5) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8714)
The vulnerability allows a local user to bypass authentication process.
The vulnerability exists due to an error when processing authentication requests. A local user can bypass authentication process and gain elevated privileges on the target system.
6) Improper Access Control (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8716)
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.
The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions. A local user can bypass implemented security restrictions and cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on the target system.
7) Access of Uninitialized Pointer (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8715)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an invalid pointer. A local user can cause a denial of service condition on the target system.
8) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8729)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error. A local user can trigger memory corruption and gain elevated privileges on the target system.
9) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8706)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in a daemon. A remote attacker on the local network can trigger memory corruption and gain elevated privileges on the target system.
10) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8713)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in when processing authentication requests. A remote attacker on the local network can bypass authentication process and gain elevated privileges on the target system.
11) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8723)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote attacker on the local network can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
12) Heap-based Buffer Overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8732)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the firmware. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system with elevated privileges.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
13) Heap-based Buffer Overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8730)
The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system with elevated privileges.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
14) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8722)
The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in a subsystem. A local administrator can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system with elevated privileges.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
15) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8718)
The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in a subsystem. A local user can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system with elevated privileges.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
16) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8712)
