New Win-DDoS Flaws Let Attackers Turn Public Domain Controllers into DDoS Botnet via RPC, LDAP

A novel attack technique could be weaponized to rope thousands of public domain controllers (DCs) around the world to create a malicious botnet and use it to conduct power distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. The approach has been codenamed Win-DDoS by SafeBreach researchers Or Yair and Shahak Morag, who presented their findings at the DEF CON 33 security conference today. "As we

KrebsOnSecurity in New ‘Most Wanted’ HBO Max Series

A new documentary series about cybercrime airing next month on HBO Max features interviews with Yours Truly. The four-part series follows the exploits of Julius Kivimäki, a prolific Finnish hacker recently convicted of leaking tens of thousands of patient records from an online psychotherapy practice while attempting to extort the clinic and its patients.

GHSA-vh9x-phq6-fx54: Duplicate Advisory: Denial of service via malicious preflight requests in github.com/rs/cors

### Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-mh55-gqvf-xfwm. This link is maintained to preserve external references. ### Original Description Middleware causes a prohibitive amount of heap allocations when processing malicious preflight requests that include a Access-Control-Request-Headers (ACRH) header whose value contains many commas. This behavior can be abused by attackers to produce undue load on the middleware/server as an attempt to cause a denial of service.

GHSA-9356-575x-2w9m: Hugging Face Transformers Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability

A Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability exists in the Hugging Face Transformers library, specifically in the `convert_tf_weight_name_to_pt_weight_name()` function. This function, responsible for converting TensorFlow weight names to PyTorch format, uses a regex pattern `/[^/]*___([^/]*)/` that can be exploited to cause excessive CPU consumption through crafted input strings due to catastrophic backtracking. The vulnerability affects versions up to 4.51.3 and is fixed in version 4.53.0. This issue can lead to service disruption, resource exhaustion, and potential API service vulnerabilities, impacting model conversion processes between TensorFlow and PyTorch formats.

GHSA-jxhh-4648-vpp3: FPDI allows Memory Exhaustion (OOM) in PDF Parser which leads to Denial of Service

### Impact This is a significant Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability. Any application that uses FPDI to process user-supplied PDF files is at risk. An attacker can upload a small, malicious PDF file that will cause the server-side script to crash due to memory exhaustion. Repeated attacks can lead to sustained service unavailability. ### Patches Fixed as of version 2.6.4 ### Workarounds No.

GHSA-qx2q-88mx-vhg7: Fiber Crashes in BodyParser Due to Unvalidated Large Slice Index in Decoder

### Description When using Fiber's `Ctx.BodyParser` to parse form data containing a large numeric key that represents a slice index (e.g., `test.18446744073704`), the application crashes due to an out-of-bounds slice allocation in the underlying schema decoder. The root cause is that the decoder attempts to allocate a slice of length `idx + 1` without validating whether the index is within a safe or reasonable range. If `idx` is excessively large, this leads to an integer overflow or memory exhaustion, causing a panic or crash. ### Steps to Reproduce Create a POST request handler that accepts `x-www-form-urlencoded` data ```go package main import ( "fmt" "net/http" "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2" ) type RequestBody struct { NestedContent []*struct{} `form:"test"` } func main() { app := fiber.New() app.Post("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error { formData := RequestBody{} if err := c.BodyParser(&formData); err != nil { fmt.Println(err) return c.SendStatus(http.StatusUnp...
