Red Hat Security Advisory 2024-1468-03 - An update for go-toolset-1.19-golang is now available for Red Hat Developer Tools. Issues addressed include a memory leak vulnerability.

### 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: ``` {"...

## Description: During some analysis today on npm's `node-tar` package I came across the folder creation process, Basicly if you provide node-tar with a path like this `./a/b/c/foo.txt` it would create every folder and sub-folder here a, b and c until it reaches the last folder to create `foo.txt`, In-this case I noticed that there's no validation at all on the amount of folders being created, that said we're actually able to CPU and memory consume the system running node-tar and even crash the nodejs client within few seconds of running it using a path with too many sub-folders inside ## Steps To Reproduce: You can reproduce this issue by downloading the tar file I provided in the resources and using node-tar to extract it, you should get the same behavior as the video ## Proof Of Concept: Here's a [video](https://hackerone-us-west-2-production-attachments.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/3i7uojw8s52psar6pg8zkdo4h9io?response-content-disposition=attachment%3B%20filename%3D%22tar-dos-poc....

### Summary _A file upload path traversal vulnerability has been identified in the application, enabling attackers to replace or create files with extensions like .json, .zip, .css, .gif, etc. This security flaw poses severe risks, that can allow attackers to inject arbitrary code on the server, undermine integrity of backup files by overwriting existing files or creating new ones, and exfiltrate sensitive data using CSS exfiltration techniques._ ### Installation Configuration - Grav CMS 1.10.44 - Apache web server - php-8.2 ### Details _**Vulnerable code location:**_ grav/system/src/Grav/Common/Media/Traits/MediaUploadTrait.php/checkFileMetadata() method_ public function checkFileMetadata(array $metadata, string $filename = null, array $settings = null): string { // Add the defaults to the settings. $settings = $this->getUploadSettings($settings); // Destination is always needed (but it can be set in defaults). $self = $settings['self'] ?? f...

### Summary _The **webpack-dev-middleware** middleware does not validate the supplied URL address sufficiently before returning the local file. It is possible to access any file on the developer's machine._ ### Details The middleware can either work with the physical filesystem when reading the files or it can use a virtualized in-memory _memfs_ filesystem. If _writeToDisk_ configuration option is set to **true**, the physical filesystem is used: [https://github.com/webpack/webpack-dev-middleware/blob/7ed24e0b9f53ad1562343f9f517f0f0ad2a70377/src/utils/setupOutputFileSystem.js#L21](https://github.com/webpack/webpack-dev-middleware/blob/7ed24e0b9f53ad1562343f9f517f0f0ad2a70377/src/utils/setupOutputFileSystem.js#L21) The _**getFilenameFromUrl**_ method is used to parse URL and build the local file path. The public path prefix is stripped from the URL, and the **unsecaped** path suffix is appended to the _outputPath_: [https://github.com/webpack/webpack-dev-middleware/blob/7ed24e0b9f53ad...

This Metasploit module exploits built-in functionality in OpenNMS Horizon in order to execute arbitrary commands as the opennms user. For versions 32.0.2 and higher, this module requires valid credentials for a user with ROLE_FILESYSTEM_EDITOR privileges and either ROLE_ADMIN or ROLE_REST. For versions 32.0.1 and lower, credentials are required for a user with ROLE_FILESYSTEM_EDITOR, ROLE_REST, and/or ROLE_ADMIN privileges. In that case, the module will automatically escalate privileges via CVE-2023-40315 or CVE-2023-0872 if necessary. This module has been successfully tested against OpenNMS version 31.0.7.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5626-2 - One of the upstream changes in the update released as DSA 5626 contained a regression in the zoneToCache function. Updated pdns-recursor packages are available to correct this issue.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5642-1 - Three security issues were discovered in php-svg-lib, a PHP library to read, parse and export to PDF SVG files, which could result in denial of service, restriction bypass or the execution of arbitrary code.
