GHSA-3p8v-w8mr-m3x8: Butterfly has path/URL confusion in resource handling leading to multiple weaknesses

### Summary The Butterfly framework uses the `java.net.URL` class to refer to (what are expected to be) local resource files, like images or templates. This works: "opening a connection" to these URLs opens the local file. However, if a `file:/` URL is directly given where a relative path (resource name) is expected, this is also accepted in some code paths; the app then fetches the file, from a remote machine if indicated, and uses it as if it was a trusted part of the app's codebase. This leads to multiple weaknesses and potential weaknesses: * An attacker that has network access to the application could use it to gain access to files, either on the the server's filesystem (path traversal) or shared by nearby machines (server-side request forgery with e.g. SMB). * An attacker that can lead or redirect a user to a crafted URL belonging to the app could cause arbitrary attacker-controlled JavaScript to be loaded in the victim's browser (cross-site scripting). * If an app is written ...

GHSA-87cf-j763-vvh8: OpenRefine's SQLite integration allows filesystem access, remote code execution (RCE)

### Summary In the `database` extension, the "enable_load_extension" property can be set for the SQLite integration, enabling an attacker to load (local or remote) extension DLLs and so run arbitrary code on the server. The attacker needs to have network access to the OpenRefine instance. ### Details The `database` extension, with some restrictions, lets users connect to any database they wish by filling in different parts of the JDBC URL that is used. For the SQLite integration, the extension expects a file path pointing to a database file (or a place where such a file can be created). This means that users can: * Read files on local or SMB filesystems, provided they are SQLite databases. * Write to files on local or SMB filesystems, as long as those files are either SQLite databases or empty. This seems to be the expected behavior. However, by adding `?enable_load_extension=true` to the filename, a [feature](https://www.sqlite.org/loadext.html) is toggled that additionally all...
