The road to quantum-safe cryptography in Red Hat OpenShift

To understand Red Hat OpenShift's journey to quantum-safe cryptography, it helps to look at the current and planned post-quantum cryptography support in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). This is because OpenShift includes Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS), which provides several important cryptographic libraries. Bringing post-quantum cryptography to OpenShift is not a one-line configuration, of course. It's an architectural transition.There are three main areas of focus when considering post-quantum cryptography for OpenShift: RHCOS kernelsOpenShift Core userspaceGo versions used by the

About Remote Code Execution – 7-Zip (BDU:2025-01793) vulnerability

About Remote Code Execution – 7-Zip (BDU:2025-01793) vulnerability. It’s about the fact that files unpacked using 7-Zip don’t get the Mark-of-the-Web. As a result, Windows security mechanisms don’t block the execution of the unpacked malware. If you remember, there was a similar vulnerability in January – CVE-2025-0411. The problem was with running files from the […]

KrebsOnSecurity Hit With Near-Record 6.3 Tbps DDoS

KrebsOnSecurity last week was hit by a near record distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack that clocked in at more than 6.3 terabits of data per second (a terabit is one trillion bits of data). The brief attack appears to have been a test run for a massive new Internet of Things (IoT) botnet capable of launching crippling digital assaults that few web destinations can withstand. Read on for more about the botnet, the attack, and the apparent creator of this global menace.

GHSA-744g-7qm9-hjh9: The TYPO3 CMS Backend has Broken Authentication in Backend MFA

### Problem The multifactor authentication (MFA) dialog presented during backend login can be bypassed due to insufficient enforcement of access restrictions on all backend routes. Successful exploitation requires valid backend user credentials, as MFA can only be bypassed after successful authentication. ### Solution Update to TYPO3 versions 12.4.31 LTS, 13.4.12 LTS that fix the problem described. ### Credits Thanks to Jens Jacobsen and Y. Kahveci for reporting this issue, and to TYPO3 security team member Torben Hansen for fixing it.

GHSA-6frx-j292-c844: TYPO3 Allows Privilege Escalation to System Maintainer

### Problem Administrator-level backend users without system maintainer privileges can escalate their privileges and gain system maintainer access. Exploiting this vulnerability requires a valid administrator account. ### Solution Update to TYPO3 versions 10.4.50 ELTS, 11.5.44 ELTS, 12.4.31 LTS, 13.4.12 LTS that fix the problem described. ### Credits Thanks to Alexander Künzl for reporting this issue, and to TYPO3 core & security team member Oliver Hader for fixing it.

GHSA-3jrg-97f3-rqh9: TYPO3 Unverified Password Change for Backend Users

### Problem The backend user management interface allows password changes without requiring the current password. When an administrator updates their own account or modifies other user accounts via the admin interface, the current password is not requested for verification. This behavior may lower the protection against unauthorized access in scenarios where an admin session is hijacked or left unattended, as it enables password changes without additional authentication. ### Solution Update to TYPO3 versions 9.5.51 ELTS, 10.4.50 ELTS, 11.5.44 ELTS, 12.4.31 LTS, 13.4.12 LTS that fix the problem described. > [!NOTE] > In these versions, administrators are required to verify their identity through step-up authentication (also known as sudo mode) when changing backend user passwords. ### Credits Thanks to the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) of Switzerland for reporting this issue, and to TYPO3 core & security team member Benjamin Franzke for fixing it.

GHSA-x8pv-fgxp-8v3x: TYPO3 Allows Information Disclosure via DBAL Restriction Handling

### Problem When performing a database query involving multiple tables through the database abstraction layer (DBAL), frontend user permissions are only applied via `FrontendGroupRestriction` to the last table. As a result, data from additional tables included in the same query may be unintentionally exposed to unauthorized users. ### Solution Update to TYPO3 versions 9.5.51 ELTS, 10.4.50 ELTS, 11.5.44 ELTS, 12.4.31 LTS, 13.4.12 LTS that fix the problem described. ### Credits Thanks to Christian Futterlieb for reporting this issue, and to TYPO3 security team member Elias Häußler for fixing it.

GHSA-22c2-9gwg-mj59: Langroid has a Code Injection vulnerability in LanceDocChatAgent through vector_store

### Summary [LanceDocChatAgent](https://github.com/langroid/langroid/blob/main/langroid/agent/special/lance_doc_chat_agent.py#L158) uses pandas eval() through `compute_from_docs()`: https://github.com/langroid/langroid/blob/18667ec7e971efc242505196f6518eb19a0abc1c/langroid/vector_store/base.py#L136-L150 As a result, an attacker may be able to make the agent run malicious commands through [QueryPlan.dataframe_calc](https://github.com/langroid/langroid/blob/main/langroid/agent/special/lance_tools.py#L16) compromising the host system. ### Fix Langroid 0.53.15 sanitizes input to the affected function by default to tackle the most common attack vectors, and added several warnings about the risky behavior in the project documentation.
