CVE-2025-34191 4 Apple, Linux, Printerlogic and 1 more 6 Macos, Linux Kernel, Vasion Print and 3 more 2026-02-26 8.4 High
Vasion Print (formerly PrinterLogic) Virtual Appliance Host versions prior to 22.0.843 and Application prior to 20.0.1923 (macOS/Linux client deployments) contain an arbitrary file write vulnerability via the response file handling. When tasks produce output the service writes response data into files under /opt/PrinterInstallerClient/tmp/responses/ reusing the requested filename. The service follows symbolic links in the responses directory and writes as the service user (typically root), allowing a local, unprivileged user to cause the service to overwrite or create arbitrary files on the filesystem as root. This can be used to modify configuration files, replace or inject binaries or drivers, and otherwise achieve local privilege escalation and full system compromise. This vulnerability has been identified by the vendor as: V-2023-019 — Arbitrary File Write as Root.
CVE-2025-11462 2 Amazon, Apple 2 Aws Client Vpn, Macos 2026-02-26 7.8 High
Improper Link Resolution Before File Access in the AWS VPN Client for macOS versions 1.3.2- 5.2.0 allows a local user to execute code with elevated privileges. Insufficient validation checks on the log destination directory during log rotation could allow a non-administrator user to create a symlink from a client log file to a privileged location. On log rotation, this could lead to code execution with root privileges if the user made crafted API calls which injected arbitrary code into the log file. We recommend users upgrade to AWS VPN Client for macOS 5.2.1 or the latest version.

CVE-2025-9869 1 Razer 2 Synapse, Synapse 3 2026-02-26 N/A
Razer Synapse 3 Macro Module Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Razer Synapse 3. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Razer Synapse Service. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the service to delete arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-26374.
CVE-2025-9870 1 Razer 2 Synapse, Synapse 3 2026-02-26 N/A
Razer Synapse 3 RazerPhilipsHueUninstall Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Razer Synapse 3. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Philips HUE module installer. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the installer to delete arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-26375.
CVE-2025-63945 1 Tencent 1 Ioa 2026-02-26 7.4 High
A privilege escalation (PE) vulnerability in the Tencent iOA app thru 210.9.28693.621001 on Windows devices enables a local user to execute programs with elevated privileges. However, execution requires that the local user is able to successfully exploit a race condition.
CVE-2025-63946 1 Tencent 2 Pc Manager, Pcmanager 2026-02-26 7.4 High
A privilege escalation (PE) vulnerability in the Tencent PC Manager app thru 17.10.28554.205 on Windows devices enables a local user to execute programs with elevated privileges. However, execution requires that the local user is able to successfully exploit a race condition.
CVE-2025-7073 1 Bitdefender 5 Antivirus, Antivirus Plus, Endpoint Security Tools and 2 more 2026-02-26 7.8 High
A local privilege escalation vulnerability in Bitdefender Total Security 27.0.46.231 allows low-privileged attackers to elevate privileges. The issue arises from bdservicehost.exe deleting files from a user-writable directory (C:\ProgramData\Atc\Feedback) without proper symbolic link validation, enabling arbitrary file deletion. This issue is chained with a file copy operation during network events and a filter driver bypass via DLL injection to achieve arbitrary file copy and code execution as elevated user.
