Security researchers found two techniques to crack at least eight brands of electronic safes—used to secure everything from guns to narcotics—that are sold with Securam Prologic locks.

**Pre-requisites:** * Have a compromised security key (https://craftcms.com/knowledge-base/securing-craft#keep-your-secrets-secret) * Somehow, manage to create an arbitrary file in Craft’s `/storage/backups` folder. With those two pieces in place, you could create a specific, malicious request to the `/updater/restore-db` endpoint to execute CLI commands remotely.

A new report by VulnCheck exposes a critical command injection flaw (CVE-2025-53652) in the Jenkins Git Parameter plugin.…

A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Liferay Portal 7.4.0 through 7.4.3.133, and Liferay DXP 2025.Q1.0 through 2025.Q1.4 ,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.Q1.15, 7.4 GA through update 92 allows an remote non-authenticated attacker to inject JavaScript into the modules/apps/blogs/blogs-web/src/main/resources/META-INF/resources/blogs/entry_cover_image_caption.jsp

In versions before `0.15.0`, `@workos-inc/authkit-remix` exposed sensitive authentication artifacts — specifically sealedSession and accessToken — by returning them from the `authkitLoader`. This caused them to be rendered into the browser HTML. ### Impact Exposure of these artifacts could lead to session hijacking in environments where cross-site scripting (XSS), malicious browser extensions, or local inspection is possible. ### Patches Patched in [https://github.com/workos/authkit-remix/releases/tag/v0.15.0](https://github.com/workos/authkit-remix/releases/tag/v0.15.0) In patched versions: - `sealedSession` and `accessToken` are no longer returned by default from the `authkitLoader`. - A secure server-side mechanism is provided to fetch an access token as needed.

In versions before `0.7.0`, `@workos-inc/authkit-react-router` exposed sensitive authentication artifacts — specifically `sealedSession` and `accessToken` by returning them from the `authkitLoader`. This caused them to be rendered into the browser HTML. ### Impact This information disclosure could lead to session hijacking in environments where cross-site scripting (XSS), malicious browser extensions, or local inspection is possible. ### Patches Patched in [https://github.com/workos/authkit-react-router/releases/tag/v0.7.0](https://github.com/workos/authkit-react-router/releases/tag/v0.7.0) In patched versions: - `sealedSession` and `accessToken` are no longer returned by default from the `authkitLoader`. - A secure server-side mechanism is provided to fetch an access token as needed.

A security researcher discovered that flawed API configurations are plaguing corporate livestreaming platforms, potentially exposing internal company meetings—and he's releasing a tool to find them.

### Impact OpenBao allows assignment of policies and MFA attribution based upon entity aliases, chosen by the underlying auth method. When using the `username_as_alias=true` parameter in the LDAP auth method, the caller-supplied username is used verbatim without normalization, allowing an attacker to bypass alias-specific MFA requirements. ### Patches OpenBao v2.3.2 will patch this issue. ### Workarounds LDAP methods are only vulnerable if using `username_as_alias=true`. Remove all usage of this parameter and update any entity aliases accordingly. ### References This issue was disclosed to HashiCorp and is the OpenBao equivalent of the following tickets: - https://discuss.hashicorp.com/t/hcsec-2025-20-vault-ldap-mfa-enforcement-bypass-when-using-username-as-alias/76092 - https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-6013

### Impact OpenBao's Login Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) system allows enforcing MFA using Time-based One Time Password (TOTP). Due to normalization applied by the underlying TOTP library, codes were accepted which could contain whitespace; this whitespace could bypass internal rate limiting of the MFA method and allow reuse of existing MFA codes. ### Patches OpenBao v2.3.2 will patch this issue. ### Workarounds Use of rate-limiting quotas can limit an attacker's ability to exploit this: https://openbao.org/api-docs/system/rate-limit-quotas/ ### References This issue was disclosed to HashiCorp and is the OpenBao equivalent of the following tickets: - https://discuss.hashicorp.com/t/hcsec-2025-19-vault-login-mfa-bypass-of-rate-limiting-and-totp-token-reuse/76038 - https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-6015

### Impact OpenBao's TOTP secrets engine could accept valid codes multiple times rather than strictly-once. This was caused by unexpected normalization in the underlying TOTP library. ### Patches OpenBao v2.3.2 will patch this issue. In patching, codes which were not normalized (strictly N numeric digits) will now be rejected. This is a potentially breaking change. ### Workarounds TOTP code verification is a privileged action; only trusted systems should be verifying codes. Ensure that all codes are first normalized before submitting to the OpenBao endpoint. ### References This issue was disclosed to HashiCorp and is the OpenBao equivalent of the following tickets: - https://discuss.hashicorp.com/t/hcsec-2025-17-vault-totp-secrets-engine-code-reuse/76036 - https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-6014
