### Summary A SQL injection vulnerability has been discovered in the the "Add News" functionality due to improper escaping of the email address. This allows any authenticated user with the rights to add/edit FAQ news to exploit this vulnerability to exfiltrate data, take over accounts and in some cases, even achieve RCE. ### Details The vulnerable field lies in the `authorEmail` field which uses PHP's `FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL` filter. This filter is insufficient in protecting against SQL injection attacks and should still be properly escaped. However, in this version of phpMyFAQ (3.2.5), this field is not escaped properly can be used together with other fields to fully exploit the SQL injection vulnerability. ### PoCs 4 PoCs are demonstrated here to illustrate the potential impacts. #### PoC 1 - Postgres Time Based SQLi 1.

### Summary While examining the "App Link assetlinks.json file could not be found" vulnerability detected by MobSF, we, as the Trendyol Application Security team, noticed that a GET request was sent to the "/.well-known/assetlinks.json" endpoint for all hosts written with "android:host". In the AndroidManifest.xml file. Since MobSF does not perform any input validation when extracting the hostnames in "android:host", requests can also be sent to local hostnames. This may cause SSRF vulnerability. ### Details Example <intent-filter structure in AndroidManifest.xml: ``` <intent-filter android:autoVerify="true"> <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" /> <data android:host="192.168.1.102/user/delete/1#" android:scheme="http" /> </intent-filter> ``` We defined it as android:host="192.168.1.102/user/delete/1#". Here, the "#" character at the end of the hos...
A malicious ad for the popular admin tool PuTTY leads victims to a fake site that downloads malware.
### Summary An attacker controlling the second variable of the `translate` function is able to perform a cache poisoning attack. They can change the outcome of translation requests made by subsequent users. ### Details The `opt.id` parameter allows the overwriting of the cache key. If an attacker sets the `id` variable to the cache key that would be generated by another user, they can choose the response that user gets served. ### PoC Take the following simple server allowing users to supply text and the language to translate to. ```javascript import translate from "translate"; import express from 'express'; const app = express(); app.use(express.json()); app.post('/translate', async (req, res) => { const { text, language } = req.body; const result = await translate(text, language); return res.json(result); }); const port = 3000; app.listen(port, () => { console.log(`Server is running on port ${port}`); }); ``` We can send the following request to poison the cache: ``` {"...
