SolarWinds N-central through 2020.1 allows session hijacking and requires user interaction or physical access. The N-Central JSESSIONID cookie attribute is not checked against multiple sources such as sourceip, MFA claim, etc. as long as the victim stays logged in within N-Central. To take advantage of this, cookie could be stolen and the JSESSIONID can be captured. On its own this is not a surprising result; low security tools allow the cookie to roam from machine to machine. The JSESSION cookie can then be used on the attackers’ workstation by browsing to the victim’s NCentral server URL and replacing the JSESSIONID attribute value by the captured value. Expected behavior would be to check this against a second source and enforce at least a reauthentication or multi factor request as N-Central is a highly privileged service.

SolarWinds N-Central version 12.3 GA and lower does not set the JSESSIONID attribute to HTTPOnly. This makes it possible to influence the cookie with javascript. An attacker could send the user to a prepared webpage or by influencing JavaScript to the extract the JESSIONID. This could then be forwarded to the attacker.

A mis-handling of invalid unicode characters in the Java implementation of Tink versions prior to 1.5 allows an attacker to change the ID part of a ciphertext, which result in the creation of a second ciphertext that can decrypt to the same plaintext. This can be a problem with encrypting deterministic AEAD with a single key, and rely on a unique ciphertext-per-plaintext.

Multiple stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Sage EasyPay 10.7.5.10 allow authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via multiple parameters through Unicode Transformations (Best-fit Mapping), as demonstrated by the full-width variants of the less-than sign (%EF%BC%9C) and greater-than sign (%EF%BC%9E).

TAXII libtaxii through 1.1.117, as used in EclecticIQ OpenTAXII through 0.2.0 and other products, allows SSRF via an initial http:// substring to the parse method, even when the no_network setting is used for the XML parser. NOTE: the vendor points out that the parse method "wraps the lxml library" and that this may be an issue to "raise ... to the lxml group.

<p>An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the Windows Backup Service improperly handles file operations.</p>
<p>To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would first have to gain execution on the victim system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application to elevate privileges.</p>
<p>The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how the Windows Backup Service handles file operations.</p>

<p>A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Visual Studio Code when the Python extension loads a Jupyter notebook file. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could run arbitrary code in the context of the current user. If the current user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker could take control of the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.</p>
<p>To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would need to convince a target to open a specially crafted file in Visual Studio Code with the Python extension installed.</p>
<p>The update addresses the vulnerability by modifying the way Visual Studio Code Python extension renders notebook content.</p>
