CVSS v3.1 |
| The per-tool permission system (custom roles / role-based tool permissions, introduced in pgAdmin 4 9.3) did not enforce its permission check consistently. In SERVER mode, pgAdmin 4 gates each tool behind a per-tool Flask-Security permission, but the permission decorator (permissions_required) was applied only to a single "front door" route per tool. Every other backend route and Socket.IO handler in that tool's workflow relied solely on pga_login_required/socket_login_required, which check authentication but not the tool permission.
The reporter verified three cases against a test build: (1) a user without tools_query_tool permission received 403 on the protected sqleditor initialization route, but the same session went on to connect the server, initialize the viewdata backend chain, and retrieve real table row content; (2) a user without tools_grant_wizard received 403 on the protected acl route, but the same session still enumerated grantable objects, generated GRANT SQL, and successfully applied it -- confirmed database-side via has_table_privilege(); (3) a user without tools_schema_diff received 403 on the protected panel route, but the same session initialized schema diff, enumerated and connected databases, and obtained real DDL differences via the compare_database Socket.IO handler. The reporter also confirmed a related but distinct issue: a non-owner triggering /misc/workspace/adhoc_connect_server against an administrator-owned shared server caused pgAdmin to persist a new server row still owned by the administrator (user_id/shared unchanged from the source), even though the connection attempt itself reported failure.
During remediation, the same front-door-only permission gap was found to also affect the ERD, PSQL, and Debugger tools, and the Backup, Restore, Maintenance, and Import/Export blueprints, none of which were part of the original report; these were fixed using the same pattern as an extension of the reported defect class.
An authenticated user who had valid pgAdmin login and a stored, working database connection, but had been explicitly denied a specific tool's permission by an administrator, could therefore still drive that tool end-to-end through its other routes and sockets, including obtaining an interactive psql session over the /pty Socket.IO namespace and invoking backup/restore/maintenance/import-export jobs.
Because the bypass only restores access to tools operating over the user's own already-authenticated database connection, it does not grant the user any database privilege they did not already hold; it circumvents pgAdmin's own tool-level access-control policy (an organisational segregation-of-duties control, separate from database-level authorization), letting a user reach a pgAdmin feature an administrator intended to withhold from them, using capabilities their existing database role already permits through other means.
Socket.IO event handlers had no permission-aware equivalent of permissions_required; only socket_login_required existed, checking authentication but not the tool permission.
Fix adds a socket_permissions_required decorator (mirroring permissions_required, honouring the Administrator bypass, reading permissions via has_permission()) and applies it, alongside permissions_required, as the outermost decorator on every backend route and Socket.IO handler for the affected tools. Regression tests assert 403 on every gated route and socket handler for a permission-less user.
This issue affects pgAdmin 4 in SERVER mode: from 9.3 before 9.17. |
| NetKids iMark, provided by Integrated Systems Technologies, Inc., contains an Unquoted Search Path or Element vulnerability (CWE-428). An authenticated attacker may exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges. |
| FirmaCheck for Windows before 1.3.16 contains a DLL hijacking vulnerability that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code by placing a crafted openssl.cnf file in the unvalidated C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\SSL\ directory path. Attackers can write a malicious OpenSSL configuration file referencing an attacker-controlled DLL to achieve code execution at startup process privilege level when FirmaCheck.exe runs automatically at system startup. |
| NetKids iMark, provided by Integrated Systems Technologies, Inc., contains an Uncontrolled Search Path Element vulnerability (CWE-427). An authenticated attacker may exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges. |
| Sharp and Toshiba Tec MFPs (multifunction printers) fail to properly authorize requests to directly access certain image data stored to the affected product. |
| Ouroboros is a local-first runtime for AI coding agents that records their actions and applies user-defined policies to constrain behavior. In versions prior to 0.39.0, if a user clones a malicious repository and runs Ouroboros commands within that directory, it can lead to arbitrary code execution and potential system takeover. The vulnerability stems from Ouroboros loading the .env file from the current working directory. Execution-affecting environment variables such as OUROBOROS_CLI_PATH, OPENCODE_CLI_PATH, and other backend selectors are accepted directly from this local .env. An attacker can include a malicious script in the repository and point the CLI path variable to it (e.g., OUROBOROS_CLI_PATH=./malicious_script.sh). When the user executes a command like ouroboros init or any command that instantiates the adapter, the malicious script is executed instead of the intended CLI. This issue has been fixed in version 0.39.0. |
| A DLL hijacking vulnerability in GeoVision GV-ASManager allows a local attacker with write access to an unsafe search directory to execute arbitrary code. By placing a crafted dynamic-link library (DLL) file into the application search path prior to the legitimate library, the malicious code is loaded and executed under the security privileges of the GV-ASManager process. |
| The user-controllable executable files will be directly executed by high-privilege processes, allowing low-privilege users to have the opportunity to elevate their privileges to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. |
| A security flaw has been discovered in CheckMAL AppCheck Pro 3.1.43.10. Affected is an unknown function in the library AppCheckD.sys of the component Kernel Mini-Filter Driver. Performing a manipulation results in uncontrolled search path. The attack requires a local approach. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitability is told to be difficult. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. |
| A vulnerability in the iDTM FDI allows an attacker with elevated privileges and access to the host system to enable the debug interface by placing a crafted file in the application directory, potentially resulting in unauthorized access to connected devices and exposure, modification, or disruption of device data or operation. |
| CAI Content Credentials is affected by an Untrusted Search Path vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploit depends on conditions beyond the attacker's control. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must visit a maliciously crafted URL or interact with a compromised web page. Scope is changed. |
| Creative Cloud Desktop is affected by an Uncontrolled Search Path Element vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploit depends on conditions beyond the attacker's control. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction. Scope is changed. |
| HCL Traveler for Microsoft Outlook (HTMO) is susceptible to a DLL hijacking vulnerability which could allow an attacker to modify or replace the application with malicious content. |
| Inappropriate implementation in Isolated Web Apps in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.72 allowed a remote attacker to bypass navigation restrictions via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Medium) |
| Notepad3 through 6.25.822.1 contains a DLL search-order hijacking vulnerability in the About-dialog code path in src/Notepad3.c. The application calls LoadLibrary(L"MSFTEDIT.DLL") with a bare DLL name, which allows a local attacker to place a malicious MSFTEDIT.DLL in the application directory or another preferred DLL search location and achieve arbitrary code execution in the context of the user when the About dialog is opened. |
| Uncontrolled search path element issue exists in Pupsman versions prior to 3.9.0. If a crafted DLL file is placed in the same folder as the affected installer and the installer is executed, arbitrary code may be executed with SYSTEM privilege. |
