Integer overflow or wraparound in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.
**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N), user interaction is required (UI:R), and privileges required are low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploitation of this vulnerability requires an authorized attacker on the domain to wait for a user to initiate a connection to a malicious server that the attacker has set up prior to the user connecting.
Use after free in Microsoft Office PowerPoint allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code locally.
Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Visio allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code locally.
### Impact The blog application in XWiki allowed remote code execution for any user who has edit right on any page. Normally, these are all logged-in users as they can edit their own user profile. To exploit, it is sufficient to add an object of type `Blog.BlogPostClass` to any page and to add some script macro with the exploit code to the "Content" field of that object. ### Patches The vulnerability has been patched in the blog application version 9.14 by executing the content of blog posts with the rights of the appropriate author. ### Workarounds We're not aware of any workarounds. ### Resources * https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/BLOG-191 * https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-blog/commit/b98ab6f17da3029576f42d12b4442cd555c7e0b4
Hackers exploit a Sitecore zero-day (CVE-2025-53690) to deploy WEEPSTEEL Malware via ViewState attacks, enabling Remote Code Execution (RCE).
Cybersecurity never slows down. Every week brings new threats, new vulnerabilities, and new lessons for defenders. For security and IT teams, the challenge is not just keeping up with the news—it’s knowing which risks matter most right now. That’s what this digest is here for: a clear, simple briefing to help you focus where it counts. This week, one story stands out above the rest: the
### Impact **What kind of vulnerability is it?** This is a **Critical** severity directory traversal (path traversal) vulnerability in the `File.download()` method of the `internetarchive` library. **Who is impacted?** All users of the `internetarchive` library versions `< 5.5.1` are impacted. The vulnerability is particularly critical for users on **Windows systems**, but all operating systems are affected. **Description of the vulnerability:** The vulnerability existed because the `file.download()` method did not properly sanitize user-supplied filenames or validate the final download path. A maliciously crafted filename could contain path traversal sequences (e.g., `../../../../windows/system32/file.txt`) or illegal characters that, when processed, would cause the file to be written outside of the intended target directory. **Potential Impact:** An attacker could potentially overwrite critical system files or application configuration files, leading to a denial of service, privil...

The subsequent [`WriteBlob()`](https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick/blob/3fcd081c0278427fc0e8ac40ef75c0a1537792f7/MagickCore/blob.c#L5915-L5938) then expands by **`quantum + length`** (amortized) instead of **`offset + length`**, and copies to `data + offset`. When `offset ≫ extent`, the copy targets memory beyond the allocatio...
