Nine application security toolmakers band together to fork the popular Semgrep code-scanning project, touching off a controversy over access to features and fairness.

This new report from Cisco Talos Incident Response explores how threat actors increasingly deployed web shells against vulnerable web applications, and exploited vulnerable or unpatched public-facing applications to gain initial access.

### Impact If the "full-elastic-stack" example vector configuration was used for a real cluster, the previous values of kubernetes secrets would have been disclosed in the audit messages. ### Patches The example has been updated to fix this in commit db1aa5b867256b0a7bf206544c6981ab068b73dc ### Workarounds Replace ```yaml if .request.requestKind.kind == "Secret" { del(.request.object.data) .request.object.data.redacted = "REDACTED" del(.request.oldObject.data) .request.oldObject.data.redacted = "REDACTED" } ``` In the vector "audit-files-json-parser-and-redaction" step with ```yaml if .request.requestKind.kind == "Secret" { # Redact the secret data del(.request.object.data) .request.object.data.redacted = "REDACTED" del(.request.oldObject.data) .request.oldObject.data.redacted = "REDACTED" # Remove the previously set secret data - N...

### Issue Snowflake discovered and remediated a vulnerability in the Snowflake NodeJS Driver. File permissions checks of the temporary credential cache could be bypassed by an attacker with write access to the local cache directory. This vulnerability affects versions 1.12.0 through 2.0.1 on Linux. Snowflake fixed the issue in version 2.0.2. ### Vulnerability Details On Linux, when either EXTERNALBROWSER or USERNAME_PASSWORD_MFA authentication methods are used with temporary credential caching enabled, the Snowflake NodeJS Driver will cache temporary credentials in a local file. Due to a bug, the check verifying that the cache file can be accessed only by the user running the Driver always succeeded, but didn’t verify the permissions or the ownership correctly. An attacker with write access to the local cache folder could plant an empty file there and the Driver would use it to store temporary credentials instead of rejecting it due to overly broad permissions. ### Solution Snowflak...

The North Korean threat actor known as the Lazarus Group has been observed leveraging a "web-based administrative platform" to oversee its command-and-control (C2) infrastructure, giving the adversary the ability to centrally supervise all aspects of their campaigns. "Each C2 server hosted a web-based administrative platform, built with a React application and a Node.js API," SecurityScorecard's

### Impact The [ContextLines integration](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/node/configuration/integrations/contextlines/) uses readable streams to more efficiently use memory when reading files. The ContextLines integration is used to attach source context to outgoing events. The stream was not explicitly closed after use. This could lead to excessive amounts of file handles open on the system and potentially lead to a Denial of Service (DoS). The ContextLines integration is enabled by default in the Node SDK (`@sentry/node`) and SDKs that run in Node.js environments (`@sentry/astro`, `@sentry/aws-serverless`, `@sentry/bun`, `@sentry/google-cloud-serverless`, `@sentry/nestjs`, `@sentry/nextjs`, `@sentry/nuxt`, `@sentry/remix`, `@sentry/solidstart`, `@sentry/sveltekit`). ### Patches Users should upgrade to version `8.49.0` or higher. ### Workarounds To remediate this issue in affected versions without upgrading to version `8.49.0` and above you can disable the Co...

The firewall specialist has patched the security flaw, which was responsible for a series of attacks reported earlier this month that compromised FortiOS and FortiProxy products exposed to the public Internet.

Subaru STARLINK flaw exposed a critical security vulnerability, enabling unauthorized access to vehicle tracking, remote control, and sensitive…

About Authentication Bypass – FortiOS (CVE-2024-55591) vulnerability. A critical flaw allows remote attackers to gain super-admin privileges via crafted requests to the Node.js websocket module. Affected systems include Fortinet devices running FortiOS (e.g., FortiGate NGFW) and FortiProxy. 🔹 On January 10, Arctic Wolf reported attacks on Fortinet devices that began in November 2024. Attackers create […]

### Summary Source code may be stolen during dev when using webpack / rspack builder and you open a malicious web site. ### Details Because the request for classic script by a script tag is not subject to same origin policy, an attacker can inject `<script src="http://localhost:3000/_nuxt/app.js">` in their site and run the script. By using `Function::toString` against the values in `window.webpackChunknuxt_app`, the attacker can get the source code. ### PoC 1. Create a nuxt project with webpack / rspack builder. 1. Run `npm run dev` 1. Open `http://localhost:3000` 1. Run the script below in a web site that has a different origin. 1. You can see the source code output in the document and the devtools console. ```js const script = document.createElement('script') script.src = 'http://localhost:3000/_nuxt/app.js' script.addEventListener('load', () => { for (const page in window.webpackChunknuxt_app) { const moduleList = window.webpackChunknuxt_app[page][1] console.log(module...
