A local file disclosure vulnerability in /appConfig/userDB.json of Telos Alliance Omnia MPX Node through 1.5.0+r1 allows attackers to escalate privileges to root and execute arbitrary commands.

Today, Talos is publishing a glimpse into the most prevalent threats we've observed between Aug. 26 and Sept. 2. As with previous roundups, this post isn't meant to be an in-depth analysis. Instead, this post will summarize the threats we've observed by highlighting key behavioral characteristics, indicators of compromise, and discussing how our customers are automatically protected from these threats. As a reminder, the information provided for the following threats in this post is non-exhaustive and current as of the date of publication. Additionally, please keep in mind that IOC searching is only one part of threat hunting. Spotting a single IOC does not necessarily indicate maliciousness. Detection and coverage for the following threats is subject to updates, pending additional threat or vulnerability analysis. For the most current information, please refer to your Firepower Management Center, Snort.org, or ClamAV.net. For each threat described below, this blog post only lists 2...

OX App Suite versions 8.2 and earlier suffer from multiple cross site scripting vulnerabilities. Versions 7.10.6 and earlier suffer from a command injection vulnerability.

Serious security prompt developers to discontinue open source package

NodeBB Forum Software is powered by Node.js and supports either Redis, MongoDB, or a PostgreSQL database. Due to an unnecessarily strict conditional in the code handling the first step of the SSO process, the pre-existing logic that added (and later checked) a nonce was inadvertently rendered opt-in instead of opt-out. This re-exposed a vulnerability in that a specially crafted Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack could theoretically take over another user account during the single sign-on process. The issue has been fully patched in version 1.17.2.

An issue was discovered in the MediaWiki through 1.38.2. The community configuration pages for the GrowthExperiments extension could cause a site to become unavailable due to insufficient validation when certain actions (including page moves) were performed.

kkFileView v4.0.0 was discovered to contain an arbitrary file deletion vulnerability via the fileName parameter at /controller/FileController.java.

jsoup may incorrectly sanitize HTML including `javascript:` URL expressions, which could allow cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks when a reader subsequently clicks that link. If the non-default `SafeList.preserveRelativeLinks` option is enabled, HTML including `javascript:` URLs that have been crafted with control characters will not be sanitized. If the site that this HTML is published on does not set a Content Security Policy, an XSS attack is then possible. ### Impact Sites that accept input HTML from users and use jsoup to sanitize that HTML, may be vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, if they have enabled `SafeList.preserveRelativeLinks` and do not set an appropriate Content Security Policy. ### Patches This issue is patched in jsoup 1.15.3. Users should upgrade to this version. Additionally, as the unsanitized input may have been persisted, old content should be cleaned again using the updated version. ### Workarounds To remediate this issue without immediately u...

IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, 11.2.0, and 11.2.1 is vulnerable to cross-site request forgery which could allow an attacker to execute malicious and unauthorized actions transmitted from a user that the website trusts. IBM X-Force ID: 176609.

In LibRaw, an out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists within the get_huffman_diff() function (libraw\src\x3f\x3f_utils_patched.cpp) when reading data from an image file.
