GeoServer is an open-source software server written in Java that provides the ability to view, edit, and share geospatial data. It is designed to be a flexible, efficient solution for distributing geospatial data from a variety of sources such as Geographic Information System (GIS) databases, web-based data, and personal datasets. In the GeoServer versions before 2.23.6, greater than or equal to 2.24.0, before 2.24.4 and greater than equal to 2.25.0, and before 2.25.1, multiple OGC request parameters allow remote code execution (RCE) by unauthenticated users through specially crafted input against a default GeoServer installation due to unsafely evaluating property names as XPath expressions. An attacker can abuse this by sending a POST request with a malicious xpath expression to execute arbitrary commands as root on the system.
60f349aa901f9dae2286ae790ca0dc4f7e03fb5120fbbaa6cd6f79d5a14fe921Ubuntu Security Notice 6894-1 - Muqing Liu and neoni discovered that Apport incorrectly handled detecting if an executable was replaced after a crash. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code as the root user. Gerrit Venema discovered that Apport incorrectly handled connections to Apport sockets inside containers. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to connect to arbitrary sockets as the root user.

3f3c084d0ad4079039953a21ef8407b11f9ea275d71e3bc8ee437a83a18de88fDebian Linux Security Advisory 5724-1 - The Qualys Threat Research Unit (TRU) discovered that OpenSSH, an implementation of the SSH protocol suite, is prone to a signal handler race condition. If a client does not authenticate within LoginGraceTime seconds (120 by default), then sshd's SIGALRM handler is called asynchronously and calls various functions that are not async-signal-safe. A remote unauthenticated attacker can take advantage of this flaw to execute arbitrary code with root privileges. This flaw affects sshd in its default configuration.
5e87f7e6953882200bcca86b932c1100ae34b3674c68208e709aa0522427b2f9This Metasploit module abuses a feature of the sudo command on Progress Flowmon. Certain binary files are allowed to automatically elevate with the sudo command. This is based off of the file name. This includes executing a PHP command with a specific file name. If the file is overwritten with PHP code it can be used to elevate privileges to root. Progress Flowmon up to at least version 12.3.5 is vulnerable.
4d7c5d9c8f90f2082d79d0b216623a4757503aa44c96d6dd6a02243cececec08Openmediavault versions prior to 7.0.32 have a vulnerability that occurs when users in the web-admin group enter commands on the crontab by selecting the root shell. As a result of exploiting the vulnerability, authenticated web-admin users can run commands with root privileges and receive reverse shell connections.

4d1b35515c6ffab8d4f949193b102ed87d31b8db5b0343e6731e457ac07224aaThe Ray Project dashboard contains a CPU profiling page, and the format parameter is not validated before being inserted into a system command executed in a shell, allowing for arbitrary command execution. If the system is configured to allow passwordless sudo (a setup some Ray configurations require) this will result in a root shell being returned to the user. If not configured, a user level shell will be returned. Versions 2.6.3 and below are affected.

In particular, the tailon service is running as the root user, is bound to the loopback interface, and is listening on TCP port 7050. Using the tailon service, the contents of any file on the Artica Proxy can be viewed.
0693c2ce363baaef7b371443418fb29623edc052f8d82f02eea207672f271e4bThe Rich Filemanager feature of Artica Proxy versions 4.40 and 4.50 provides a web-based interface for file management capabilities. When the feature is enabled, it does not require authentication by default, and runs as the root user. This provides an unauthenticated attacker complete access to the file system.
4e458aef9f797d0714e86e3cbbbe7fdd8225fa1b68b23cd60a66a992d28a4eb5LaborOfficeFree installs a MySQL instance that runs as SYSTEM and calculates the MySQL root password based on two constants. Each time the program needs to connect to MySQL as root, it employs the reverse algorithm to calculate the root password. This issue has been tested on version 19.10 exclusively, but allegedly, versions prior to 19.10 are also vulnerable.

Due to a file descriptor leak it is possible to mount the host file system with the permissions of runc (typically root). Successfully tested on Ubuntu 22.04 with runc 1.1.7-0ubuntu1~22.04.1 using Docker build.

An attacker can exploit a command injection vulnerability by manipulating the Email settings' WAN IP info service, which utilizes the wget module. This allows the attacker to gain unauthorized access to the system with administrative privileges by exploiting the url parameter in the HTTP GET request to ekafcgi.fcgi.

daf313bfa471e6c911b744215f7deaf8540dd85955b1584a4642d7487964ba48A buffer overflow exists in the GNU C Library's dynamic loader ld.so while processing the GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variable. It has been dubbed Looney Tunables. This issue allows an local attacker to use maliciously crafted GLIBC_TUNABLES when launching binaries with SUID permission to execute code in the context of the root user. This Metasploit module targets glibc packaged on Ubuntu and Debian. Fedora 37 and 38 and other distributions of linux also come packaged with versions of glibc vulnerable to CVE-2023-4911 however this module does not target them.
e48ab23fe12076a6f076606de74abf4141a72444bfb88e5c9ea8bf73a3f2b891This Metasploit exploit module takes advantage of a Docker image which has either the privileged flag, or SYS_ADMIN Linux capability. If the host kernel is vulnerable, its possible to escape the Docker image and achieve root on the host operating system. A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's cgroup_release_agent_write in the kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c function. This flaw, under certain circumstances, allows the use of the cgroups v1 release_agent feature to escalate privileges and bypass the namespace isolation unexpectedly.

be4a53963822186eefd3bca295bd3248275803476bbc0166365af13898f5fd55This Metasploit module exploits a directory traversal in F5's BIG-IP Traffic Management User Interface (TMUI) to upload a shell script and execute it as the Unix root user. Unix shell access is obtained by escaping the restricted Traffic Management Shell (TMSH). The escape may not be reliable, and you may have to run the exploit multiple times. Versions 11.6.1-11.6.5, 12.1.0-12.1.5, 13.1.0-13.1.3, 14.1.0-14.1.2, 15.0.0, and 15.1.0 are known to be vulnerable. Fixes were introduced in 11.6.5.2, 12.1.5.2, 13.1.3.4, 14.1.2.6, and 15.1.0.4. Tested against the VMware OVA release of 14.1.2.
