A vulnerability was found in SourceCodester Online Internship Management System 1.0. It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file admin/login.php of the component POST Parameter Handler. The manipulation of the argument email leads to sql injection. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. VDB-228770 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability.
A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in SourceCodester Online Exam System 1.0. This affects an unknown part of the file adminpanel/admin/facebox_modal/updateCourse.php of the component GET Parameter Handler. The manipulation of the argument id leads to sql injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The associated identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-228771.
In Lightbend Akka before 2.8.1, the async-dns resolver (used by Discovery in DNS mode and transitively by Cluster Bootstrap) uses predictable DNS transaction IDs when resolving DNS records, making DNS resolution subject to poisoning by an attacker. If the application performing discovery does not validate (e.g., via TLS) the authenticity of the discovered service, this may result in exfiltration of application data (e.g., persistence events may be published to an unintended Kafka broker). If such validation is performed, then the poisoning constitutes a denial of access to the intended service. This affects Akka 2.5.14 through 2.8.0, and Akka Discovery through 2.8.0.
A path traversal issue was discovered on GL.iNet devices before 3.216. Through the file sharing feature, it is possible to share an arbitrary directory, such as /tmp or /etc, because there is no server-side restriction to limit sharing to the USB path.
spring-boot-actuator-logview 0.2.13 allows Directory Traversal to sibling directories via LogViewEndpoint.view.
A directory traversal vulnerability in the /get-artifact API method of the mlflow platform up to v2.0.1 allows attackers to read arbitrary files on the server via the path parameter.
Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that could allow a rogue server on the local network to modify its URL to point back to the loopback adapter was addressed in Western Digital My Cloud OS 5 devices. This could allow the URL to exploit other vulnerabilities on the local server.This issue affects My Cloud OS 5 devices before 5.26.202.
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability that was caused by a command that read files from a privileged location and created a system command without sanitizing the read data. This command could be triggered by an attacker remotely to cause code execution and gain a reverse shell in Western Digital My Cloud OS 5 devices.This issue affects My Cloud OS 5: before 5.26.119.
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command ('Command Injection') vulnerability that could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the root user on a vulnerable CGI file was discovered in Western Digital My Cloud OS 5 devicesThis issue affects My Cloud OS 5: before 5.26.119.
Wings is the server control plane for Pterodactyl Panel. A vulnerability affecting versions prior to 1.7.5 and versions 1.11.0 prior to 1.11.6 impacts anyone running the affected versions of Wings. This vulnerability can be used to gain access to the host system running Wings if a user is able to modify an server's install script or the install script executes code supplied by the user (either through environment variables, or commands that execute commands based off of user data). This vulnerability has been resolved in version `v1.11.6` of Wings, and has been back-ported to the 1.7 release series in `v1.7.5`. Anyone running `v1.11.x` should upgrade to `v1.11.6` and anyone running `v1.7.x` should upgrade to `v1.7.5`.
There are no workarounds aside from upgrading. Running Wings with a rootless container runtime may mitigate the severity of any attacks, however the majority of users are using container runtimes that run as root as per the Wings documentation. SELinux may prevent attackers from performing certain operations against the host system, however privileged containers have a lot of freedom even on systems with SELinux enabled.
It should be noted that this was a known attack vector, for attackers to easily exploit this attack it would require compromising an administrator account on a Panel. However, certain eggs (the data structure that holds the install scripts that get passed to Wings) have an issue where they are unknowingly executing shell commands with escalated privileges provided by untrusted user data.
