Government staffing cuts and instability, including this year’s prolonged shutdown, could be hindering US digital defense and creating vulnerabilities.

Lawmakers enforced age checks, websites blocked entire countries, and users turned to VPNs to get around them.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) on Tuesday removed three individuals linked to the Intellexa Consortium, the holding company behind a commercial spyware known as Predator, from the specially designated nationals list. The names of the individuals are as follows - Merom Harpaz Andrea Nicola Constantino Hermes Gambazzi Sara Aleksandra Fayssal Hamou

### Impact **Vulnerability Type:** Local Privilege Escalation (LPE) / Arbitrary Code Execution. The application loads custom Python rules and configuration files from user-writable locations (e.g., `~/.config/theshit/`) without validating ownership or permissions when executed with elevated privileges. If the tool is invoked with `sudo` or otherwise runs with an effective UID of root, it continues to trust configuration files originating from the unprivileged user's environment. This allows a local attacker to inject arbitrary Python code via a malicious rule or configuration file, which is then executed with root privileges. **Who is impacted:** Any system where this tool is executed with elevated privileges is affected. In environments where the tool is permitted to run via `sudo` without a password (`NOPASSWD`), a local unprivileged user can escalate privileges to root without additional interaction. ### Patches The issue has been fixed in version **0.1.1**. The patch introdu...

### Summary Magick fails to check for circular references between two MVGs, leading to a stack overflow. ### Details After reading mvg1 using Magick, the following is displayed: ``` ./magick -limit memory 2GiB -limit map 2GiB -limit disk 0 mvg:L1.mvg out.png AddressSanitizer:DEADLYSIGNAL ================================================================= ==3564123==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: UNKNOWN SIGNAL on unknown address 0x000000000000 (pc 0x5589549a4458 bp 0x7ffcc61f34a0 sp 0x7ffcc61efdd0 T0) #0 0x5589549a4458 in GetImagePixelCache MagickCore/cache.c:1726 #1 0x5589549b02c1 in QueueAuthenticPixelCacheNexus MagickCore/cache.c:4261 #2 0x5589549a2f24 in GetAuthenticPixelCacheNexus MagickCore/cache.c:1368 #3 0x5589549bae98 in GetCacheViewAuthenticPixels MagickCore/cache-view.c:311 #4 0x558954afb3a5 in DrawPolygonPrimitive._omp_fn.1 MagickCore/draw.c:5172 #5 0x7f62dd89fa15 in GOMP_parallel (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgomp.so.1+0x14a15) #6 0x558954ae0f41 in DrawPo...

## Vulnerability Overview ### Description RustFS implements gRPC authentication using a hardcoded static token `"rustfs rpc"` that is: 1. **Publicly exposed** in the source code repository 2. **Hardcoded** on both client and server sides 3. **Non-configurable** with no mechanism for token rotation 4. **Universally valid** across all RustFS deployments Any attacker with network access to the gRPC port can authenticate using this publicly known token and execute privileged operations including data destruction, policy manipulation, and cluster configuration changes. --- ## Vulnerable Code Analysis ### Server-Side Authentication (rustfs/src/server/http.rs:679-686) ```rust #[allow(clippy::result_large_err)] fn check_auth(req: Request<()>) -> std::result::Result<Request<()>, Status> { let token: MetadataValue<_> = "rustfs rpc".parse().unwrap(); // ⚠️ HARDCODED! match req.metadata().get("authorization") { Some(t) if token == t => Ok(req), _ => Err(Status::una...

When system.enableCrossNamespaceCommands is enabled (on by default), the Temporal server permits certain workflow task commands (e.g. StartChildWorkflowExecution, SignalExternalWorkflowExecution, RequestCancelExternalWorkflowExecution) to target a different namespace than the namespace authorized at the gRPC boundary. The frontend authorizes RespondWorkflowTaskCompleted based on the outer request namespace, but the history service later resolves and executes the command using the namespace embedded in command attributes without authorizing the caller for that target namespace. This can allow a worker authorized for one namespace to create, signal, or cancel workflows in another namespace. This issue affects Temporal: through 1.29.1. Fixed in 1.27.4, 1.28.2, 1.29.2.

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the product file upload functionality. Authenticated users can upload crafted XML files containing executable JavaScript. These files are later rendered by the application without sufficient sanitization or content-type enforcement, allowing arbitrary JavaScript execution when the file is accessed. Because product files uploaded by regular users are visible to administrative users, this vulnerability can be leveraged to execute malicious JavaScript in an administrator’s browser session.

### Summary A Zip Slip vulnerability in PsiTransfer allows an unauthenticated attacker to upload files with path traversal sequences in the filename (e.g. `../../../.ssh/authorized_keys`). When a victim downloads the bucket as a **.tar.gz** archive and extracts it, malicious files are written outside the intended directory, potentially leading to RCE. ### Details The vulnerability exists in the archive download functionality in **lib/endpoints.js** where user controlled metadata.name is used directly without sanitization when creating TAR archive entries. ``` lib/endpoints.js:275 const entry = pack.entry({ name: info.metadata.name, size: info.size }); ``` ``` lib/endpoints.js:372 assert(meta.name, 'tus meta prop missing: name'); ``` ### PoC I. Upload file with malicious filename (no authentication required). ``` MALICIOUS_NAME=$(echo -n "../../../tmp/dp.txt" | base64) SID=$(echo -n "evil" | base64) RETENTION=$(echo -n "3600" | base64) curl -X POST http://TARGET:3000/files \ ...

A NestJS application is vulnerable if it meets all of the following criteria: 1. Platform: Uses `@nestjs/platform-fastify`. 2. Security Mechanism: Relies on `NestMiddleware` (via `MiddlewareConsumer`) for security checks (authentication, authorization, etc.), or through `app.use()` 3. Routing: Applies middleware to specific routes using string paths or controllers (e.g., `.forRoutes('admin')`). Example Vulnerable Config: ```ts // app.module.ts export class AppModule implements NestModule { configure(consumer: MiddlewareConsumer) { consumer .apply(AuthMiddleware) // Security check .forRoutes('admin'); // Vulnerable: Path-based restriction } } ``` Attack Vector: - Target Route: `/admin` - Middleware Path: `admin` - Attack Request: `GET /%61dmin` - Result: Middleware is skipped (no match on `%61dmin`), but controller for `/admin` is executed. Consequences: - Authentication Bypass: Unauthenticated users can access protected routes. - Authorization Bypass: Restri...
