Researchers found a set of vulnerabilities that puts all devices leveraging Apple's AirPlay at risk.

For years, North Korea has been secretly placing young IT workers inside Western companies. With AI, their schemes are now more devious—and effective—than ever.

April Linux Patch Wednesday. Total vulnerabilities: 251. 👌 164 in the Linux Kernel. No vulnerabilities show signs of being exploited in the wild. There are 7 vulnerabilities that appear to have publicly available exploits. For 2 vulnerabilities, exploit code with detailed explanation is available on GitHub. Both were first patched in RedOS packages: 🔸 SQL […]

### Impact This issue allows an attacker who has compromised either the Elastic service or the extender plugin to cause denial of service of the scheduler. This is a privilege escalation, because Volcano users may run their Elastic service and extender plugins in separate pods or nodes from the scheduler. In the Kubernetes security model, node isolation is a security boundary, and as such an attacker is able to cross that boundary in Volcano's case if they have compromised either the vulnerable services or the pod/node in which they are deployed. The scheduler will become unavailable to other users and workloads in the cluster. The scheduler will either crash with an unrecoverable OOM panic or freeze while consuming excessive amounts of memory. ### Workarounds No

About Elevation of Privilege – Windows Process Activation (CVE-2025-21204) vulnerability. This vulnerability from the April Microsoft Patch Tuesday was not highlighted by VM vendors in their reviews. It affects the Windows Update Stack component and is related to improper link resolution before file access (CWE-59). 🔻 On April 14, researcher Elli Shlomo (CYBERDOM) published a […]

### Summary A critical performance vulnerability has been identified in the input preprocessing logic of the multimodal tokenizer. The code dynamically replaces placeholder tokens (e.g., <|audio_*|>, <|image_*|>) with repeated tokens based on precomputed lengths. Due to ​​inefficient list concatenation operations​​, the algorithm exhibits ​​quadratic time complexity (O(n²))​​, allowing malicious actors to trigger resource exhaustion via specially crafted inputs. ### Details ​​Affected Component​​: input_processor_for_phi4mm function. https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/blob/8cac35ba435906fb7eb07e44fe1a8c26e8744f4e/vllm/model_executor/models/phi4mm.py#L1182-L1197 The code modifies the input_ids list in-place using input_ids = input_ids[:i] + tokens + input_ids[i+1:]. Each concatenation operation copies the entire list, leading to O(n) operations per replacement. For k placeholders expanding to m tokens, total time becomes O(kmn), approximating O(n²) in worst-case scenarios. ### PoC ...

### Impact In a multi-node vLLM deployment, vLLM uses ZeroMQ for some multi-node communication purposes. The primary vLLM host opens an `XPUB` ZeroMQ socket and binds it to ALL interfaces. While the socket is always opened for a multi-node deployment, it is only used when doing tensor parallelism across multiple hosts. Any client with network access to this host can connect to this `XPUB` socket unless its port is blocked by a firewall. Once connected, these arbitrary clients will receive all of the same data broadcasted to all of the secondary vLLM hosts. This data is internal vLLM state information that is not useful to an attacker. By potentially connecting to this socket many times and not reading data published to them, an attacker can also cause a denial of service by slowing down or potentially blocking the publisher. ### Detailed Analysis The `XPUB` socket in question is created here: https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/blob/c21b99b91241409c2fdf9f3f8c542e8748b317be/vllm/d...

### Summary The request to commence a site backup can be performed without authentication. Then these backups can also be downloaded without authentication. The archives are created with a predictable filename, so a malicious user could create an archive and then download the archive without being authenticated. ### Details Create an installation using the instructions found in the docker folder of the repository, setup the site, and then send the request to create an archive, which you do not need to be authenticated for: ``` POST /?api/archives HTTP/1.1 Host: localhost:8085 action=startArchive&params%5Bsavefiles%5D=true&params%5Bsavedatabase%5D=true&callAsync=true ``` Then to retrieve it, make a simple `GET` request like to the correct URL: ``` http://localhost:8085/?api/archives/2025-04-12T14-34-01_archive.zip ``` A malicious attacker could simply fuzz this filename. ### PoC Here is a python script to fuzz this: ``` #!/usr/bin/env python3 import requests import argpars...

A Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability was identified in the huggingface/transformers library, specifically in the file `tokenization_gpt_neox_japanese.py` of the GPT-NeoX-Japanese model. The vulnerability occurs in the SubWordJapaneseTokenizer class, where regular expressions process specially crafted inputs. The issue stems from a regex exhibiting exponential complexity under certain conditions, leading to excessive backtracking. This can result in high CPU usage and potential application downtime, effectively creating a Denial of Service (DoS) scenario. The affected version is v4.48.1 (latest).
