An issue was discovered in Ethernut Nut/OS 5.1. The code that generates Initial Sequence Numbers (ISNs) for TCP connections derives the ISN from an insufficiently random source. As a result, an attacker may be able to determine the ISN of current and future TCP connections and either hijack existing ones or spoof future ones. While the ISN generator seems to adhere to RFC 793 (where a global 32-bit counter is incremented roughly every 4 microseconds), proper ISN generation should aim to follow at least the specifications outlined in RFC 6528.

An exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor vulnerability [CWE-200] in FortiClient for Windows 7.2.0, 7.0 all versions, 6.4 all versions, 6.2 all versions, Linux 7.2.0, 7.0 all versions, 6.4 all versions, 6.2 all versions and Mac 7.2.0 through 7.2.1, 7.0 all versions, 6.4 all versions, 6.2 all versions, may allow a local authenticated attacker with no Administrative privileges to retrieve the list of files or folders excluded from malware scanning.

A buffer overflow in Macrium Reflect 8.1.7544 and below allows attackers to escalate privileges or execute arbitrary code.

An unprecedented collaboration by various APTs within the DPKR makes them harder to track, setting the stage for aggressive, complex cyberattacks that demand strategic response efforts, Mandiant warns.

Amazon Web Services (AWS), Cloudflare, and Google on Tuesday said they took steps to mitigate record-breaking distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks that relied on a novel technique called HTTP/2 Rapid Reset. The layer 7 attacks were detected in late August 2023, the companies said in a coordinated disclosure. The cumulative susceptibility to this attack is being tracked as CVE-2023-44487,

X’s Trust and Safety team says it’s working to remove false information related to the Israel-Hamas war. Meanwhile, Elon Musk is sharing conspiracies and chatting with QAnon promoters.

The Sangfor Next-Gen Application Firewall version NGAF8.0.17 is vulnerable to an operating system command injection vulnerability. A remote and unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary commands by sending a crafted HTTP POST request to the /cgi-bin/login.cgi endpoint. This is due to mishandling of shell meta-characters in the PHPSESSID cookie.
