Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In August 2023
A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the experimental policy mechanism in all active release lines: 16.x, 18.x and, 20.x. The use of the deprecated API `process.binding()` can bypass the policy mechanism by requiring internal modules and eventually take advantage of `process.binding('spawn_sync')` run arbitrary code, outside of the limits defined in a `policy.json` file. Please note that at the time this CVE was issued, the policy is an experimental feature of Node.js.
XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it. The create action is vulnerable to a CSRF attack, allowing script and thus remote code execution when targeting a user with script/programming right, thus compromising the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the whole XWiki installation. When a user with script right views this image and a log message `ERROR foo - Script executed!` appears in the log, the XWiki installation is vulnerable. This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.9 and 15.4RC1 by requiring a CSRF token for the actual page creation.
XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it. XWiki supports scheduled jobs that contain Groovy scripts. Currently, the job checks the content author of the job for programming right. However, modifying or adding a job script to a document doesn't modify the content author. Together with a CSRF vulnerability in the job scheduler, this can be exploited for remote code execution by an attacker with edit right on the wiki. If the attack is successful, an error log entry with "Job content executed" will be produced. This vulnerability has been patched in XWiki 14.10.9 and 15.4RC1.
A stack-based buffer overflow exists in Juplink RX4-1500, a WiFi router, in versions 1.0.2 through 1.0.5. An authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to achieve code execution as root.
Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in sourcecodester Student Study Center Desk Management System 1.0 allows attackers to run arbitrary code via crafted GET request to web application URL.
Walchem Intuition 9 firmware versions prior to v4.21 are missing authentication for some of the API routes of the management web server. This could allow an attacker to download and export sensitive data.
ETIC Telecom RAS versions 4.7.0 and prior the web management portal authentication disabled by default. This could allow an attacker with adjacent network access to alter the configuration of the device or cause a denial-of-service condition.
Walchem Intuition 9 firmware versions prior to v4.21 are vulnerable to improper authentication. Login credentials are stored in a format that could allow an attacker to use them as-is to login and gain access to the device.
shescape is simple shell escape library for JavaScript. This may impact users that use Shescape on Windows in a threaded context. The vulnerability can result in Shescape escaping (or quoting) for the wrong shell, thus allowing attackers to bypass protections depending on the combination of expected and used shell. This bug has been patched in version 1.7.4.
Craft is a CMS for creating custom digital experiences on the web and beyond. Bypassing the validatePath function can lead to potential remote code execution. This vulnerability can lead to malicious control of vulnerable systems and data exfiltrations. Although the vulnerability is exploitable only in the authenticated users, configuration with ALLOW_ADMIN_CHANGES=true, there is still a potential security threat (Remote Code Execution). This issue has been patched in version 4.4.15 and version 3.8.15.
