CVE-2019-13321 — This vulnerability allows network adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Xiaomi Browser Prior to 10.4.0

High CVSS 8

This vulnerability allows network adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Xiaomi Browser Prior to 10.4.0. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must connect to a malicious access point. The specific flaw exists within the handling of HTTP responses to the Captive Portal. A crafted HTML response can cause the Captive Portal to to open a browser to a specified location without user interaction. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-7467.

Privilege escalation and unsafe privilege management

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Map service accounts, operating-system identities, roles, capabilities, impersonation, set-user transitions, and administrative helper paths.
  • Determine whether untrusted users or lower-privilege processes can reach the affected transition or modify inputs it trusts.
  • Review file, socket, registry, device, job, container, and cloud-role permissions used before and after privilege changes.

Remediate safely

  • Apply the supported fix and redesign privileged operations as a minimal, authenticated, allowlisted interface.
  • Drop privileges before processing untrusted input, verify the drop succeeds, and remove unnecessary roles, capabilities, and write permissions.
  • Validate ownership and permissions at time of use and add explicit lower-to-higher privilege boundary tests.
