A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability has been identified in the Angular Template Compiler. The vulnerability exists because Angular’s internal sanitization schema fails to recognize the `href` and `xlink:href` attributes of SVG `<script>` elements as a **Resource URL** context. In a standard security model, attributes that can load and execute code (like a script's source) should be strictly validated. However, because the compiler does not classify these specific SVG attributes correctly, it allows attackers to bypass Angular's built-in security protections. When template binding is used to assign user-controlled data to these attributes for example, `<script [attr.href]="userInput">` the compiler treats the value as a standard string or a non-sensitive URL rather than a resource link. This enables an attacker to provide a malicious payload, such as a `data:text/javascript` URI or a link to an external malicious script. ### Impact When successfully exploited, this vulnerabili...
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities was identified in October CMS backend configuration forms: - **Editor Settings Markup Styles** A user with the `Global Editor Settings` permission could inject malicious HTML/JS into the stylesheet input at *Settings → Editor Settings → Markup Styles*. A specially crafted input could break out of the intended `<style>` context, allowing arbitrary script execution across backend pages for all users. --- ### Impact - Persistent XSS across the backend interface. - Exploitable by lower-privileged accounts with the above permissions. - Potential consequences include privilege escalation, session hijacking, and execution of unauthorized actions in victim sessions. --- ### Patches The vulnerability has been patched in **v4.0.12** and **v3.7.13**. Stylesheet inputs are now sanitized to prevent injection of arbitrary HTML/JS. All users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to the latest patched version. --- ### Workarounds I...

The Security Labs team at Snyk is reporting a security issue affecting Authlib, which was identified during a recent research project. A vulnerability has been identified that can result in a 1-click Account Takeover in applications that use the Authlib library. (5.7 CVSS v3: AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) **Description** Cache-backed state/request-token storage is not tied to the initiating user session, so CSRF is possible for any attacker that has a valid state (easily obtainable via an attacker-initiated authentication flow). When a cache is supplied to the OAuth client registry, `FrameworkIntegration.set_state_data` writes the entire state blob under `_state_{app}_{state},` and `get_state_data` ignores the caller’s session altogether. \[1\]\[2\] ```py def _get_cache_data(self, key): value = self.cache.get(key) if not value: return None try: return json.loads(value) except (TypeError, ValueError): ret...
