Marked prior to version 0.3.17 is vulnerable to a Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) attack due to catastrophic backtracking in several regular expressions used for parsing HTML tags and markdown links. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by providing specially crafted markdown input, such as deeply nested or repetitively structured brackets or tag attributes, which cause the parser to hang and lead to a Denial of Service.
A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the mstp.ko kernel module, responsible for processing BACnet MS/TP frames over serial (RS485). The SendFrame() function writes directly into a statically sized kernel buffer (alloc_entry(0x1f5)) without validating the length of attacker-controlled data (param_5). If an MS/TP frame contains a crafted payload exceeding 492 bytes, the function performs out-of-bounds writes beyond the allocated 501-byte buffer, corrupting kernel memory. This flaw allows local or physically connected attackers to trigger denial-of-service or achieve remote code execution in kernel space. Tested against version 3.08.03 with a custom BACnet frame over /dev/ttyS0.
### Summary When using the `fiber.Ctx.BodyParser` to parse into a struct with range values, a panic occurs when trying to parse a negative range index ### Details `fiber.Ctx.BodyParser` can map flat data to nested slices using `key[idx]value` syntax, however when idx is negative, it causes a panic instead of returning an error stating it cannot process the data. Since this data is user-provided, this could lead to denial of service for anyone relying on this `fiber.Ctx.BodyParser` functionality ### Reproducing Take a simple GoFiberV2 server which returns a JSON encoded version of the FormData ```go package main import ( "encoding/json" "fmt" "net/http" "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2" ) type RequestBody struct { NestedContent []*struct { Value string `form:"value"` } `form:"nested-content"` } func main() { app := fiber.New() app.Post("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error { formData := RequestBody{} if err := c.BodyParser(&formData); err != nil { fmt.Println(err) re...
A new US indictment against a group of Russian nationals offers a clear example of how, authorities say, a single malware operation can enable both criminal and state-sponsored hacking.
Hazel observes that cybercriminals often fumble teamwork, with fragile alliances crumbling over missed messages. Plus, how UAT-6382 is exploiting Cityworks and what you can do to stay secure.
In Eclipse JGit versions 7.2.0.202503040940-r and older, the ManifestParser class used by the repo command and the AmazonS3 class used to implement the experimental amazons3 git transport protocol allowing to store git pack files in an Amazon S3 bucket, are vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) attacks when parsing XML files. This vulnerability can lead to information disclosure, denial of service, and other security issues.
# Impact A bug was found in the containerd's CRI implementation where containerd doesn't put usernamespaced containers under the Kubernetes' cgroup hierarchy, therefore some Kubernetes limits are not honored. This may cause a denial of service of the Kubernetes node. # Patches This bug has been fixed in containerd 2.0.5+ and 2.1.0+. Users should update to these versions to resolve the issue. # Workarounds Disable usernamespaced pods in Kubernetes temporarily. # Credits The containerd project would like to thank Rodrigo Campos Catelin and Piotr Rogowski for responsibly disclosing this issue in accordance with the [containerd security policy](https://github.com/containerd/project/blob/main/SECURITY.md). # For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in [containerd](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/issues/new/choose) * Email us at security@containerd.io To report a security issue in containerd: * [Report a new vulnerabi...
KrebsOnSecurity hit and survided a record-breaking 6.3 Tbps DDoS attack linked to the Aisuru IoT botnet, but it shows the vulnerable state of IoT devices.
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.
