An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Windows when the Win32k component fails to properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in kernel mode. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
In the Linux kernel before 5.1.17, ptrace_link in kernel/ptrace.c mishandles the recording of the credentials of a process that wants to create a ptrace relationship, which allows local users to obtain root access by leveraging certain scenarios with a parent-child process relationship, where a parent drops privileges and calls execve (potentially allowing control by an attacker).
This module exploits two vulnerabilities (CVE-2019-1405 & CVE-2019-1322) in order to get SYSTEM privileges. The first one "UPnP Device Host" allows us to get SERVICE privileges. The second one "Update Orchestrator Service" allows us to escalate from SERVICE to SYSTEM.
The MsIo64.sys and MsIo32.sys drivers in Patriot Viper RGB allow local users (including low integrity processes) to read and write to arbitrary memory locations, and consequently gain NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges, by mapping \Device\PhysicalMemory into the calling process via ZwOpenSection and ZwMapViewOfSection.
This module has improvements for the Linux Kernel libfutex exploit.
This module exploits a flaw in the way sudo implemented running commands with arbitrary user ID. If a sudoers entry is written to allow the attacker to run a command as any user except root, this flaw can be used by the attacker to bypass that restriction.
A bug in the cdrom driver allows users with read access to the cdrom device to arbitrarily overwrite kernel memory when media is present thereby allowing a malicious user in the operator group to gain root privileges.
Check Point Endpoint Security includes data security, network security, advanced threat prevention, forensics, and remote access VPN solutions.
Some parts of the software run as a Windows service executed as ''NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM,'' which provides it with very powerful permissions, this vulnerability can be exploited to achieve privilege escalation, gaining access with NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM level privileges.

To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application that could exploit the vulnerability and take control of an affected system.
