CVE-2026-40550
Privilege Escalation in multiple BinSoft products
Description
Multiple BinSoft products are vulnerable to Privilege Escalation due to excessive database privileges assigned to the user used by the application. An attacker with access to any running application instance connected to the backend server can extract database credentials from the application’s memory by inspecting the running process. While ability to retrieve credentials from memory is the expected behavior, the exposed credentials grant administrative access to the database, exceeding the privileges required for normal application functionality. This allows an attacker to perform actions beyond those permitted through the application interface. The described issue affects all published versions. The vendor stated that this issue is a direct result of the architecture model in which the software is distributed, and that it will be mitigated with a corrected installation manual.

Action Type Old Value New Value Added Translation Title: mpGabinet de BinSoft, Description: Múltiples productos BinSoft son vulnerables a la escalada de privilegios debido a los privilegios excesivos de base de datos asignados al usuario utilizado por la aplicación. Un atacante con acceso a cualquier instancia de aplicación en ejecución conectada al servidor de backend puede extraer credenciales de la base de datos de la memoria de la aplicación inspeccionando el proceso en ejecución. Si bien la capacidad de recuperar credenciales de la memoria es el comportamiento esperado, las credenciales expuestas otorgan acceso administrativo a la base de datos, excediendo los privilegios requeridos para la funcionalidad normal de la aplicación. Esto permite a un atacante realizar acciones más allá de las permitidas a través de la interfaz de la aplicación. El problema descrito afecta a todas las versiones publicadas. El proveedor declaró que este problema es un resultado directo del modelo de arquitectura en el que se distribuye el software, y que se mitigará con un manual de instalación corregido. -
