CVE-2026-46748
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
A vulnerability has been identified in SINEC INS (All versions < V1.0 SP2 Update 6). The affected system includes a binary that is configured with the cap_dac_override capability. This capability allows the process to bypass file system permission checks, resulting in unrestricted file system access. This could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges leading to arbitrary file modification and gaining root privileges on the system.

"value": "Se ha identificado una vulnerabilidad en SINEC INS (Todas las versiones anteriores a V1.0 SP2 Update 6). El sistema afectado incluye un binario que está configurado con la capacidad cap_dac_override. Esta capacidad permite al proceso omitir las comprobaciones de permisos del sistema de archivos, lo que resulta en un acceso irrestricto al sistema de archivos. Esto podría permitir a un atacante local escalar privilegios, lo que llevaría a la modificación arbitraria de archivos y a la obtención de privilegios de root en el sistema."
