GHSA-7hfx-h3j3-rwq4: D-Tale server-side request forgery through Web uploads

### Impact Users hosting D-Tale publicly can be vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF) allowing attackers to access files on the server. ### Patches Users should upgrade to version 3.9.0 where the "Load From the Web" input is turned off by default. You can find out more information on how to turn it back on [here](https://github.com/man-group/dtale?tab=readme-ov-file#load-data--sample-datasets) ### Workarounds The only workaround for versions earlier than 3.9.0 is to only host D-Tale to trusted users. ### References See "Load Data & Sample Datasets" [documentation](https://github.com/man-group/dtale?tab=readme-ov-file#load-data--sample-datasets)

Themebleed Windows 11 Themes Arbitrary Code Execution

When an unpatched Windows 11 host loads a theme file referencing an msstyles file, Windows loads the msstyles file, and if that file's PACKME_VERSION is 999, it then attempts to load an accompanying dll file ending in _vrf.dll. Before loading that file, it verifies that the file is signed. It does this by opening the file for reading and verifying the signature before opening the file for execution. Because this action is performed in two discrete operations, it opens the procedure for a time of check to time of use vulnerability. By embedding a UNC file path to an SMB server we control, the SMB server can serve a legitimate, signed dll when queried for the read, but then serve a different file of the same name when the host intends to load/execute the dll.

GHSA-wf2x-8w6j-qw37: view_component Cross-site Scripting vulnerability

### Impact _What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?_ This is an XSS vulnerability that has the potential to impact anyone rendering a component directly from a controller with the view_component gem. Note that only components that define a [`#call` method](https://viewcomponent.org/guide/templates.html#call) (i.e. instead of using a sidecar template) are affected. The return value of the `#call` method is not sanitized and can include user-defined content. In addition, the return value of the [`#output_postamble` method](https://viewcomponent.org/api.html#output_postamble--string) is not sanitized, which can also lead to XSS issues. ### Patches _Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_ Versions 3.9.0 has been released and fully mitigates both the `#call` and the `#output_postamble` vulnerabilities. ### Workarounds _Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?_ Sanitize the return value of `#call`, eg: `...
