Evidence suggests that a just-discovered APT has been active since 2013.

Versions of the Amazon AWS Apache Log4j hotpatch package before log4j-cve-2021-44228-hotpatch-1.3.5 are affected by a race condition that could lead to a local privilege escalation. This Hotpatch package is not a replacement for updating to a log4j version that mitigates CVE-2021-44228 or CVE-2021-45046; it provides a temporary mitigation to CVE-2021-44228 by hotpatching the local Java virtual machines. To do so, it iterates through all running Java processes, performs several checks, and executes the Java virtual machine with the same permissions and capabilities as the running process to load the hotpatch. A local user could cause the hotpatch script to execute a binary with elevated privileges by running a custom java process that performs exec() of an SUID binary after the hotpatch has observed the process path and before it has observed its effective user ID.

Despite major progress fighting spam and scams, the roots of the problem go far deeper than your phone company’s defenses.

Contactless fingerprinting uses a smartphone camera to capture your prints—and opens up a whole new set of privacy concerns.

Red Hat Product Security is pleased to announce that a new security metadata offering, the Common Security Advisory Framework (CSAF), is now available in beta form. CSAF 2.0 is the successor to the Common Vulnerability Reporting Framework (CVRF) version 1.2, and contains many enhancements to the information provided in each CSAF file. Additionally, CSAF uses the JSON format instead of the XML format used by CVRF.

This advisory contains mitigations for Uncontrolled Search Path Element, Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information vulnerabilities in AutomationDirect C-More EA9 human-machine interface products.

### Impact InvenTree allows unrestricted upload of files as attachments to various database fields. Potentially dangerous files (such as HTML files containing malicious javascript) can be uploaded, and (when opened by the user) run the malicious code directly in the users browser.  *Note that the upload of malicious files must be performed by an authenticated user account* ### Solution The solution for this vulnerability is to ensure that attachment files are downloaded to the local machine before opening, rather than opening the file in the current browser context. ### Patches - The issue is addressed in the upcoming 0.8.0 release - This fix will also be back-ported to the 0.7.x branch, applied to the 0.7.2 release ### Workarounds Users can alleviate risk of opening malicious files by right-clicking on the attachment link and selecting "Save link as" ![image](https:...

Affected versions of this crate did not properly check the length of an enum when using `enum_map!` macro, trusting user-provided length. When the `LENGTH` in the `Enum` trait does not match the array length in the `EnumArray` trait, this can result in the initialization of the enum map with uninitialized types, which in turn can allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. This problem can only occur with a manual implementation of the Enum trait, it will never occur for enums that use `#[derive(Enum)]`. Example code that triggers this vulnerability looks like this: ```rust enum E { A, B, C, } impl Enum for E { const LENGTH: usize = 2; fn from_usize(value: usize) -> E { match value { 0 => E::A, 1 => E::B, 2 => E::C, _ => unimplemented!(), } } fn into_usize(self) -> usize { self as usize } } impl<V> EnumArray<V> for E { type Array = [V; 3]; } let _map: EnumMap<E, String>...

Affected version of this crate, which is a required dependency in com-impl, provides a faulty implementation of the `IUnknown::QueryInterface` method. `QueryInterface` implementation must call `IUnknown::AddRef` before returning the pointer, as describe in this documentation: <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/unknwn/nf-unknwn-iunknown-queryinterface(refiid_void)> As it is not incrementing the refcount as expected, the following calls to `IUnknown::Release` method will cause WMI to drop reference to the interface, and can lead to invalid reference. This is documented in <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/learnwin32/managing-the-lifetime-of-an-object#reference-counting> There is no simple workaround, as you can't know how many time QueryInterface will be called. The only way to quick fix this is to use the macro expanded version of the code and modify the QueryInterface method to add the AddRef call yourself. The issue was corrected in commit `9803f...
