GHSA-6q87-84jw-cjhp: @sveltejs/kit vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting via tracked search_params

### Summary Unsanitized search param names cause XSS vulnerability. You are affected if you iterate over all entries of `event.url.searchParams` inside a server `load` function. Attackers can exploit it by crafting a malicious URL and getting a user to click a link with said URL. ### Details SvelteKit tracks which parameters in `event.url.searchParams` are read inside server `load` functions. If the application iterates over the these parameters, the `uses.search_params` array included in the boot script (embedded in the server-rendered HTML) will have any search param name included in unsanitized form. `packages/kit/src/runtime/server/utils.js:150` has the `stringify_uses(node)` function which prints these out. ### Reproduction In a `+page.server.js` or `+layout.server.js`: ```js /** @type {import('@sveltejs/kit').Load} */ export function load(event) { const values = {}; for (const key of event.url.searchParams.keys()) { values[key] = event.url.searchParams.get(key); ...

GHSA-472w-7w45-g3w5: Pleezer resource exhaustion through uncollected hook script processes

### Impact Hook scripts in pleezer can be triggered by various events like track changes and playback state changes. In affected versions, these scripts were spawned without proper process cleanup, leaving zombie processes in the system's process table. Even during normal usage, every track change and playback event would leave behind zombie processes. This leads to inevitable resource exhaustion over time as the system's process table fills up, eventually preventing new processes from being created. The issue is exacerbated if events occur rapidly, whether through normal use (e.g., skipping through a playlist) or potential manipulation of the Deezer Connect protocol traffic. This vulnerability affects all users who have configured hook scripts using the `--hook` option. ### Patches This issue has been fixed in version 0.16.0. Users should upgrade to this version, which properly manages child processes using asynchronous process handling and cleanup. ### Workarounds Users who canno...

GHSA-hmp7-x699-cvhq: Argo Events users can gain privileged access to the host system and cluster with EventSource and Sensor CR

### Summary: A user with permission to create/modify EventSource and Sensor custom resources can gain privileged access to the host system and cluster, even without having direct administrative privileges. ### Details: The `EventSource` and `Sensor` CRs allow the corresponding orchestrated pod to be customized with `spec.template` and `spec.template.container` (with type `k8s.io/api/core/v1.Container`), thus, any specification under `container` such as `command`, `args`, `securityContext `, `volumeMount` can be specified, and applied to the EventSource or Sensor pod due to the code logic below. ```golang if args.EventSource.Spec.Template != nil && args.EventSource.Spec.Template.Container != nil { if err := mergo.Merge(&eventSourceContainer, args.EventSource.Spec.Template.Container, mergo.WithOverride); err != nil { return nil, err } } ``` With these, A user would be able to gain privileged access to the cluster host, if he/she specified the Even...
