**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An attacker with basic user permissions can send specially crafted requests to modify the configuration of an Azure CycleCloud cluster to gain Root level permissions enabling them to execute commands on any Azure CycleCloud cluster in the current instance and in some scenarios, compromise administrator credentials.

**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.

Welcome to the third installment in our series on transparency at the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC). In this ongoing discussion, we talk about our commitment to providing comprehensive vulnerability information to our customers. At MSRC, our mission is to protect our customers, communities, and Microsoft, from current and emerging threats to security and privacy.

**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploits this vulnerability would gain the same privileges as the SuperUser role.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An attacker with the administrator role of "azure\_pg\_admin" in the target environment could exploit this vulnerability to gain the same privileges as a SuperUser by sending a specially crafted request to an Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server with specific non-default functionality enabled.

A flaw was found in Ansible-Core. This vulnerability allows attackers to bypass unsafe content protections using the hostvars object to reference and execute templated content. This issue can lead to arbitrary code execution if remote data or module outputs are improperly templated within playbooks.

An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in the component DocumentBuilderFactory of powertac-server v1.9.0 allows attackers to access sensitive information or execute arbitrary code via supplying a crafted request containing malicious XML entities.

Windows users are at risk for full device takeover by an emerging malicious version of the Remcos remote admin tool, which is being used in an ongoing campaign exploiting a known remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in Microsoft Office and WordPad.
