GHSA-m95p-425x-x889: cggmp21 has a missing check in the ZK proof used in CGGMP21

### Impact cggmp21 concerns a missing check in the ZK proof that enables an attack in which a single malicious signer can reconstruct full private key. ### Patches * `cggmp21 v0.6.3` is a patch release that contains a fix that introduces this specific missing check * However, cggmp21 recommends upgrading to `cggmp24 v0.7.0-alpha.2` which contains many other security checks as a precaution. Follow [migration guideline](https://github.com/LFDT-Lockness/cggmp21/blob/v0.7.0-alpha.2/CGGMP21_MIGRATION.md) to upgrade. ### Workarounds Update to `cggmp21 v0.6.3`, a minor release that contains a minimal security patch. However, for full mitigation, users will need to upgrade to `cggmp24 v0.7.0-alpha.2` as it contains many more security check implementations. ### Resources Read this [blog post](https://www.dfns.co/article/cggmp21-vulnerabilities-patched-and-explained) to learn more.

GHSA-66jq-2c23-2xh5: VictoriaMetrics' Snappy Decoder DoS Vulnerability is Causing OOM

### Impact Affected versions are vulnerable to DoS attacks because the snappy decoder ignored VictoriaMetrics request size limits allowing malformed blocks to trigger excessive memory use. This could lead to OOM errors and service instability. The fix enforces block-size checks based on MaxRequest limits. ### Patches Versions 1.129.1, 1.122.8, 1.110.23 ### Resources - https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/tag/v1.129.1 - https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/tag/v1.122.8 - https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/tag/v1.110.23 ### Note VictoriaMetrics' security model assumes its APIs are properly secured (e.g. via access control flags or a firewall); this advisory addresses malicious input that should not be possible under a [correctly secured](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/single-server-victoriametrics/#security) deployment.

GHSA-xv5p-fjw5-vrj6: Fugue is Vulnerable to Remote Code Execution by Pickle Deserialization via FlaskRPCServer

### Summary The Fugue framework implements an RPC server system for distributed computing operations. In the core functionality of the RPC server implementation, I found that the _decode() function in fugue/rpc/flask.py directly uses cloudpickle.loads() to deserialize data without any sanitization. This creates a remote code execution vulnerability when malicious pickle data is processed by the RPC server.The vulnerability exists in the RPC communication mechanism where the client can send arbitrary serialized Python objects that will be deserialized on the server side, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code on the victim's machine. ### Details _decode() function in fugue/rpc/flask.py directly uses cloudpickle.loads() to deserialize data without any sanitization. ### PoC * Step1: The victim user starts an RPC server binding to open network using the Fugue framework. Here, I use the official RPC server code to initialize the server. * Step2: The attacker modifies the _encode()...

GHSA-w66h-j855-qr72: GeoServer has a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in its WMS GetFeatureInfo HTML format

### Summary A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the WMS GetFeatureInfo HTML output format that enables a remote attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in a victim's browser through specially crafted SLD_BODY parameters. ### Details The WMS service setting that controls HTML auto-escaping is either disabled by default, or completely missing, in the affected versions (see workarounds). ### Impact If an attacker can control a script that is executed in the victim's browser, then they can typically fully compromise that user. Amongst other things, the attacker can: 1. Perform any action within the application that the user can perform. 2. View any information that the user is able to view. 3. Modify any information that the user is able to modify. 4. Initiate interactions with other application users, including malicious attacks, that will appear to originate from the initial victim user. ### Workarounds Changing any of the following WMS service sett...

GHSA-6gxw-85q2-q646: Grype has a credential disclosure vulnerability in its JSON output

A credential disclosure vulnerability was found in Grype, affecting versions `v0.68.0` through `v0.104.0`. If registry credentials are defined and the output of grype is written using the `--file` or `--output json=<file>` option, the registry credentials will be included unsanitized in the output file. ## Impact In Grype versions `v0.68.0` through `v0.104.0`, when registry authentication is configured, those credentials can be incorrectly included in the output of a Grype scan (regardless of whether those credentials are actively being used for the current scan). Users that do not have registry authentication configured are not affected by this issue. Registry credentials can be set via the Grype configuration file (e.g. `registry.auth[].username`, `registry.auth[].password`, `registry.auth[].token`) or environment variables (e.g., `GRYPE_REGISTRY_AUTH_USERNAME`, `GRYPE_REGISTRY_AUTH_PASSWORD`, `GRYPE_REGISTRY_AUTH_TOKEN`). In order for the authentication details to be improperly ...

JackFix Uses Fake Windows Update Pop-Ups on Adult Sites to Deliver Multiple Stealers

Cybersecurity researchers are calling attention to a new campaign that's leveraging a combination of ClickFix lures and fake adult websites to deceive users into running malicious commands under the guise of a "critical" Windows security update. "Campaign leverages fake adult websites (xHamster, PornHub clones) as its phishing mechanism, likely distributed via malvertising," Acronis said in a
