# Permissions-Policy is Only Served on HTML Content-Type The application configurable Permissions-Policy is only served on responses with an HTML related Content-Type. This has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2024-28103. Versions Affected: >= 6.1.0 Not affected: < 6.1.0 Fixed Versions: 6.1.7.8, 7.0.8.4, and 7.1.3.4 Impact ------ Responses with a non-HTML Content-Type are not serving the configured Permissions-Policy. There are certain non-HTML Content-Types that would benefit from having the Permissions-Policy enforced. Releases -------- The fixed releases are available at the normal locations.

# Reduced entropy due to inadequate character set usage ## Description Affected versions of the nano-id crate incorrectly generated IDs using a reduced character set in the `nano_id::base62` and `nano_id::base58` functions. Specifically, the `base62` function used a character set of 32 symbols instead of the intended 62 symbols, and the `base58` function used a character set of 16 symbols instead of the intended 58 symbols. Additionally, the `nano_id::gen` macro is also affected when a custom character set that is not a power of 2 in size is specified. It should be noted that `nano_id::base64` is not affected by this vulnerability. ## Impact This can result in a significant reduction in entropy, making the generated IDs predictable and vulnerable to brute-force attacks when the IDs are used in security-sensitive contexts such as session tokens or unique identifiers. ## Patches The flaws were corrected in commit [a9022772b2f1ce38929b5b81eccc670ac9d3ab23](https://github.com/viz-rs...

### Describe the Bug Providing a non-numeric length value to the random string generation utility will create a memory issue breaking the capability to generate random strings platform wide. This creates a denial of service situation where logged in sessions can no longer be refreshed as sessions depend on the capability to generate a random session ID. ### To Reproduce 1. Test if the endpoint is working and accessible, `GET http://localhost:8055/utils/random/string` 2. Do a bad request `GET http://localhost:8055/utils/random/string?length=foo` 3. After this all calls to `GET http://localhost:8055/utils/random/string` will return an empty string instead of a random string 4. In this error situation you'll see authentication refreshes fail for the app and api. ### Impact This counts as an unauthenticated denial of service attack vector so this impacts all unpatched instances reachable over the internet.

### Summary iq80 Snappy performs out-of-bounds read access when uncompressing certain data, which can lead to a JVM crash. ### Details When uncompressing certain data, Snappy tries to read outside the bounds of the given byte arrays. Because Snappy uses the JDK class `sun.misc.Unsafe` to speed up memory access, no additional bounds checks are performed and this has similar security consequences as out-of-bounds access in C or C++, namely it can lead to non-deterministic behavior or crash the JVM. iq80 Snappy is not actively maintained anymore. As quick fix users can upgrade to version 0.5, but in the long term users should prefer migrating to the Snappy implementation in https://github.com/airlift/aircompressor (version 0.27 or newer). ### Impact When uncompressing data from untrusted users, this can be exploited for a denial-of-service attack by crashing the JVM.
