## Summary Malicious versions of the [`nx` package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/nx), as well as some supporting plugin packages, were published to npm, containing code that scans the file system, collects credentials, and posts them to GitHub as a repo under user's accounts. ## Affected Versions of `nx` - 21.5.0 - Published at 6:32 PM - 20.9.0 - 20.10.0 - 21.6.0 - 20.11.0 - 21.7.0 - 21.8.0 - 20.12.0 - Published at 8:37 PM These versions have since been removed from NPM as of 10:44 PM EDT ## Affected Versions of `@nx/devkit`, `@nx/js`, `@nx/workspace`, `@nx/node` - 21.5.0 - Published at 6:32 PM - 20.9.0 - Published at 8:42 PM ## Affected Versions of `@nx/eslint` - 21.5.0 - Published at 6:32 PM These versions have since been removed from NPM as of 10:44 PM EDT ## Affected Versions of `@nx/key` and `@nx/enterprise-cloud` - 3.2.0 only - Published at 6:32 PM These versions have since been removed from NPM as of 6:20 AM EDT ## Attack Vector At this time, we bel...

## 1. `devalue.parse` allows `__proto__` to be set A string passed to `devalue.parse` could represent an object with a `__proto__` property, which would assign a prototype to an object while allowing properties to be overwritten: ```js class Vector { constructor(x, y) { this.x = x; this.y = y; } get magnitude() { return (this.x ** 2 + this.y ** 2) ** 0.5; } } const payload = `[{"x":1,"y":2,"magnitude":3,"__proto__":4},3,4,"nope",["Vector",5],[6,7],8,9]`; const vector = devalue.parse(payload, { Vector: ([x, y]) => new Vector(x, y) }); console.log("Is vector", vector instanceof Vector); // true console.log(vector.x) // 3 console.log(vector.y) // 4 console.log(vector.magnitude); // "nope" instead of 5 ``` ## 2. `devalue.parse` allows array prototype methods to be assigned to object In a payload constructed with `devalue.stringify`, values are represented as array indices, where the array contains the 'hydrated' values: ```js devalue.stringify({ message: 'hel...

### Summary Using idlelib.debugobj.ObjectTreeItem.SetText, which is a built-in python library function to execute remote pickle file. ### Details The attack payload executes in the following steps: First, the attacker craft the payload by calling to idlelib.debugobj.ObjectTreeItem.SetText function in reduce method Then when the victim after checking whether the pickle file is safe by using Picklescan library and this library doesn't dectect any dangerous functions, decide to pickle.load() this malicious pickle file, thus lead to remote code execution. ### PoC ``` class EvilDebugobjSetText: def __reduce__(self): from idlelib.debugobj import ObjectTreeItem # ObjectTreeItem(..., setfunction=print).SetText(cmd) return ObjectTreeItem("label", None, print).SetText, ("__import__('os').system('whoami')",) ``` ### Impact Who is impacted? Any organization or individual relying on picklescan to detect malicious pickle files inside PyTorch models. What is the im...

### Impact User control of the first argument of the addImage method results in CPU utilization and denial of service. If given the possibility to pass unsanitized image data or URLs to the addImage method, a user can provide a harmful PNG file that results in high CPU utilization and denial of service. Other affected methods are: `html`. Example payload: ```js import { jsPDF } from "jpsdf" const payload = new Uint8Array([117, 171, 90, 253, 166, 154, 105, 166, 154]) const doc = new jsPDF(); const startTime = performance.now(); try { doc.addImage(payload, "PNG", 10, 40, 180, 180, undefined, "SLOW"); } finally { const endTime = performance.now(); console.log(`Call to doc.addImage took ${endTime - startTime} milliseconds`); } ``` ### Patches The vulnerability was fixed in jsPDF 3.0.2. Upgrade to jspdf@>=3.0.2. In jspdf@>=3.0.2, invalid PNG files throw an Error instead of causing very long running loops. ### Workarounds Sanitize image data or URLs before passing it to the a...

A denial of service vulnerability exists in the JSONReader component of the run-llama/llama_index repository, specifically in version v0.12.37. The vulnerability is caused by uncontrolled recursion when parsing deeply nested JSON files, which can lead to Python hitting its maximum recursion depth limit. This results in high resource consumption and potential crashes of the Python process. The issue is resolved in version 0.12.38.

At Microsoft, securing the ecosystem means more than just fixing bugs—it means proactively hunting for variant classes, identifying systemic weaknesses, and working across teams to protect customers before attackers ever get the chance. This blog highlights one such effort: a deep dive into the risks of misconfigured postMessage handlers across Microsoft services and how MSRC worked with engineering teams to mitigate them.

Liferay Portal 7.4.0 through 7.4.3.131, and Liferay DXP 2024.Q4.0 through 2024.Q4.7, 2024.Q3.1 through 2024.Q3.13, 2024.Q2.0 through 2024.Q2.13, 2024.Q1.1 through 2024.Q1.15 and 7.4 GA through update 92 allows authenticated users without any permissions to access sensitive information of admin users using JSONWS APIs.

### Summary Dpanel has an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the /api/app/compose/get-from-uri interface.Logged in to Dpanel ,this interface can be used to read arbitrary files. ### Details When a user logs into the administrative backend, this interface can read any files on the host/sever (given the necessary permissions), which may lead to system information leakage. The vulnerability lies in the GetFromUri function within the app/application/http/controller/compose.go file. The uri parameter submitted by the user in JSON format can be directly read and returned by os.ReadFile without proper security handling.   ### PoC ```text POST /api/app/compose/get-from-uri HTTP/1.1 Host: x.x.x.x User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:136.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefo...

hippo4j 1.0.0 to 1.5.0, uses a hard-coded secret key in its JWT (JSON Web Token) creation. This allows attackers with access to the source code or compiled binary to forge valid access tokens and impersonate any user, including privileged ones such as "admin". The vulnerability poses a critical security risk in systems where authentication and authorization rely on the integrity of JWTs.
