The UK, France, Sweden, and EU have made fresh attacks on end-to-end encryption. Some of the attacks are more “crude” than those in recent years, experts say.
## Summary An unauthorized attacker can leverage the whitelisted route `/api/v1/attachments` to upload arbitrary files when the `storageType` is set to **local** (default). ## Details When a new request arrives, the system first checks if the URL starts with `/api/v1/`. If it does, the system then verifies whether the URL is included in the whitelist (*whitelistURLs*). If the URL is whitelisted, the request proceeds; otherwise, the system enforces authentication. @ */packages/server/src/index.ts* ```typescript this.app.use(async (req, res, next) => { // Step 1: Check if the req path contains /api/v1 regardless of case if (URL_CASE_INSENSITIVE_REGEX.test(req.path)) { // Step 2: Check if the req path is case sensitive if (URL_CASE_SENSITIVE_REGEX.test(req.path)) { // Step 3: Check if the req path is in the whitelist const isWhitelisted = whitelistURLs.some(...

### Summary _An HTML Injection vulnerability in the customer account portal allows an attacker to inject malicious HTML payloads in the email section. This can lead to phishing attacks, credential theft, and reputational damage by redirecting users to malicious external websites. The vulnerability has a medium severity, as it can be exploited through user input without authentication._ ### Observation _It is observed that in the portal of the customer account, there is a functionality in the email section to create an email address that accepts user input. By intercepting the request and modifying the "domain" field with an HTML injection payload containing an anchor tag, the injected payload is reflected on an error page. When clicked, it redirects users to an external website, confirming the presence of an HTML Injection vulnerability._ ### PoC 1. Navigate to the Email section in the Customer Account Portal and create a new email address. 2. Enter any garbage value in the required...
### Summary PickleScan is vulnerable to a ZIP archive manipulation attack that causes it to crash when attempting to extract and scan PyTorch model archives. By modifying the filename in the ZIP header while keeping the original filename in the directory listing, an attacker can make PickleScan raise a BadZipFile error. However, PyTorch's more forgiving ZIP implementation still allows the model to be loaded, enabling malicious payloads to bypass detection. ### Details Python's built-in zipfile module performs strict integrity checks when extracting ZIP files. If a filename stored in the ZIP header does not match the filename in the directory listing, zipfile.ZipFile.open() raises a BadZipFile error. PickleScan relies on zipfile to extract and inspect the contents of PyTorch model archives, making it susceptible to this manipulation. PyTorch, on the other hand, has a more tolerant ZIP handling mechanism that ignores these discrepancies, allowing the model to load even when PickleSca...
### Summary PickleScan fails to detect malicious pickle files inside PyTorch model archives when certain ZIP file flag bits are modified. By flipping specific bits in the ZIP file headers, an attacker can embed malicious pickle files that remain undetected by PickleScan while still being successfully loaded by PyTorch's torch.load(). This can lead to arbitrary code execution when loading a compromised model. ### Details PickleScan relies on Python’s zipfile module to extract and scan files within ZIP-based model archives. However, certain flag bits in ZIP headers affect how files are interpreted, and some of these bits cause PickleScan to fail while leaving PyTorch’s loading mechanism unaffected. By modifying the flag_bits field in the ZIP file entry, an attacker can: - Embed a malicious pickle file (bad_file.pkl) in a PyTorch model archive. - Flip specific bits (e.g., 0x1, 0x20, 0x40) in the ZIP metadata. - Prevent PickleScan from scanning the archive due to errors raised by zipf...
