Google on Monday released monthly security updates for the Android operating system, including two vulnerabilities that it said have been exploited in the wild. The patch addresses a total of 107 security flaws spanning different components, including Framework, System, Kernel, as well as those from Arm, Imagination Technologies, MediaTek, Qualcomm, and Unison. The two high-severity shortcomings

**Endpoint**: `admin/config/system` **Submenu**: `Languages` **Parameter**: `Supported` **Application**: Grav v 1.7.48 --- ## Summary A Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability was identified in the **"Languages"** submenu of the Grav **admin configuration panel** (`/admin/config/system`). Specifically, the `Supported` parameter fails to properly validate user input. If a malformed value is inserted—such as a single forward slash (`/`) or an XSS test string—it causes a fatal regular expression parsing error on the server. This leads to application-wide failure due to the use of the `preg_match()` function with an **improperly constructed regular expression**, resulting in the following error: `preg_match(): Unknown modifier 'o' File: /system/src/Grav/Common/Language/Language.php line 244` Once triggered, the site becomes completely unavailable to all users. --- ## Details - **Vulnerable Endpoint**: `POST /admin/config/system` - **Submenu**: `Languages` - **Paramet...

# DOS on the admin panel **Severity Rating:** Medium **Vector:** Denial Of Service **CVE:** XXX **CWE:** 400 - Uncontrolled Resource Consumption **CVSS Score:** 4.9 **CVSS Vector:** CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H ## Analysis A Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability has been identified in the application related to the handling of `scheduled_at` parameters. Specifically, the application fails to properly sanitize input for cron expressions. By manipulating the `scheduled_at` parameter with a malicious input, such as a single quote, the application admin panel becomes non-functional, causing significant disruptions to administrative operations. The only way to recover from this issue is to manually access the host server and modify the `backup.yaml` file to correct the corrupted cron expression ## Proof of Concept 1) Change the value of `scheduled_at` parameter to `'` as shown in the following figures at the `http://127.0.0.1/admin/tools` endpoint, and observe the...

## Summary The `fonttools varLib` (or `python3 -m fontTools.varLib`) script has an arbitrary file write vulnerability that leads to remote code execution when a malicious .designspace file is processed. The vulnerability affects the `main()` code path of `fontTools.varLib`, used by the fonttools varLib CLI and any code that invokes `fontTools.varLib.main()`. The vulnerability exists due to unsanitised filename handling combined with content injection. Attackers can write files to arbitrary filesystem locations via path traversal sequences, and inject malicious code (like PHP) into the output files through XML injection in labelname elements. When these files are placed in web-accessible locations and executed, this achieves remote code execution without requiring any elevated privileges. Once RCE is obtained, attackers can further escalate privileges to compromise system files (like overwriting `/etc/passwd`). Overall this allows attackers to: - Write font files to arbitrary locatio...

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has updated its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog to include a security flaw impacting OpenPLC ScadaBR, citing evidence of active exploitation. The vulnerability in question is CVE-2021-26829 (CVSS score: 5.4), a cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw that affects Windows and Linux versions of the software via

### Summary An Uncontrolled Recursion (CWE-674) vulnerability in node-forge versions 1.3.1 and below enables remote, unauthenticated attackers to craft deep ASN.1 structures that trigger unbounded recursive parsing. This leads to a Denial-of-Service (DoS) via stack exhaustion when parsing untrusted DER inputs. ### Details An ASN.1 Denial of Service (Dos) vulnerability exists in the node-forge `asn1.fromDer` function within `forge/lib/asn1.js`. The ASN.1 DER parser implementation (`_fromDer`) recurses for every constructed ASN.1 value (SEQUENCE, SET, etc.) and lacks a guard limiting recursion depth. An attacker can craft a small DER blob containing a very large nesting depth of constructed TLVs which causes the Node.js V8 engine to exhaust its call stack and throw `RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded`, crashing or incapacitating the process handling the parse. This is a remote, low-cost Denial-of-Service against applications that parse untrusted ASN.1 objects. ### Impact T...

### Summary The `EMOJI_REGEX` used in the `emoji` action is vulnerable to a Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) attack. A short, maliciously crafted string (e.g., <100 characters) can cause the regex engine to consume excessive CPU time (minutes), leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) for the application. ### Details The ReDoS vulnerability stems from "catastrophic backtracking" in the `EMOJI_REGEX`. This is caused by ambiguity in the regex pattern due to overlapping character classes. Specifically, the class `\p{Emoji_Presentation}` overlaps with more specific classes used in the same alternation, such as `[\u{1F1E6}-\u{1F1FF}]` (regional indicator symbols used for flags) and `\p{Emoji_Modifier_Base}`. When the regex engine attempts to match a string that almost matches but ultimately fails (like the one in the PoC), this ambiguity forces it to explore an exponential number of possible paths. The matching time increases exponentially with the length of the crafted input, ...

Cisco Talos’ Vulnerability Discovery & Research team recently disclosed five vulnerabilities in Dell ControlVault 3 firmware and its associated Windows software, four vulnerabilities in Entr'ouvert Lasso, and one vulnerability in GL.iNet Slate AX. The vulnerabilities mentioned in this blog post have been patched by their respective

A vulnerability in OpenSearch allows attackers to cause Denial of Service (DoS) by submitting complex query_string inputs. This issue affects all OpenSearch versions below 3.2.0.

### Summary The Fugue framework implements an RPC server system for distributed computing operations. In the core functionality of the RPC server implementation, I found that the _decode() function in fugue/rpc/flask.py directly uses cloudpickle.loads() to deserialize data without any sanitization. This creates a remote code execution vulnerability when malicious pickle data is processed by the RPC server.The vulnerability exists in the RPC communication mechanism where the client can send arbitrary serialized Python objects that will be deserialized on the server side, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code on the victim's machine. ### Details _decode() function in fugue/rpc/flask.py directly uses cloudpickle.loads() to deserialize data without any sanitization. ### PoC * Step1: The victim user starts an RPC server binding to open network using the Fugue framework. Here, I use the official RPC server code to initialize the server. * Step2: The attacker modifies the _encode()...
