Cross-site Scripting (XSS) - Stored in GitHub repository nilsteampassnet/teampass prior to 3.0.10.
A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in Rotem Dynamics Rotem CRM up to 20230729. This affects an unknown part of the file /LandingPages/api/otp/send?id=[ID][ampersand]method=sms of the component OTP URI Interface. The manipulation leads to information exposure through discrepancy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The identifier VDB-233253 was assigned to this vulnerability. NOTE: The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
authentik is an open-source Identity Provider. Prior to versions 2023.4.3 and 2023.5.5, authentik does not verify the source of the X-Forwarded-For and X-Real-IP headers, both in the Python code and the go code. Only authentik setups that are directly accessible by users without a reverse proxy are susceptible to this. Possible spoofing of IP addresses in logs, downstream applications proxied by (built in) outpost, IP bypassing in custom flows if used.
This poses a possible security risk when someone has flows or policies that check the user's IP address, e.g. when they want to ignore the user's 2 factor authentication when the user is connected to the company network. A second security risk is that the IP addresses in the logfiles and user sessions are not reliable anymore. Anybody can spoof this address and one cannot verify that the user has logged in from the IP address that is in their account's log. A third risk is that this header is passed on to the proxied application behind an outpost. The application may do any kind of verification, logging, blocking or rate limiting based on the IP address, and this IP address can be overridden by anybody that want to.
Versions 2023.4.3 and 2023.5.5 contain a patch for this issue.
Mastodon is a free, open-source social network server based on ActivityPub. Starting in version 1.3 and prior to versions 3.5.9, 4.0.5, and 4.1.3, an attacker using carefully crafted oEmbed data can bypass the HTML sanitization performed by Mastodon and include arbitrary HTML in oEmbed preview cards. This introduces a vector for cross-site scripting (XSS) payloads that can be rendered in the user's browser when a preview card for a malicious link is clicked through. Versions 3.5.9, 4.0.5, and 4.1.3 contain a patch for this issue.
Mastodon is a free, open-source social network server based on ActivityPub. Starting in version 3.5.0 and prior to versions 3.5.9, 4.0.5, and 4.1.3, attackers using carefully crafted media files can cause Mastodon's media processing code to create arbitrary files at any location. This allows attackers to create and overwrite any file Mastodon has access to, allowing Denial of Service and arbitrary Remote Code Execution. Versions 3.5.9, 4.0.5, and 4.1.3 contain a patch for this issue.
Mastodon is a free, open-source social network server based on ActivityPub. When performing outgoing HTTP queries, Mastodon sets a timeout on individual read operations. Prior to versions 3.5.9, 4.0.5, and 4.1.3, a malicious server can indefinitely extend the duration of the response through slowloris-type attacks. This vulnerability can be used to keep all Mastodon workers busy for an extended duration of time, leading to the server becoming unresponsive. Versions 3.5.9, 4.0.5, and 4.1.3 contain a patch for this issue.
A vulnerability was found in ThinuTech ThinuCMS 1.5. It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file /category.php. The manipulation of the argument cat_id leads to sql injection. The attack may be launched remotely. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-233252.
ServiceNow has released upgrades and patches that address a Reflected Cross-Site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that was identified in the ServiceNow Polaris Layout. This vulnerability would enable an authenticated user to inject arbitrary scripts.
An issue was discovered in the USB subsystem in the Linux kernel through 6.4.2. There is an out-of-bounds and crash in read_descriptors in drivers/usb/core/sysfs.c.
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.4.2. A crafted UDF filesystem image causes a use-after-free write operation in the udf_put_super and udf_close_lvid functions in fs/udf/super.c. NOTE: the suse.com reference has a different perspective about this.
