Last year, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson rushed for 1,206 yards. This year, the betting public thinks he'll generate a lot fewer rushing yards than that.

Abstract:
We consider a Jackson network in a general heavy traffic diffusion regime with the $alpha$-parametrization . We also assume that each customer may abandon the system while waiting. We show that in this regime the queue-length process converges to a multi-dimensional regulated Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process.

LEADTOOLS Active-X control suffers from multiple DLL side loading vulnerabilities.

Multiple Microsoft Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/2003 HTML Help file loading hijack vulnerabilities exist. Proof of concept included.

Microsoft Teams Instant Messenger application on Windows 7 SP1 fully patched is vulnerable to remote DLL hijacking.

This Metasploit module will bypass UAC on Windows 8-10 by hijacking a special key in the Registry under the Current User hive, and inserting a custom command that will get invoked when any binary (.exe) application is launched. But slui.exe is an auto-elevated binary that is vulnerable to file handler hijacking. When we run slui.exe with changed Registry key (HKCU:SoftwareClassesexefileshellopencommand), it will run our custom command as Admin instead of slui.exe. The module modifies the registry in order for this exploit to work. The modification is reverted once the exploitation attempt has finished. The module does not require the architecture of the payload to match the OS. If specifying EXE::Custom your DLL should call ExitProcess() after starting the payload in a different process.

The VMX process (vmware-vmx.exe) process configures and hosts an instance of VM. As is common with desktop virtualization platforms the VM host usually has privileged access into the OS such as mapping physical memory which represents a security risk. To mitigate this the VMX process is created with an elevated integrity level by the authentication daemon (vmware-authd.exe) which runs at SYSTEM. This prevents a non-administrator user opening the process and abusing its elevated access. Unfortunately the process is created as the desktop user which results in the elevated process sharing resources such as COM registrations with the normal user who can modify the registry to force an arbitrary DLL to be loaded into the VMX process. Affects VMware Workstation Windows version 14.1.5 (on Windows 10). Also tested on VMware Player version 15.
