Cisco Talos uncovered a stealthy Malware-as-a-Service (MaaS) operation that used fake GitHub accounts to distribute a variety of dangerous payloads and evade security defenses.
BADBOX variant BADBOX 2.0 found preinstalled on Android IoT devices in 222 countries, turning them into proxy nodes used in fraud and large-scale malicious activity.
The decision between immediate action and delayed response made the difference between ransomware prevention and complete encryption in these two real-world Talos IR engagements.
Fake Telegram apps are being spread through 607 malicious domains to deliver Android malware, using blog-style pages and phishing tactics to trick users.
### Impact Two related XXE injection possibilities have been discovered, **impacting all versions of DSpace prior to 7.6.4, 8.2 and 9.1**. 1. External entities are not disabled when parsing XML files during import of an archive (in [Simple Archive Format](https://wiki.lyrasis.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=104566653)), either from command-line (`./dspace import` command) or from the "Batch Import (Zip)" user interface feature. _(Likely impacts all versions of DSpace 1.x <= 7.6.3, 8.0 <= 8.1, and 9.0)_ 2. External entities are also not explicitly disabled when parsing XML responses from some upstream services (ArXiv, Crossref, OpenAIRE, Creative Commons) used in [import from external sources](https://wiki.lyrasis.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=104566672) via the user interface or REST API. _(Impacts all versions of DSpace 7.0 <= 7.6.3, 8.0 <= 8.1 and 9.0)_ An XXE injection in these files may result in a connection being made to an attacker's site or a local path readable by the ...
Beware! SVG images are now being used with obfuscated JavaScript for stealthy redirect attacks via spoofed emails. Get insights from Ontinue's latest research on detection and defence.
#### Summary An unsafe JavaScript evaluation vulnerability in pyLoad’s CAPTCHA processing code allows **unauthenticated remote attackers** to execute **arbitrary code** in the client browser and potentially the backend server. Exploitation requires no user interaction or authentication and can result in session hijacking, credential theft, and full system rce. #### Details The vulnerable code resides in ```javascript function onCaptchaResult(result) { eval(result); // Direct execution of attacker-controlled input } ``` * The `onCaptchaResult()` function directly passes CAPTCHA results (sent from the user) into `eval()` * No sanitization or validation is performed on this input * A malicious CAPTCHA result can include JavaScript such as `fetch()` or `child_process.exec()` in environments using NodeJS * Attackers can fully hijack sessions and pivot to remote code execution on the server if the environment allows it ### Reproduction Methods 1. **Official Source Installation**:...
Apache CXF stores large stream based messages as temporary files on the local filesystem. A bug was introduced which means that the entire temporary file is read into memory and then logged. An attacker might be able to exploit this to cause a denial of service attack by causing an out of memory exception. In addition, it is possible to configure CXF to encrypt temporary files to prevent sensitive credentials from being cached unencrypted on the local filesystem, however this bug means that the cached files are written out to logs unencrypted. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 3.5.11, 3.6.6, 4.0.7 or 4.1.1, which fixes this issue.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CVSS v4 9.1 ATTENTION: Exploitable remotely/low attack complexity Vendor: Hitachi Energy Equipment: Energy Asset Suite Vulnerabilities: Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs, Plaintext Storage of a Password, Out-of-bounds Write, Release of Invalid Pointer or Reference 2. RISK EVALUATION Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to the target equipment, perform remote code executions, or escalate privileges. 3. TECHNICAL DETAILS 3.1 AFFECTED PRODUCTS Hitachi Energy reports that the following products are affected: Asset Suite AnyWhere for Inventory (AWI) Android mobile app: Versions 11.5 and prior (CVE-2019-9262, CVE-2019-9429, CVE-2019-9256, CVE-2019-9290) Asset Suite 9 series: Version 9.6.4.4 (CVE-2025-1484, CVE-2025-2500) Asset Suite 9 series: Version 9.7 (CVE-2025-2500) 3.2 VULNERABILITY OVERVIEW 3.2.1 INCOMPLETE LIST OF DISALLOWED INPUTS CWE-184 A vulnerability exists in the media upload compon...
### Impact The XHTML syntax depended on the `xdom+xml/current` syntax which allows the creation of raw blocks that permit the insertion of arbitrary HTML content including JavaScript. This allows XSS attacks for users who can edit a document like their user profile (enabled by default). The attack works by setting the document's syntax to `xdom+xml/current` and then inserting content like ``` <document><p><metadata><metadata><entry><string>syntax</string><org.xwiki.rendering.syntax.Syntax><type><name>XHTML</name><id>xhtml</id><variants class="empty-list"></variants></type><version>5</version></org.xwiki.rendering.syntax.Syntax></entry></metadata></metadata></p><rawtext syntax="html/5.0" content="<script>alert(1);</script>"></rawtext></document> ``` This has been fixed by removing the dependency on the `xdom+xml/current` syntax from the XHTML syntax. Note that the `xdom+xml` syntax is still vulnerable to this attack. As it's main purpose is testing and its use is quite diff...
