Imperva SecureSphere <= v13 - Privilege Escalation
There is a program named PCE.py which runs as root and starts a unix domain socket listener in /tmp/PCEListener. The problem is that the permissions in this socket are misconfigured. Every user on the system can interact with it. Using this exploit you can add arbritary ssh keys to authorized_keys for the admin user and login as the admin.
Mitigation:
Ensure that the permissions of the unix domain socket are properly configured.
