Why Secrets in JavaScript Bundles are Still Being Missed

Leaked API keys are no longer unusual, nor are the breaches that follow. So why are sensitive tokens still being so easily exposed? To find out, Intruder’s research team looked at what traditional vulnerability scanners actually cover and built a new secrets detection method to address gaps in existing approaches.  Applying this at scale by scanning 5 million applications revealed over

⚡ Weekly Recap: Fortinet Exploits, RedLine Clipjack, NTLM Crack, Copilot Attack & More

In cybersecurity, the line between a normal update and a serious incident keeps getting thinner. Systems that once felt reliable are now under pressure from constant change. New AI tools, connected devices, and automated systems quietly create more ways in, often faster than security teams can react. This week’s stories show how easily a small mistake or hidden service can turn into a real

Firefox joins Chrome and Edge as sleeper extensions spy on users

Researchers found more sleeper browser extensions that spy on users and install backdoors, this time targeting Firefox users as well.

GHSA-6vfr-p2hx-6v32: Apache Linkis: Password Exposure

When org.apache.linkis.metadata.util.HiveUtils.decode() fails to perform Base64 decoding, it records the complete input parameter string in the log via logger.error(str + "decode failed", e). If the input parameter contains sensitive information such as Hive Metastore keys, plaintext passwords will be left in the log files when decoding fails, resulting in information leakage. Affected Scope Component: Sensitive fields in hive-site.xml (e.g., javax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword) or other fields encoded in Base64. Version: Apache Linkis 1.0.0 – 1.7.0 Trigger Conditions The value of the configuration item is an invalid Base64 string. Log files are readable by users other than hive-site.xml administrators. Severity: Low The probability of Base64 decoding failure is low. The leakage is only triggered when logs at the Error level are exposed. Remediation Apache Linkis 1.8.0 and later versions have replaced the log with desensitized content. logger.error("URL decode failed: {}", e.get...

GHSA-c399-q49h-qwc8: Apache Linkis: Arbitrary File Read via Double URL Encoding Bypass

A vulnerability in Apache Linkis. Problem Description When using the JDBC engine and data source functionality, if the URL parameter configured on the frontend has undergone multiple rounds of URL encoding, it may bypass the system's checks. This bypass can trigger a vulnerability that allows unauthorized access to system files via JDBC parameters. Scope of Impact This issue affects Apache Linkis: from 1.3.0 through 1.7.0. Severity level moderate Solution Continuously check if the connection information contains the "%" character; if it does, perform URL decoding. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.8.0, which fixes the issue. More questions about this vulnerability can be discussed here:  https://lists.apache.org/list?dev@linkis.apache.org:2025-9:cve

CrashFix Chrome Extension Delivers ModeloRAT Using ClickFix-Style Browser Crash Lures

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of an ongoing campaign dubbed KongTuke that used a malicious Google Chrome extension masquerading as an ad blocker to deliberately crash the web browser and trick victims into running arbitrary commands using ClickFix-like lures to deliver a previously undocumented remote access trojan (RAT) dubbed ModeloRAT. This new escalation of ClickFix has

Security Bug in StealC Malware Panel Let Researchers Spy on Threat Actor Operations

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the web-based control panel used by operators of the StealC information stealer, allowing them to gather crucial insights on one of the threat actors using the malware in their operations. "By exploiting it, we were able to collect system fingerprints, monitor active sessions, and – in a twist that will

GHSA-vhcx-7rpg-hp39: risesoft-y9 Digital-Infrastructure has a SQL injection vulnerability

A flaw has been found in risesoft-y9 Digital-Infrastructure up to 9.6.7. This affects an unknown function of the file source-code/src/main/java/net/risesoft/util/Y9PlatformUtil.java of the component REST Authenticate Endpoint. Executing a manipulation can lead to sql injection. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

GHSA-8qq5-rm4j-mr97: node-tar is Vulnerable to Arbitrary File Overwrite and Symlink Poisoning via Insufficient Path Sanitization

### Summary The `node-tar` library (`<= 7.5.2`) fails to sanitize the `linkpath` of `Link` (hardlink) and `SymbolicLink` entries when `preservePaths` is false (the default secure behavior). This allows malicious archives to bypass the extraction root restriction, leading to **Arbitrary File Overwrite** via hardlinks and **Symlink Poisoning** via absolute symlink targets. ### Details The vulnerability exists in `src/unpack.ts` within the `[HARDLINK]` and `[SYMLINK]` methods. **1. Hardlink Escape (Arbitrary File Overwrite)** The extraction logic uses `path.resolve(this.cwd, entry.linkpath)` to determine the hardlink target. Standard Node.js behavior dictates that if the second argument (`entry.linkpath`) is an **absolute path**, `path.resolve` ignores the first argument (`this.cwd`) entirely and returns the absolute path. The library fails to validate that this resolved target remains within the extraction root. A malicious archive can create a hardlink to a sensitive file on the h...

GHSA-pcjq-j3mq-jv5j: SiYuan Has a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability via Unrestricted SVG File Upload

### Summary A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in SiYuan Note. The application does not sanitize uploaded SVG files. If a user uploads and views a malicious SVG file (e.g., imported from an untrusted source), arbitrary JavaScript code is executed in the context of their authenticated session. ### Details The application allows authenticated users to upload files, including .svg images, without sanitizing the input to remove embedded JavaScript code (such as <script> tags or event handlers). ### PoC 1. Create a new "Daily note" in the workspace. <img width="1287" height="572" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3a4389b9-695d-4e1b-94dc-72efdb047aa9" /> 2. Create a file named test.svg with malicious JavaScript inside: ``` <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="200" height="200" viewBox="0 0 124 124" fill="none"> <rect width="124" height="124" rx="24" fill="red"/> <script type="text/javascript"> alert(window.origin); <...
