The barracudavpn component of the Barracuda VPN Client prior to version 5.0.2.7 for Linux, macOS, and OpenBSD runs as a privileged process and can allow an unprivileged local attacker to load a malicious library, resulting in arbitrary code executing as root.
Cisco VPN Client 5.x through 5.0.07.0440 uses weak permissions for vpnclient.ini, which allows local users to gain privileges by entering an arbitrary program name in the Command field of the ApplicationLauncher section.
The VPN driver in Cisco VPN Client on Windows does not properly interact with the kernel, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel fault and system crash) via a crafted application, aka Bug ID CSCuc81669.
