessful. This can result in a user-owned copy retaining original privileged bits, creating unexpected privileged executables that violate local security policies. This differs from GNU cp, which clears these bits when ownership cannot be preserved.
CVE-2024-29080	Med	0.42	6.5	0.00	Jul 19, 2024	Potential vulnerabilities have been identified in the HP Display Control software component within the HP Application Enabling Software Driver which might allow escalation of privilege.
CVE-2025-8325	Med	0.41	6.3	0.00	May 11, 2026	The software fails to enforce role-based access controls for certain Gateway API invocations. Users with the 'Internal/Everyone' role can invoke these APIs, bypassing intended permission checks. This same vulnerability also affects Internal Service APIs, potentially exposing them in WSO2 APIM 3.x versions. A malicious actor with a valid user account on a vulnerable deployment can perform sensitive operations against the Gateway REST API regardless of their actual roles or privileges. This could lead to unintended behavior or misuse, particularly in production environments.
CVE-2024-52869	Med	0.39	6.0	0.00	Jan 8, 2025	Certain Teradata account-handling code through 2024-11-04, used with SUSE Enterprise Linux Server, mismanages groups. Specifically, when there is an operating system move from SUSE Enterprise Linux Server (SLES) 12 Service Pack (SP) 2 or 3 to SLES 15 SP2 on Teradata Database systems, some service/system user accounts, and possibly systems administrator created user accounts, are incorrectly assigned to groups that allow higher system-level privileges than intended for those user accounts. Depending on the usage of these accounts, this may lead to full system compromise.
CVE-2024-54513	Med	0.36	5.5	0.00	Dec 12, 2024	A permissions issue was addressed with additional restrictions. This issue is fixed in iOS 18.2 and iPadOS 18.2, macOS Sequoia 15.2, tvOS 18.2, visionOS 2.2, watchOS 11.2. An app may be able to access sensitive user data.
CVE-2024-40824	Med	0.36	5.5	0.00	Jul 29, 2024	This issue was addressed through improved state management. This issue is fixed in iOS 17.6 and iPadOS 17.6, macOS Sonoma 14.6, tvOS 17.6, watchOS 10.6. An app may be able to bypass Privacy preferences.
CVE-2024-40811	Med	0.36	5.5	0.00	Jul 29, 2024	The issue was addressed with improved checks. This issue is fixed in macOS Sonoma 14.6. An app may be able to modify protected parts of the file system.
CVE-2024-40800	Med	0.36	5.5	0.00	Jul 29, 2024	An input validation issue was addressed with improved input validation. This issue is fixed in macOS Monterey 12.7.6, macOS Sonoma 14.6, macOS Ventura 13.6.8. An app may be able to modify protected parts of the file system.
