Denial of Service vulnerability in Apache Struts, file leak in multipart request processing causes disk exhaustion. This issue affects Apache Struts: from 2.0.0 through 6.7.4, from 7.0.0 through 7.0.3. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.8.0 or 7.1.1, which fixes the issue.

Microsoft closed out 2025 with patches for 56 security flaws in various products across the Windows platform, including one vulnerability that has been actively exploited in the wild. Of the 56 flaws, three are rated Critical, and 53 are rated Important in severity. Two other defects are listed as publicly known at the time of the release. These include 29 privilege escalation, 18 remote code

Portugal updates its cybercrime law (Decree Law 125/2025) to grant ethical hackers a 'safe harbour' from prosecution. Learn the strict rules researchers must follow, including immediate disclosure to the CNCS, and how other nations are following this trend.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to gather information specific to the environment and take additional actions prior to exploitation to prepare the target environment.

**According to the CVSS metric, a successful exploitation could lead to a scope change (S:C). What does this mean for this vulnerability?** In this case, a successful attack could be performed from a low privilege Hyper-V guest. The attacker could traverse the guest's security boundary to cause denial of service on the Hyper-V host environment.

The matrix-sdk-base crate is unable to handle responses that include custom m.room.join_rules values due to a serialization bug. This can be exploited to cause a denial-of-service condition, if a user is invited to a room with non-standard join rules, the crate's sync process will stall, preventing further processing for all rooms. ### Patches The issue is fixed in matrix-sdk-base 0.16.0. ### Workarounds Users can leave affected rooms on another client to mitigate the issue. ### References The issue was fixed in https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-rust-sdk/pull/5924.

Incorrect access control in the Identity Provider service of usememos memos v0.25.2 allows attackers with low-level privileges to arbitrarily modify or delete registered identity providers, leading to an account takeover or Denial of Service (DoS).

## Summary Critical security vulnerabilities exist in both the `UUIDv4()` and `UUID()` functions of the `github.com/gofiber/utils` package. When the system's cryptographic random number generator (`crypto/rand`) fails, both functions silently fall back to returning predictable UUID values, including the zero UUID `"00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"`. This compromises the security of all Fiber applications using these functions for security-critical operations. **Both functions are vulnerable to the same root cause (`crypto/rand` failure):** - `UUIDv4()`: Indirect vulnerability through `uuid.NewRandom()` → `crypto/rand.Read()` → fallback to `UUID()` - `UUID()`: Direct vulnerability through `crypto/rand.Read(uuidSeed[:])` → silent zero UUID return ## Vulnerability Details ### Affected Functions - **Package**: `github.com/gofiber/utils` - **Functions**: `UUIDv4()` and `UUID()` - **Return Type**: `string` (both functions) - **Locations**: `common.go:93-99` (UUIDv4), `common.go:60-8...
