Story teaser text: Cybersecurity leaders face mounting pressure to stop attacks before they start, and the best defense may come down to the settings you choose on day one. In this piece, Yuriy Tsibere explores how default policies like deny-by-default, MFA enforcement, and application Ringfencing ™ can eliminate entire categories of risk. From disabling Office macros to blocking outbound server
Google said it's implementing a new policy requiring developers of cryptocurrency exchanges and wallets to obtain government licenses before publishing apps in 15 jurisdictions in order to "ensure a safe and compliant ecosystem for users." The policy applies to markets like Bahrain, Canada, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, the Philippines, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Thailand,
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Wednesday added two security flaws impacting N-able N-central to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, citing evidence of active exploitation. N-able N-central is a Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) platform designed for Managed Service Providers (MSPs), allowing customers to efficiently manage and secure
Active Storage attempts to prevent the use of potentially unsafe image transformation methods and parameters by default. The default allowed list contains three methods allowing for the circumvention of the safe defaults which enables potential command injection vulnerabilities in cases where arbitrary user supplied input is accepted as valid transformation methods or parameters. This has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2025-24293. Versions Affected: >= 5.2.0 Not affected: < 5.2.0 Fixed Versions: 7.1.5.2, 7.2.2.2, 8.0.2.1 Impact ------ This vulnerability impacts applications that use Active Storage with the image_processing processing gem in addition to mini_magick as the image processor. Vulnerable code will look something similar to this: ``` <%= image_tag blob.variant(params[:t] => params[:v]) %> ``` Where the transformation method or its arguments are untrusted arbitrary input. All users running an affected release should either upgrade or use one of the wo...
A Helm contributor discovered an improper validation of type error when parsing Chart.yaml and index.yaml files that can lead to a panic. ### Impact There are two areas of YAML validation that were impacted. First, when a `Chart.yaml` file had a `null` maintainer or the `child` or `parent` of a dependencies `import-values` could be parsed as something other than a string, `helm lint` would panic. Second, when an `index.yaml` had an empty entry in the list of chart versions Helm would panic on interactions with that repository. ### Patches This issue has been resolved in Helm v3.18.5. ### Workarounds Ensure YAML files are formatted as Helm expects prior to processing them with Helm. ### References Helm's security policy is spelled out in detail in our [SECURITY](https://github.com/helm/community/blob/master/SECURITY.md) document. ### Credits Disclosed by Jakub Ciolek at AlphaSense.
A Helm contributor discovered that it was possible to craft a JSON Schema file in a manner which could cause Helm to use all available memory and have an out of memory (OOM) termination. ### Impact A malicious chart can point `$ref` in _values.schema.json_ to a device (e.g. `/dev/*`) or other problem file which could cause Helm to use all available memory and have an out of memory (OOM) termination. ### Patches This issue has been resolved in Helm v3.18.5. ### Workarounds Make sure that all Helm charts that are being loaded into Helm doesn't have any reference of `$ref` pointing to `/dev/zero`. ### References Helm's security policy is spelled out in detail in our [SECURITY](https://github.com/helm/community/blob/master/SECURITY.md) document. ### Credits Disclosed by Jakub Ciolek at AlphaSense.
DPRK hackers are throwing every kind of malware at the wall and seeing what sticks, deploying stealers, backdoors, and ransomware all at once.
The HTTP/2 [MadeYouReset vulnerability](https://galbarnahum.com/made-you-reset) has a mild effect on swift-nio-http2. swift-nio-http2 mostly protects against MadeYouReset by using a number of existing denial-of-service prevention patterns that we added in response to the RapidReset vulnerabilities. The result is that servers are not vulnerable to naive attacks based on MadeYouReset, and the naive PoC examples do not affect swift-nio-http2. However, in 1.38.0 we added some defense-in-depth measures as a precautionary measure that detect clients behaving "weirdly". These defense in depth measures tackle resource drain attacks where attackers interleave attack traffic with legitimate traffic to try to evade our existing DoS prevention mechanisms. We recommend all adopters move to 1.38.0 as soon as possible to mitigate against more sophisticated attacks that may appear in the future. We are very grateful to @galbarnahum, @AnatBB, and @YanivRL for their reporting and assistance with our...
## Summary The `steam-workshop-deploy` github action does not exclude the `.git` directory when packaging content for deployment and provides no built-in way to do so. If a `.git` folder exists in the target directory (e.g., due to a local Git repo, custom project structure, or via the `actions/checkout` workflow), it is silently included in the output package. This results in leakage of sensitive repository metadata and potentially credentials, including github personal access tokens (PATs) embedded in `.git/config`. Many game modding projects require packaging from the project root as the game expects certain files (assets, configuration, metadata) to be present at specific root-level paths. Consequently, the `.git` directory often exists alongside these required files and gets packaged unintentionally, especially when using `actions/checkout`. While github hosted runners automatically revoke ephemeral credentials at the end of each job, the severity of this issue increases dramat...
