### Summary The `hostDisk` feature in KubeVirt allows mounting a host file or directory owned by the user with UID 107 into a VM. However, the implementation of this feature and more specifically the `DiskOrCreate` option which creates a file if it doesn't exist, has a logic bug that allows an attacker to read and write arbitrary files owned by more privileged users on the host system. ### Details The `hostDisk` feature gate in KubeVirt allows mounting a QEMU RAW image directly from the host into a VM. While similar features, such as mounting disk images from a PVC, enforce ownership-based restrictions (e.g., only allowing files owned by specific UID, this mechanism can be subverted. For a RAW disk image to be readable by the QEMU process running within the `virt-launcher` pod, it must be owned by a user with UID 107. **If this ownership check is considered a security barrier, it can be bypassed**. In addition, the ownership of the host files mounted via this feature is changed to th...

AstrBot Project v3.5.22 has an arbitrary file read vulnerability in function _encode_image_bs64. Since the _encode_image_bs64 function defined in entities.py opens the image specified by the user in the request body and returns the image content as a base64-encoded string without checking the legitimacy of the image path, attackers can construct a series of malicious URLs to read any specified file, resulting in sensitive data leakage.

AV-Comparatives put 13 top Android security apps to the test against stalkerware. Malwarebytes caught them all.

A now-patched security flaw in Samsung Galaxy Android devices was exploited as a zero-day to deliver a "commercial-grade" Android spyware dubbed LANDFALL in targeted attacks in the Middle East. The activity involved the exploitation of CVE-2025-21042 (CVSS score: 8.8), an out-of-bounds write flaw in the "libimagecodec.quram.so" component that could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary

### Summary Open WebUI v0.6.33 and below contains a code injection vulnerability in the Direct Connections feature that allows malicious external model servers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in victim browsers via Server-Sent Event (SSE) `execute` events. This leads to authentication token theft, complete account takeover, and when chained with the Functions API, enables remote code execution on the backend server. The attack requires the victim to enable Direct Connections (disabled by default) and add the attacker's malicious model URL, achievable through social engineering of the admin and subsequent users. ### Details ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS: Open WebUI's Direct Connections feature allows users to add external OpenAI-compatible model servers without proper validation of the Server-Sent Events (SSE) these servers emit. VULNERABLE COMPONENT: Frontend SSE Event Handler The frontend JavaScript code processes SSE events from external servers and specifically handles an `execute` eve...

A China-linked threat actor has been attributed to a cyber attack targeting an U.S. non-profit organization with an aim to establish long-term persistence, as part of broader activity aimed at U.S. entities that are linked to or involved in policy issues. The organization, according to a report from Broadcom's Symantec and Carbon Black teams, is "active in attempting to influence U.S. government

Human-centered identity frameworks are incorrectly being applied to AI agents, creating the potential for catastrophe at machine speed, Poghosyan argues.

Imagine this: Sarah from accounting gets what looks like a routine password reset email from your organization’s cloud provider. She clicks the link, types in her credentials, and goes back to her spreadsheet. But unknown to her, she’s just made a big mistake. Sarah just accidentally handed over her login details to cybercriminals who are laughing all the way to their dark web

Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a malicious Visual Studio Code (VS Code) extension with basic ransomware capabilities that appears to be created with the help of artificial intelligence – in other words, vibe-coded. Secure Annex researcher John Tuckner, who flagged the extension "susvsex," said it does not attempt to hide its malicious functionality. The extension was uploaded on
