A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability was found in the 'oob' OAuth endpoint due to incorrect null-byte handling. This issue allows a malicious link to insert an arbitrary URI into a Keycloak error page. This flaw requires a user or administrator to interact with a link in order to be vulnerable. This may compromise user details, allowing it to be changed or collected by an attacker.
snappy-java is a Java port of the snappy, a fast C++ compresser/decompresser developed by Google. The SnappyInputStream was found to be vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) attacks when decompressing data with a too large chunk size. Due to missing upper bound check on chunk length, an unrecoverable fatal error can occur. All versions of snappy-java including the latest released version 1.1.10.3 are vulnerable to this issue. A fix has been introduced in commit `9f8c3cf74` which will be included in the 1.1.10.4 release. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade should only accept compressed data from trusted sources.
### Summary snappy-java is a data compression library in Java. Its SnappyInputStream was found to be vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) attacks when decompressing data with a too-large chunk size. Due to missing upper bound check on chunk length, an unrecoverable fatal error can occur. ### Scope All versions of snappy-java including the latest released version 1.1.10.3. A fix is applied in 1.1.10.4 ### Details While performing mitigation efforts related to [CVE-2023-34455](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-34455) in Confluent products, our Application Security team closely analyzed the fix that was accepted and merged into snappy-java version 1.1.10.1 in [this](https://github.com/xerial/snappy-java/commit/3bf67857fcf70d9eea56eed4af7c925671e8eaea) commit.

### Summary Parsing malformed markdown input with parser that uses parser.Mmark extension could result in out-of-bounds read vulnerability. ### Details To exploit the vulnerability, parser needs to have parser.Mmark extension set. The panic occurs inside the `citation.go` file on the line 69 when the parser tries to access the element past its length. https://github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/blob/7478c230c7cd3e7328803d89abe591d0b61c41e4/parser/citation.go#L69 ### PoC ```go package main import ( "github.com/gomarkdown/markdown" "github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/parser" ) func main() { ext := parser.CommonExtensions | parser.Attributes | parser.OrderedListStart | parser.SuperSubscript | parser.Mmark p := parser.NewWithExtensions(ext) inp := []byte("[@]") markdown.ToHTML(inp, p, nil) } ``` ```bash $ go run main.go panic: runtime error: index out of range [1] with length 1 goroutine 1 [running]: github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/parser.citation(0x10?, {0x1400000e3f0, 0x14000...
