Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a new Android banking malware called Crocodilus that's primarily designed to target users in Spain and Turkey. "Crocodilus enters the scene not as a simple clone, but as a fully-fledged threat from the outset, equipped with modern techniques such as remote control, black screen overlays, and advanced data harvesting via accessibility logging,"

### Impact The library used to extract archives (github.com/jaredallard/archives) was vulnerable to the "zip slip" vulnerability. This is used to extract native extension archives and repository source archives. A native extension or repository archive could be crafted in such a way where a remote code execution or modification/reading of a file is possible using the user who is running stencil. The severity is marked as "medium" because native extensions have always considered to be "unsafe" to run when not trusted. Native extensions are arbitrary code being ran, which could always do this same exploit with less steps. The medium severity is to reflect that this could be done even when a user is _not_ using a native extension, for example a repository source archive. However, one would need to mutate the archives provided by Github or perform some hackery with links, which may not be possible. Thus, "medium" is used out of an abundance of caution where I would've labeled this as "lo...
## Summary In a TUF repository, the targets role’s signature indicates which target files are trusted by clients. The role can delegate full or partial trust to other roles, meaning that that role is trusted to sign target file metadata. Delegated roles can further delegate trust to other delegated roles. When searching for metadata about a given target, tough failed to detect cyclical role delegations. ## Impact When interacting with TUF repositories which contain cyclical role delegations, tough will fail to detect the cycles and will exhaust its stack while recursively searching the delegation graph. The exhausted call stack will cause the process to abort. Impacted versions: < v0.20.0 ## Patches A fix for this issue is available in tough version 0.20.0 and later. Customers are advised to upgrade to version 0.20.0 or later and ensure any forked or derivative code is patched to incorporate the new fixes. ## Workarounds There is no recommended work around. Customers are advise...
