### Description Since version 4.12.0, Dependency-Track users with the `SYSTEM_CONFIGURATION` permission can configure a "welcome message", which is HTML that is to be rendered on the login page for branding purposes. When rendering the welcome message, Dependency-Track versions before 4.13.6 did not properly sanitize the HTML, allowing arbitrary JavaScript to be executed. ### Impact Users with the `SYSTEM_CONFIGURATION` permission (i.e., administrators), can exploit this weakness to execute arbitrary JavaScript for users browsing to the login page. ### Patches The issue has been fixed in version 4.13.6. ### References * The issue was introduced via: https://github.com/DependencyTrack/frontend/pull/986 * The issue was fixed via: https://github.com/DependencyTrack/frontend/pull/1378 ### Credit Thanks to *Jonas Benjamin Friedli* for identifying and responsibly disclosing the issue.

### Summary The glob CLI contains a command injection vulnerability in its `-c/--cmd` option that allows arbitrary command execution when processing files with malicious names. When `glob -c <command> <patterns>` is used, matched filenames are passed to a shell with `shell: true`, enabling shell metacharacters in filenames to trigger command injection and achieve arbitrary code execution under the user or CI account privileges. ### Details **Root Cause:** The vulnerability exists in `src/bin.mts:277` where the CLI collects glob matches and executes the supplied command using `foregroundChild()` with `shell: true`: ```javascript stream.on('end', () => foregroundChild(cmd, matches, { shell: true })) ``` **Technical Flow:** 1. User runs `glob -c <command> <pattern>` 2. CLI finds files matching the pattern 3. Matched filenames are collected into an array 4. Command is executed with matched filenames as arguments using `shell: true` 5. Shell interprets metacharacters in filenames as c...

### Summary An authenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the main configuration update functionality of phpMyFAQ (v4.0.13 and prior) allows a privileged user with 'Configuration Edit' permissions to execute arbitrary SQL commands. Successful exploitation can lead to a full compromise of the database, including reading, modifying, or deleting all data, as well as potential remote code execution depending on the database configuration. ### Details The vulnerability exists in the `save` method within the `src/phpMyFAQ/Controller/Administration/ConfigurationTabController.php` controller. This method handles the saving of application-wide configuration settings. It retrieves all submitted form data as an associative array via `$request->get('edit')`. The core of the issue is that while the *values* of this array are processed, the *keys* are trusted implicitly and are not sanitized or validated. **File:** `src/phpMyFAQ/Controller/Administration/ConfigurationTabController.php` ```php...

This is how surveillance gets normalized: one “safety” feature at a time.

A copyright violation sounds serious, so cybercriminals are faking messages from the DMCA to lure you into handing over your X credentials.

This week showed just how fast things can go wrong when no one’s watching. Some attacks were silent and sneaky. Others used tools we trust every day — like AI, VPNs, or app stores — to cause damage without setting off alarms. It’s not just about hacking anymore. Criminals are building systems to make money, spy, or spread malware like it’s a business. And in some cases, they’re using the same

Phishing attacks are no longer confined to the email inbox, with 1 in 3 phishing attacks now taking place over non-email channels like social media, search engines, and messaging apps. LinkedIn in particular has become a hotbed for phishing attacks, and for good reason. Attackers are running sophisticated spear-phishing attacks against company executives, with recent campaigns seen targeting

The threat actor known as Dragon Breath has been observed making use of a multi-stage loader codenamed RONINGLOADER to deliver a modified variant of a remote access trojan called Gh0st RAT. The campaign, which is primarily aimed at Chinese-speaking users, employs trojanized NSIS installers masquerading as legitimate like Google Chrome and Microsoft Teams, according to Elastic Security Labs. "The

A list of topics we covered in the week of November 10 to November 16 of 2025

Microsoft this week pushed security updates to fix more than 60 vulnerabilities in its Windows operating systems and supported software, including at least one zero-day bug that is already being exploited. Microsoft also fixed a glitch that prevented some Windows 10 users from taking advantage of an extra year of security updates, which is nice because the zero-day flaw and other critical weaknesses patched today affect all versions of Windows, including Windows 10.
