Microsoft Corp. today pushed software updates to plug more than 70 security holes in its Windows operating systems and related products, including two zero-day vulnerabilities that are already being exploited in active attacks.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2024-0778-03 - An update for Jenkins and Jenkins-2-plugins is now available for OpenShift Developer Tools and Services for OCP 4.12. Issues addressed include bypass, code execution, cross site request forgery, cross site scripting, denial of service, improper authorization, information leakage, insecure permissions, and open redirection vulnerabilities.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2024-0777-03 - An update for jenkins and jenkins-2-plugins is now available for OpenShift Developer Tools and Services for OCP 4.14. Issues addressed include bypass, code execution, cross site request forgery, cross site scripting, denial of service, information leakage, and open redirection vulnerabilities.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2024-0776-03 - An update for jenkins and jenkins-2-plugins is now available for OpenShift Developer Tools and Services for OCP 4.13. Issues addressed include bypass, code execution, cross site scripting, and denial of service vulnerabilities.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2024-0775-03 - An update for jenkins and jenkins-2-plugins is now available for OpenShift Developer Tools and Services for OCP 4.11. Issues addressed include bypass, code execution, cross site scripting, deserialization, information leakage, and insecure permissions vulnerabilities.

Although considered of moderate risk, one of the vulnerabilities is being actively exploited in the wild — CVE-2024-21351, a security feature bypass vulnerability in Windows SmartScreen.

### Summary Cross site scripting (XSS) potentially exposing cookies / sessions / localStorage, fixed by `sidekiq-unique-jobs` v8.0.7. Specifically, this is a Reflected (Server-Side), Non-Self, Cross Site Scripting vulnerability, considered a **_P3_** on the BugCrowd [taxonomy](https://bugcrowd.com/vulnerability-rating-taxonomy) with the following categorization: Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) > Reflected > Non-Self It was initially thought there was a second vulnerability (RCE), but it was a false alarm. Injection is impossible with Redis: > String escaping and NoSQL injection > The Redis protocol has no concept of string escaping, so injection is impossible under normal circumstances using a normal client library. The protocol uses prefixed-length strings and is completely binary safe. Ref: https://redis.io/docs/management/security/ **XSS Vulnerability** Specially crafted `GET` request parameters handled by any of the following endpoints of `sidekiq-unique-jobs`' "admin" web UI, a...

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N) and the user interaction is required (UI:R). What is the target context of the remote code execution?** An authenticated victim who is connected to the network must be tricked or persuaded to connect to a malicious SQL database using their SQL client application. After the connection is made, the server can send specially crafted replies to the client that exploit the vulnerability and permit execution of arbitrary code within the context of the user's SQL client application.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to prepare the target environment to improve exploit reliability.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. For example, when the score indicates that the **Attack Vector** is **Local** and **User Interaction** is **Required**, this could describe an exploit in which an attacker, through social engineering, convinces a victim to download and open a specially crafted file from a website which leads to a local attack on their computer.
