Cisco Talos observed the ongoing global spread of the XorDDoS malware, predominantly targeting the United States, with evidence suggesting Chinese-speaking operators are using sophisticated tools to orchestrate widespread attacks.

A critical security vulnerability has been disclosed in the Erlang/Open Telecom Platform (OTP) SSH implementation that could permit an attacker to execute arbitrary code sans any authentication under certain conditions. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-32433, has been given the maximum CVSS score of 10.0. "The vulnerability allows an attacker with network access to an Erlang/OTP SSH

In PEAR HTTP_Request2 before 2.7.0, multiple files in the tests directory, notably tests/_network/getparameters.php and tests/_network/postparameters.php, reflect any GET or POST parameters, leading to XSS.

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in PyTorch 2.6.0. Affected is the function torch.nn.functional.ctc_loss of the file aten/src/ATen/native/LossCTC.cpp. The manipulation leads to denial of service. An attack has to be approached locally. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The name of the patch is 46fc5d8e360127361211cb237d5f9eef0223e567. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue.

The tokenizer incorrectly interprets tags with unquoted attribute values that end with a solidus character (/) as self-closing. When directly using Tokenizer, this can result in such tags incorrectly being marked as self-closing, and when using the Parse functions, this can result in content following such tags as being placed in the wrong scope during DOM construction, but only when tags are in foreign content (e.g. <math>, <svg>, etc contexts).

An issue in the component /models/config.py of Whoogle search v0.9.0 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via supplying a crafted search query.

Mattermost versions 10.5.x <= 10.5.1, 10.4.x <= 10.4.3, 9.11.x <= 9.11.9 fail to properly enforce the 'Allow users to view/update archived channels' System Console setting, which allows authenticated users to view members and member information of archived channels even when this setting is disabled.
