GitHub Desktop Vulnerability Risks Credential Leaks via Malicious Remote URLs

Multiple security vulnerabilities have been disclosed in GitHub Desktop as well as other Git-related projects that, if successfully exploited, could permit an attacker to gain unauthorized access to a user's Git credentials. "Git implements a protocol called Git Credential Protocol to retrieve credentials from the credential helper," GMO Flatt Security researcher Ry0taK, who discovered the flaws

GHSA-gvvw-rr8m-fj76: uniapi version 1.0.7 contained an information harvesting script.

uniapi version 1.0.7 introduces code that would execute on import of the module and download a script from a remote URL, and would then execute the downloaded script in a thread. The downloaded script would harvest system information and `POST` the information to another remote URL. This code was found in the PyPI release artifacts and was not present in the public GitHub repository.

GHSA-4gf7-ff8x-hq99: Opening a malicious website while running a Nuxt dev server could allow read-only access to code

### Summary Source code may be stolen during dev when using webpack / rspack builder and you open a malicious web site. ### Details Because the request for classic script by a script tag is not subject to same origin policy, an attacker can inject `<script src="http://localhost:3000/_nuxt/app.js">` in their site and run the script. By using `Function::toString` against the values in `window.webpackChunknuxt_app`, the attacker can get the source code. ### PoC 1. Create a nuxt project with webpack / rspack builder. 1. Run `npm run dev` 1. Open `http://localhost:3000` 1. Run the script below in a web site that has a different origin. 1. You can see the source code output in the document and the devtools console. ```js const script = document.createElement('script') script.src = 'http://localhost:3000/_nuxt/app.js' script.addEventListener('load', () => { for (const page in window.webpackChunknuxt_app) { const moduleList = window.webpackChunknuxt_app[page][1] console.log(module...

GHSA-2452-6xj8-jh47: Opening a malicious website while running a Nuxt dev server could allow read-only access to code

### Summary Nuxt allows any websites to send any requests to the development server and read the response due to default CORS settings. ### Details While Vite patched the default CORS settings to fix https://github.com/vitejs/vite/security/advisories/GHSA-vg6x-rcgg-rjx6, nuxt uses its own CORS handler by default (https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt/pull/23995). https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt/blob/7d345c71462d90187fd09c96c7692f306c90def5/packages/vite/src/client.ts#L257-L263 That CORS handler sets `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *`. > [!IMPORTANT] > If on an affected version, it may be possible to opt-out of the default Nuxt CORS handler by configuring `vite.server.cors`. ### PoC 1. Start a dev server in any nuxt project using Vite by `nuxt dev`. 2. Send a fetch request to `http://localhost:3000/_nuxt/app.vue` (`fetch('http://localhost:3000/_nuxt/app.vue')`) from a different origin page. ### Impact Users with the default server.cors option using Vite builder may get the source code stolen ...

GHSA-68r2-fwcg-qpm8: Apache Solr vulnerable to Execution with Unnecessary Privileges

Core creation allows users to replace "trusted" configset files with arbitrary configuration Solr instances that (1) use the "FileSystemConfigSetService" component (the default in "standalone" or "user-managed" mode), and (2) are running without authentication and authorization are vulnerable to a sort of privilege escalation wherein individual "trusted" configset files can be ignored in favor of potentially-untrusted replacements available elsewhere on the filesystem.  These replacement config files are treated as "trusted" and can use "<lib>" tags to add to Solr's classpath, which an attacker might use to load malicious code as a searchComponent or other plugin. This issue affects all Apache Solr versions up through Solr 9.7.  Users can protect against the vulnerability by enabling authentication and authorization on their Solr clusters or switching to SolrCloud (and away from "FileSystemConfigSetService").  Users are also recommended to upgrade to Solr 9.8.0, which mitigates this ...
