By Uzair Amir Is End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) a Myth? Traditional encryption has vulnerabilities. Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) offers a new hope… This is a post from HackRead.com Read the original post: How FHE Technology Is Making End-to-End Encryption a Reality

Two weeks before Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, a large, mysterious new Internet hosting firm called Stark Industries Solutions materialized and quickly became the epicenter of massive distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks on government and commercial targets in Ukraine and Europe. An investigation into Stark Industries reveals it is being used as a global proxy network that conceals the true source of cyberattacks and disinformation campaigns against enemies of Russia.

Plus, SS7 vulnerabilities are being exploited and BreachForums is taken down again.

A cross-site scripting vulnerability has been discovered in the FormAction field where a user-specified title may be specified.

In this paper, the authors show that Apple's WPS can be abused to create a privacy threat on a global scale. They present an attack that allows an unprivileged attacker to amass a worldwide snapshot of Wi-Fi BSSID geolocations in only a matter of days. Their attack makes few assumptions, merely exploiting the fact that there are relatively few dense regions of allocated MAC address space. Applying this technique over the course of a year, they learned the precise locations of over 2 billion BSSIDs around the world. The privacy implications of such massive datasets become more stark when taken longitudinally, allowing the attacker to track devices' movements.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6777-4 - Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.

## Impact Remote origin iFrames in Tauri applications can access the Tauri IPC endpoints without being explicitly allowed in the [`dangerousRemoteDomainIpcAccess`](https://v1.tauri.app/api/config/#securityconfig.dangerousremotedomainipcaccess) in v1 and in the [`capabilities`](https://v2.tauri.app/security/capabilities/#remote-api-access) in v2. This bypasses the origin check and allows iFrames to access the IPC endpoints exposed to the parent window. For this to be exploitable, an attacker must have script execution (e.g. XSS) in a script-enabled iFrame of a Tauri application. ## Patches The patches include changes to wry and the behaviour of Tauri applications using iFrames. Previously, we injected the Tauri IPC initialization script into iFrames on MacOS, which was unintended. This is now also disabled to be consistent with all other supported operating systems. This means that the Tauri invoke functionality is no longer accessible from iFrames, except on Windows when the origi...

### Summary During checkout, gitoxide does not verify that paths point to locations in the working tree. A specially crafted repository can, when cloned, place new files anywhere writable by the application. ### Details Although `gix-worktree-state` checks for collisions with existing files, it does not itself check if a path is really in the working tree when performing a checkout, nor do the path checks in `gix-fs` and `gix-worktree` prevent this. Cloning an untrusted repository containing specially crafted tree or blob names will create new files outside the repository, or inside the repository or a submodule's `.git` directory. The simplest cases are: - A tree named `..` to traverse upward. This facilitates arbitrary code execution because files can be placed in one or more locations where they are likely to be executed soon. - A tree named `.git` to enter a `.git` directory. This facilitates arbitrary code execution because hooks can be installed. A number of alternatives tha...
