Serious security flaws go unpatched, and ransomware attacks increase against manufacturers.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered across Common Desktop Environment version 1.6, Motif version 2.1, and X.Org libXpm versions prior to 3.5.15 on Oracle Solaris 10 that can be chained together to achieve root.

OpenText Extended ECM versions 16.2.2 through 22.3 suffer from arbitrary file deletion, information disclosure, local file inclusion, and privilege escalation vulnerabilities.

The Russian state-sponsored cyber espionage group known as Gamaredon has continued its digital onslaught against Ukraine, with recent attacks leveraging the popular messaging app Telegram to strike military and law enforcement sectors in the country. "The Gamaredon group's network infrastructure relies on multi-stage Telegram accounts for victim profiling and confirmation of geographic location,

In 2022, privacy was upended for millions of people. Here are the biggest stories from last year. (Read more...) The post What happened in privacy in 2022 appeared first on Malwarebytes Labs.

tpm2-tss is an open source software implementation of the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2 Software Stack (TSS2). In affected versions `Tss2_RC_SetHandler` and `Tss2_RC_Decode` both index into `layer_handler` with an 8 bit layer number, but the array only has `TPM2_ERROR_TSS2_RC_LAYER_COUNT` entries, so trying to add a handler for higher-numbered layers or decode a response code with such a layer number reads/writes past the end of the buffer. This Buffer overrun, could result in arbitrary code execution. An example attack would be a MiTM bus attack that returns 0xFFFFFFFF for the RC. Given the common use case of TPM modules an attacker must have local access to the target machine with local system privileges which allows access to the TPM system. Usually TPM access requires administrative privilege.

The "BoldMove" backdoor demonstrates a high level of knowledge of FortiOS, according to Mandiant researchers, who said the attacker appears to be based out of China.

An insecure default vulnerability exists in the Post Creation functionality of Ghost Foundation Ghost 5.9.4. Default installations of Ghost allow non-administrator users to inject arbitrary Javascript in posts, which allow privilege escalation to administrator via XSS. To trigger this vulnerability, an attacker can send an HTTP request to inject Javascript in a post to trick an administrator into visiting the post.A stored XSS vulnerability exists in the `codeinjection_foot` for a post.

Six payouts issued for bugs uncovered in Theia, Vertex AI, Compute Engine, and Cloud Workstations

A new critical remote code execution (RCE) flaw discovered impacting multiple services related to Microsoft Azure could be exploited by a malicious actor to completely take control of a targeted application. "The vulnerability is achieved through CSRF (cross-site request forgery) on the ubiquitous SCM service Kudu," Ermetic researcher Liv Matan said in a report shared with The Hacker News. "By
