GHSA-6xw4-3v39-52mm: Rack is vulnerable to a memory-exhaustion DoS through unbounded URL-encoded body parsing

## Summary `Rack::Request#POST` reads the entire request body into memory for `Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded`, calling `rack.input.read(nil)` without enforcing a length or cap. Large request bodies can therefore be buffered completely into process memory before parsing, leading to denial of service (DoS) through memory exhaustion. ## Details When handling non-multipart form submissions, Rack’s request parser performs: ```ruby form_vars = get_header(RACK_INPUT).read ``` Since `read` is called with no argument, the entire request body is loaded into a Ruby `String`. This occurs before query parameter parsing or enforcement of any `params_limit`. As a result, Rack applications without an upstream body-size limit can experience unbounded memory allocation proportional to request size. ## Impact Attackers can send large `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` bodies to consume process memory, causing slowdowns or termination by the operating system (OOM). The effect sca...

GHSA-r657-rxjc-j557: Rack has a Possible Information Disclosure Vulnerability

## Summary A possible information disclosure vulnerability existed in `Rack::Sendfile` when running behind a proxy that supports `x-sendfile` headers (such as Nginx). Specially crafted headers could cause `Rack::Sendfile` to miscommunicate with the proxy and trigger unintended internal requests, potentially bypassing proxy-level access restrictions. ## Details When `Rack::Sendfile` received untrusted `x-sendfile-type` or `x-accel-mapping` headers from a client, it would interpret them as proxy configuration directives. This could cause the middleware to send a "redirect" response to the proxy, prompting it to reissue a new internal request that was **not subject to the proxy's access controls**. An attacker could exploit this by: 1. Setting a crafted `x-sendfile-type: x-accel-redirect` header. 2. Setting a crafted `x-accel-mapping` header. 3. Requesting a path that qualifies for proxy-based acceleration. ## Impact Attackers could bypass proxy-enforced restrictions and access inte...

GHSA-47m2-4cr7-mhcw: quic-go: Panic occurs when queuing undecryptable packets after handshake completion

## Summary A misbehaving or malicious server can trigger an assertion in a quic-go client (and crash the process) by sending a premature HANDSHAKE_DONE frame during the handshake. ## Impact A misbehaving or malicious server can cause a denial-of-service (DoS) attack on the quic-go client by triggering an assertion failure, leading to a process crash. This requires no authentication and can be exploited during the handshake phase. Observed in the wild with certain server implementations (e.g. Solana's Firedancer QUIC). ## Affected Versions - All versions prior to v0.49.1 (for the 0.49 branch) - Versions v0.50.0 to v0.54.0 (inclusive) - Fixed in v0.49.1, v0.54.1, and v0.55.0 onward Users are recommended to upgrade to the latest patched version in their respective maintenance branch or to v0.55.0 or later. ## Details For a regular 1-RTT handshake, QUIC uses three sets of keys to encrypt / decrypt QUIC packets: - Initial keys (derived from a static key and the connection ID) - Han...

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in workflow process builder in Liferay Portal 7.4.3.21 through 7.4.3.111, and Liferay DXP 2023.Q4.0 through 2023.Q4.5, 2023.Q3.1 through 2023.Q3.8, and 7.4 update 21 through update 92 allows remote authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the crafted input in a workflow definition.

GHSA-rpjr-pcmr-9ppw: Alt Redirect: Potential Authentication Bypass by Spoofing through query-string stripping logic flaw

The Alt Redirect 1.6.3 addon for Statamic fails to consistently strip query string parameters when the "Query String Strip" feature is enabled. Case variations, encoded keys, and duplicates are not removed, allowing attackers to bypass sanitization. This may lead to cache poisoning, parameter pollution, or denial of service.
