### Summary A critical security vulnerability exists in the `JonesFaithfulTransformation.from_transformation_str()` method within the `pymatgen` library. This method insecurely utilizes eval() for processing input, enabling execution of arbitrary code when parsing untrusted input. This can be exploited when parsing a maliciously-created CIF file. ### Details The cause of the vulnerability is in [pymatgen/symmetry/settings.py#L97C1-L111C108](https://github.com/materialsproject/pymatgen/blob/master/pymatgen/symmetry/settings.py#L97C1-L111C108). The flawed code segment involves a regular expression operation followed by the use of `eval()`. #### Vulnerable code ```py basis_change = [ re.sub(r"(?<=\w|\))(?=\() | (?<=\))(?=\w) | (?<=(\d|a|b|c))(?=([abc]))", r"*", string, flags=re.X) for string in basis_change ] """snip""" ([eval(x, {"__builtins__": None}, {"a": a, "b": b, "c": c}) for x in basis_change]) ``` The use of eval, even with `__builtins__` set to `None`, is still a sec...

Stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Document and Media widget in Liferay Portal 7.4.3.18 through 7.4.3.101, and Liferay DXP 2023.Q3 before patch 6, and 7.4 update 18 through 92 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted payload injected into a document's “Title” text field.

The Calendar module in Liferay Portal 7.2.0 through 7.4.2, and older unsupported versions, and Liferay DXP 7.3 before service pack 3, 7.2 before fix pack 15, and older unsupported versions does not escape user supplied data in the default notification email template, which allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the title of a calendar event or the user's name. This may lead to a content spoofing or cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks depending on the capability of the receiver's mail client.

Stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Expando module's geolocation custom fields in Liferay Portal 7.2.0 through 7.4.2, and older unsupported versions, and Liferay DXP 7.3 before service pack 3, 7.2 before fix pack 17, and older unsupported versions allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted payload injected into the name text field of a geolocation custom field.

Stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Users Admin module's edit user page in Liferay Portal 7.2.0 through 7.4.2, and older unsupported versions, and Liferay DXP 7.3 before service pack 3, 7.2 before fix pack 17, and older unsupported versions allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted payload injected into an organization’s “Name” text field

Reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Language Override edit screen in Liferay Portal 7.4.3.8 through 7.4.3.97, and Liferay DXP 2023.Q3 before patch 5, and 7.4 update 4 through 92 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the `_com_liferay_portal_language_override_web_internal_portlet_PLOPortlet_key` parameter.

Reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability on the add assignees to a role page in Liferay Portal 7.3.3 through 7.4.3.97, and Liferay DXP 2023.Q3 before patch 6, 7.4 GA through update 92, and 7.3 before update 34 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the `_com_liferay_roles_admin_web_portlet_RolesAdminPortlet_tabs2` parameter.
