Threat actors affiliated with the Akira ransomware group have continued to target SonicWall devices for initial access. Cybersecurity firm Rapid7 said it observed a spike in intrusions involving SonicWall appliances over the past month, particularly following reports about renewed Akira ransomware activity since late July 2025. SonicWall subsequently revealed the SSL VPN activity aimed at its

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed two new campaigns that are serving fake browser extensions using malicious ads and fake websites to steal sensitive data. The malvertising campaign, per Bitdefender, is designed to push fake "Meta Verified" browser extensions named SocialMetrics Pro that claim to unlock the blue check badge for Facebook and Instagram profiles. At least 37 malicious ads

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a new campaign that leverages ConnectWise ScreenConnect, a legitimate Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) software, to deliver a fleshless loader that drops a remote access trojan (RAT) called AsyncRAT to steal sensitive data from compromised hosts. "The attacker used ScreenConnect to gain remote access, then executed a layered VBScript and

### Impact Angular uses a DI container (the "platform injector") to hold request-specific state during server-side rendering. For historical reasons, the container was stored as a JavaScript module-scoped global variable. When multiple requests are processed concurrently, they could inadvertently share or overwrite the global injector state. In practical terms, this can lead to one request responding with data meant for a completely different request, leaking data or tokens included on the rendered page or in response headers. As long as an attacker had network access to send any traffic that received a rendered response, they may have been able to send a large number of requests and then inspect the responses for information leaks. The following APIs were vulnerable and required SSR-only breaking changes: * `bootstrapApplication`: This function previously implicitly retrieved the last platform injector that was created. It now requires an explicit `BootstrapContext` in a server en...

The npm package `interactive-git-checkout` is an interactive command-line tool that allows users to checkout a git branch while it prompts for the branch name on the command-line. It is available as an npm package and can be installed via `npm install -g interactive-git-checkout`. Resources: * Project's npm package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/interactive-git-checkout ## Command Injection Vulnerability The `interactive-git-checkout` tool is vulnerable to a command injection vulnerability because it passes the branch name to the `git checkout` command using the Node.js child process module's `exec()` function without proper input validation or sanitization. The following vulnerable code snippets demonstrates the issue: ```js const { exec: execCb } = require('child_process'); const { promisify } = require('util'); const exec = promisify(execCb); module.exports = async (targetBranch) => { const { stdout, stderr } = await exec(`git checkout ${targetBranch}`); process.st...

### Impact By exploiting XSS vulnerabilities, malicious actors can perform harmful actions in the user's web browser in the session context of the affected user. Some examples of this include, but are not limited to: - Obtaining user session tokens. - Performing administrative actions (when an administrative user is affected). These vulnerabilities pose a high security risk. Since a sensitive cookie is not configured with the HttpOnly attribute and administrator JWTs are stored in sessionStorage, any successful XSS attack could enable the theft of session cookies and administrative tokens. #### Description When an application uses input fields, it is important that user input is adequately filtered for malicious HTML and JavaScript characters. When adequate input validation is not applied, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities may arise. These allow malicious actors to inject malicious code into application pages. When a user visits the page, the code is executed in the user's...

### Impact When generating PDF files, this vulnerability allows an attacker to read arbitrary files from the filesystem by injecting malicious link element into the prepped RFCXML. ### Workarounds Test untrusted input with `link` elements with `rel="attachment"` before processing. ### References This is related to [GHSA-cfmv-h8fx-85m7](https://github.com/ietf-tools/xml2rfc/security/advisories/GHSA-cfmv-h8fx-85m7).

At startup, Claude Code executed a command templated in with `git config user.email`. A maliciously configured user email in git could be used to trigger arbitrary code execution before a user accepted the workspace trust dialog. Users on standard Claude Code auto-update will have received this fix automatically. Users performing manual updates are advised to update to the latest version. Thank you to the NVIDIA AI Red Team for reporting this issue!

### Impact There is a Cross-Site-Scripting vulnerability when rendering LaTeX math code in contribution or abstract descriptions. ### Patches You should to update to [Indico 3.3.8](https://github.com/indico/indico/releases/tag/v3.3.8) as soon as possible. See [the docs](https://docs.getindico.io/en/stable/installation/upgrade/) for instructions on how to update. ### Workarounds Only let trustworthy users create content on Indico. Note that a conference doing a Call for Abstracts actively invites external speakers (who the organizers may not know and thus cannot fully trust) to submit content, hence the need to update to a a fixed version ASAP in particular when using such workflows. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: - Open a thread in [our forum](https://talk.getindico.io/) - Email us privately at [indico-team@cern.ch](mailto:indico-team@cern.ch)
