Title
Capgo - Privilege Escalation via Cross-Scope RBAC Role Assignment
Summary
Capgo before 12.128.2 allows org admins to assign org-scoped RBAC roles at app scope without validating role scope compatibility, including to pending invitees. Attackers can pre-seed malformed high-privilege bindings that survive invite acceptance, enabling accepted low-privilege users to perform unauthorized privileged app actions.

CVE-2026-57501 (GCVE-0-2026-57501)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-07-09 22:27 – Updated: 2026-07-10 20:59

Title
Zen: Context-menu "Open link in glance" / "Split link in new tab" loads a page-controlled link with the System principal, bypassing the web-content scheme restriction
Summary
Zen is a firefox-based browser. Prior to 1.21.5b, Zen's glance and split-view context-menu actions, Open link in glance and Split link in new tab, load a page-controlled link URL with the System principal instead of the originating page's principal, allowing a malicious web page to place a link to a file URL that can load with System privileges when opened through either context-menu item and bypass the content-to-file security check that blocks an ordinary click. This issue is fixed in version 1.21.5b.

CVE-2026-59093 (GCVE-0-2026-59093)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-07-02 19:40 – Updated: 2026-07-14 22:03 X_Open Source
VLAI
Title
Weaviate < 1.38.0 - Privilege Escalation via Unchecked Permissions in RBAC Role Assignment
Summary
Weaviate before 1.38.0 does not verify that a principal performing an RBAC role assignment holds the permissions granted by the assigned role. The assignRoleToUser and assignRoleToGroup handlers (POST /authz/users/{id}/assign and /authz/groups/{id}/assign) authorize only that the caller may assign roles to the target user or group, not the permissions contained in the assigned roles, unlike role creation which enforces that a user can only create roles with permissions less than or equal to its own. A user holding only the delegated assign_and_revoke_users or assign_and_revoke_groups permission can assign the built-in admin role, or any high-privilege custom role, to itself or others, escalating to full administrative control of the database.

Mitigation ID: MIT-1

Phases: Architecture and Design, Operation

Description:

  • Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
Mitigation ID: MIT-17

Phases: Architecture and Design, Operation

Strategy: Environment Hardening

Description:

  • Run your code using the lowest privileges that are required to accomplish the necessary tasks [REF-76]. If possible, create isolated accounts with limited privileges that are only used for a single task. That way, a successful attack will not immediately give the attacker access to the rest of the software or its environment. For example, database applications rarely need to run as the database administrator, especially in day-to-day operations.
