A number of software brands are being impersonated with malicious ads and fake sites to distribute malware.

The vulnerability allows authenticated users with only produce or consume permissions to modify topic-level policies, such as retention, TTL, and offloading settings. These management operations should be restricted to users with the tenant admin role or super user role. This issue affects Apache Pulsar versions from 2.7.1 to 2.10.5, from 2.11.0 to 2.11.3, from 3.0.0 to 3.0.2, from 3.1.0 to 3.1.2, and 3.2.0. 2.10 Apache Pulsar users should upgrade to at least 2.10.6. 2.11 Apache Pulsar users should upgrade to at least 2.11.4. 3.0 Apache Pulsar users should upgrade to at least 3.0.3. 3.1 Apache Pulsar users should upgrade to at least 3.1.3. 3.2 Apache Pulsar users should upgrade to at least 3.2.1. Users operating versions prior to those listed above should upgrade to the aforementioned patched versions or newer versions.

### Summary The authentication API has a `redirect` parameter that can be exploited as an open redirect vulnerability as the user tries to log in via the API URL https://docs.directus.io/reference/authentication.html#login-using-sso-providers /auth/login/google?redirect for example. ### Details There's a redirect that is done after successful login via the Auth API GET request to `directus/auth/login/google?redirect=http://malicious-fishing-site.com`, which I think is here: https://github.com/directus/directus/blob/main/api/src/auth/drivers/oauth2.ts#L394. While credentials don't seem to be passed to the attacker site, the user can be phished into clicking a legitimate directus site and be taken to a malicious site made to look like a an error message "Your password needs to be updated" to phish out the current password. ### PoC Turn on any auth provider in Directus instance. Form a link to `directus-instance/auth/login/:provider_id?redirect=http://malicious-fishing-site.com`, login ...

## ASA-2024-006: ValidateVoteExtensions helper function may allow incorrect voting power assumptions **Component**: Cosmos SDK **Criticality**: High **Affected Versions**: Cosmos SDK versions <= 0.50.4, on 0.50 branches **Affected Users**: Chain developers, Validator and Node operators **Impact**: Elevation of Privilege ## Summary The default `ValidateVoteExtensions` helper function infers total voting power based off of the injected `VoteExtension`, which are injected by the proposer. If your chain utilizes the `ValidateVoteExtensions` helper in `ProcessProposal`, a dishonest proposer can potentially mutate voting power of each validator it includes in the injected `VoteExtension`, which could have potentially unexpected or negative consequences on modified state. Additional validation on injected `VoteExtension` data was added to confirm voting power against the state machine. ## Next Steps for Impacted Parties If you are a chain developer on an affected version of the Cosmos ...
