Cybersecurity researchers have shed light on a cybercriminal group called Jingle Thief that has been observed targeting cloud environments associated with organizations in the retail and consumer services sectors for gift card fraud. "Jingle Thief attackers use phishing and smishing to steal credentials, to compromise organizations that issue gift cards," Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 researchers

Slack Nebula before 1.9.7 mishandles CIDR in some configurations and thus accepts arbitrary source IP addresses within the Nebula network.

Safe functions accept a single `&T` or `&mut T` but multiply by `n` to create slices extending beyond allocated memory when `n > 1`. These functions use `from_raw_parts` to create slices larger than the underlying allocation, violating memory safety. The binary_vec_io repository is archived and unmaintained.

Missing Authorization in Collection Provider component in the Liferay Portal 7.4.0 through 7.4.3.132, and Liferay DXP 2025.Q2.0 through 2025.Q2.9, 2025.Q1.0 through 2025.Q1.16, 2024.Q4.0 through 2024.Q4.7, 2024.Q3.1 through 2024.Q3.13, 2024.Q2.0 through 2024.Q2.13, 2024.Q1.1 through 2024.Q1.19 allows instance users to read and select unauthorized Blueprints through the Collection Providers across instances.

A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability, resulting from a regression, has been identified in Liferay Portal 7.4.0 through 7.4.3.132, and Liferay DXP 2025.Q2.0 through 2025.Q2.9, 2025.Q1.0 through 2025.Q1.16, 2024.Q4.0 through 2024.Q4.7, 2024.Q3.1 through 2024.Q3.13, 2024.Q2.1 through 2024.Q2.13, 2024.Q1.1 through 2024.Q1.19 allows a remote, authenticated attacker to inject and execute JavaScript code via the _com_liferay_dynamic_data_mapping_web_portlet_DDMPortlet_definition parameter. The malicious payload is executed within the victim's browser when they access a URL that includes the crafted parameter.

### Impact An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to large memory usage. This requires parsing the content stream of a page using the LZWDecode filter. ### Patches This has been fixed in [pypdf==6.1.3](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/releases/tag/6.1.3). ### Workarounds If you cannot upgrade yet, consider applying the changes from PR [#3502](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/pull/3502).

### Impact An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to an infinite loop. This requires parsing the content stream of a page which has an inline image using the DCTDecode filter. ### Patches This has been fixed in [pypdf==6.1.3](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/releases/tag/6.1.3). ### Workarounds If you cannot upgrade yet, consider applying the changes from PR [#3501](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/pull/3501).

# Description - In the `StaticHandlerImpl#sendDirectoryListing(...)` method under the `text/html` branch, file and directory names are directly embedded into the `href`, `title`, and link text without proper HTML escaping. - As a result, in environments where an attacker can control file names, injecting HTML/JavaScript is possible. Simply accessing the directory listing page will trigger an XSS. - Affected Code: - File: `vertx-web/src/main/java/io/vertx/ext/web/handler/impl/StaticHandlerImpl.java` - Lines: - 709–713: `normalizedDir` is constructed without escaping - 714–731: `<li><a ...>` elements insert file names directly into attributes and body without escaping - 744: parent directory name construction - 746–751: `{directory}`, `{parent}`, and `{files}` are inserted into the HTML template without escaping # Reproduction Steps 1. Prerequisites: - Directory listing is enabled using `StaticHandler` (e.g., `StaticHandler.create("p...

### Impact OpenBao's audit log experienced a regression wherein raw HTTP bodies used by few endpoints were not correctly redacted (HMAC'd). This impacted the following subsystems: - When using the ACME functionality of PKI, this would result in short-lived ACME verification challenge codes being leaked in the audit logs. - When using the OIDC issuer functionality of the identity subsystem, auth and token response codes along with claims could be leaked in the audit logs. Third-party plugins may be affected. ### Patches OpenBao v2.4.2 will patch this issue. ### Workarounds If users do not use the above functionality, they are not impacted. ACME verification codes are not usable after verification or challenge expiry so are of limited long-term use.

The Iranian nation-state group known as MuddyWater has been attributed to a new campaign that has leveraged a compromised email account to distribute a backdoor called Phoenix to various organizations across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, including over 100 government entities. The end goal of the campaign is to infiltrate high-value targets and facilitate intelligence gathering
