### Impact Stored XSS vulnerabilities in Collections and Taxonomies allow authenticated users with content creation permissions to inject malicious JavaScript that executes when viewed by higher-privileged users. This affects: - Control panel users with permission to create or edit Collections and Taxonomies - Versions up to and including 5.22.0 The vulnerability can be exploited to: - Change a super admin's password (versions ≤ 5.21.0) - Change a super admin's email address to initiate password reset (version 5.22.0) - Gain unauthorized access to superadmin accounts The attack requires: - An authenticated user with control panel and content creation permissions - A super admin to view the compromised content ### Patches This has been fixed in 5.22.1. ### Credits Statamic thanks [Wojtek Chwala](https://github.com/wojtekchwala) for responsibly reporting the identified issues and working with us as we addressed them.

### Summary When using subrequest authentication, Anubis did not perform validation of the redirect URL and redirects user to any URL scheme. While most modern browsers do not allow a redirect to `javascript:` URLs, it could still trigger dangerous behavior in some cases. `GET https://example.com/.within.website/?redir=javascript:alert()` responds with `Location: javascript:alert()`. ### Impact Anybody with a subrequest authentication seems affected. Using `javascript:` URLs will probably be blocked by most modern browsers, but using custom protocols for third-party applications might still trigger dangerous operations. ### Note This was originally reported by @mbiesiad against Weblate.

A new ICE proposal outlines a 24/7 transport operation run by armed contractors—turning Texas into the logistical backbone of an industrialized deportation machine.

Ribbon Communications discloses a year-long breach by nation-state actors. The attack highlights critical supply chain risk, reflecting the Salt Typhoon and F5 espionage trends.

An open redirect vulnerability exists in Byaidu PDFMathTranslate v1.9.9 that allows attackers to craft URLs that cause the application to redirect users to arbitrary external websites via the file parameter to the /gradio_api endpoint. This vulnerability could be exploited for phishing attacks or to bypass security filters.

Attackers don’t need to hack you to find you. They just piece together what’s already public.

A reminder that one supplier’s breach can ripple far, fueling phishing and ID theft long after the news fades.

Tina Pal wants a word about your PayPal account—but it's a scam. Here’s how to spot the red flags and what to do if you’ve already called.

An example dag `example_dag_decorator` had non-validated parameter that allowed the UI user to redirect the example to a malicious server and execute code on worker. This however required that the example dags are enabled in production (not default) or the example dag code copied to build your own similar dag. If you used the `example_dag_decorator` please review it and apply the changes implemented in Airflow 3.0.5 accordingly.
