**Description:** The `feldman_vss` library contains timing side-channel vulnerabilities in its matrix operations, specifically within the `_find_secure_pivot` function and potentially other parts of `_secure_matrix_solve`. These vulnerabilities are due to Python's execution model, which does not guarantee constant-time execution. An attacker with the ability to measure the execution time of these functions (e.g., through repeated calls with carefully crafted inputs) could potentially recover secret information used in the Verifiable Secret Sharing (VSS) scheme. The `_find_secure_pivot` function, used during Gaussian elimination in `_secure_matrix_solve`, attempts to find a non-zero pivot element. However, the conditional statement `if matrix[row][col] != 0 and row_random < min_value:` has execution time that depends on the value of `matrix[row][col]`. This timing difference can be exploited by an attacker. The `constant_time_compare` function in this file also does not provide a con...

### Impact XSS vulnerability when the sanitizer is used with a `contentEditable` element to set the elements `innerHTML` to a sanitized string produced by the package. If the code is particularly crafted to abuse the code beautifier, that runs AFTER sanitation. ### Patches Patched in version 2.0.3

### Summary An attacker could write files with arbitrary content to the filesystem via the `/api/v1/document-store/loader/process` API. An attacker can reach RCE(Remote Code Execution) via file writing. ### Details All file writing functions in [packages/components/src/storageUtils.ts](https://github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise/blob/main/packages/components/src/storageUtils.ts) are vulnerable. - addBase64FilesToStorage - addArrayFilesToStorage - addSingleFileToStorage The fileName parameter, which is an untrusted external input, is being used as an argument to path.join() without verification. ```javascript const filePath = path.join(dir, fileName) fs.writeFileSync(filePath, bf) ``` Therefore, users can move to the parent folder via `../` and write files to any path. Once file writing is possible in all paths, an attacker can reach RCE (Remote Code Execution) in a variety of ways. In PoC (Proof of Concept), RCE was reached by overwriting package.json. ### PoC In PoC, `package.json` is o...

Symantec demonstrates OpenAI's Operator Agent in PoC phishing attack, highlighting AI security risks and the need for proper cybersecurity.

### Impact Calling `setTimer` in Azle versions `0.27.0`, `0.28.0`, and `0.29.0` causes an immediate infinite loop of timers to be executed on the canister, each timer attempting to clean up the global state of the previous timer. The infinite loop will occur with any valid invocation of `setTimer`. ### Patches The problem has been fixed as of Azle version `0.30.0`. ### Workarounds If a canister is caught in this infinite loop after calling `setTimer`, the canister can be upgraded and the timers will all be cleared, thus ending the loop.

# Impact An attacker may be able to exploit this vulnerability to bypass authentication or authorization mechanisms in systems that rely on xml-crypto for verifying signed XML documents. The vulnerability allows an attacker to modify a valid signed XML message in a way that still passes signature verification checks. For example, it could be used to alter critical identity or access control attributes, enabling an attacker to escalate privileges or impersonate another user. # Patches All versions <= 6.0.0 are affected. Please upgrade to version 6.0.1. If you are still using v2.x or v3.x please upgrade to the associated patch version. # Indicators of Compromise When logging XML payloads, check for the following indicators. If the payload includes encrypted elements, ensure you analyze the decrypted version for a complete assessment. (If encryption is not used, analyze the original XML document directly). This applies to various XML-based authentication and authorization flows, such ...

A Privilege Escalation through a Mass Assignment exists in Camaleon CMS When a user wishes to change his password, the 'updated_ajax' method of the UsersController is called. The vulnerability stems from the use of the dangerous permit! method, which allows all parameters to pass through without any filtering.

# Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-6m2c-76ff-6vrf. This link is maintained to preserve external references. # Original Description A maliciously crafted QPY file can potential execute arbitrary-code embedded in the payload without privilege escalation when deserialising QPY formats < 13. A python process calling Qiskit 0.18.0 through 1.4.1's `qiskit.qpy.load()` function could potentially execute any arbitrary Python code embedded in the correct place in the binary file as part of specially constructed payload.
