A hacker claims a full breach of Russia’s Max Messenger, threatening to leak user data and backend systems if demands are not met.
## Summary A **path traversal vulnerability** exists in GuardDog's `safe_extract()` function that allows malicious PyPI packages to write arbitrary files outside the intended extraction directory, leading to **Arbitrary File Overwrite** and **Remote Code Execution** on systems running GuardDog. **CWE:** CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory) ## Details ### Vulnerable Code **File:** `guarddog/utils/archives.py` ```python elif zipfile.is_zipfile(source_archive): with zipfile.ZipFile(source_archive, "r") as zip: for file in zip.namelist(): # Note: zip.extract cleans up any malicious file name # such as directory traversal attempts This is not the # case of zipfile.extractall zip.extract(file, path=os.path.join(target_directory, file)) # ❌ VULNERABLE ``` ### Root Cause The comment about `zip.extract()` fooled me at first :) then I noticed the `os.path.join()` call. The vulnerability stems fr...
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a previously undocumented and feature-rich malware framework codenamed VoidLink that's specifically designed for long-term, stealthy access to Linux-based cloud environments According to a new report from Check Point Research, the cloud-native Linux malware framework comprises an array of custom loaders, implants, rootkits, and modular
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has warned of active exploitation of a high-severity security flaw impacting Gogs by adding it to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-8110 (CVSS score: 8.7), relates to a case of path traversal in the repository file editor that could result in code execution. "Gogs Path
A China-nexus threat actor known as UAT-7290 has been attributed to espionage-focused intrusions against entities in South Asia and Southeastern Europe. The activity cluster, which has been active since at least 2022, primarily focuses on extensive technical reconnaissance of target organizations before initiating attacks, ultimately leading to the deployment of malware families such as RushDrop
Talos assesses with high confidence that UAT-7290 is a sophisticated threat actor falling under the China-nexus of advanced persistent threat actors (APTs). UAT-7290 primarily targets telecommunications providers in South Asia.
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of multiple critical-severity security flaws affecting Coolify, an open-source, self-hosting platform, that could result in authentication bypass and remote code execution. The list of vulnerabilities is as follows - CVE-2025-66209 (CVSS score: 10.0) - A command injection vulnerability in the database backup functionality allows any authenticated
# pnpm v10+ Git Dependency Script Execution Bypass ### Summary A security bypass vulnerability in pnpm v10+ allows git-hosted dependencies to execute arbitrary code during `pnpm install`, circumventing the v10 security feature "Dependency lifecycle scripts execution disabled by default". While pnpm v10 blocks `postinstall` scripts via the `onlyBuiltDependencies` mechanism, git dependencies can still execute `prepare`, `prepublish`, and `prepack` scripts during the fetch phase, enabling remote code execution without user consent or approval. ### Details pnpm v10 introduced a security feature to disable dependency lifecycle scripts by default ([PR #8897](https://github.com/pnpm/pnpm/pull/8897)). This is implemented by setting `onlyBuiltDependencies = []` when no build policy is configured: **File:** `pkg-manager/core/src/install/extendInstallOptions.ts` (lines 290-291) ```typescript if (opts.neverBuiltDependencies == null && opts.onlyBuiltDependencies == null && opts.onlyBuiltDepend...
# RustFS Path Traversal Vulnerability ## Vulnerability Details - **CVE ID**: - **Severity**: Critical (CVSS estimated 9.9) - **Impact**: Arbitrary File Read/Write - **Component**: `/rustfs/rpc/read_file_stream` endpoint - **Root Cause**: Insufficient path validation in `crates/ecstore/src/disk/local.rs:1791` ### Vulnerable Code ```rust // local.rs:1791 - No path sanitization! let file_path = volume_dir.join(Path::new(&path)); // DANGEROUS! check_path_length(file_path.to_string_lossy().to_string().as_str())?; // Only checks length let mut f = self.open_file(file_path, O_RDONLY, volume_dir).await?; ``` The code uses `PathBuf::join()` without: - Canonicalization - Path boundary validation - Protection against `../` sequences - Protection against absolute paths ## Proof of Concept ### Test Environment - **Target**: RustFS v0.0.5 (Docker container) - **Endpoint**: `http://localhost:9000/rustfs/rpc/read_file_stream` - **RPC Secret**: `rustfsadmin` (from RUSTFS_SECRET_KEY) - **Disk I...
Non-human employees are becoming the future of cybersecurity, and enterprises need to prepare accordingly. As organizations scale Artificial Intelligence (AI) and cloud automation, there is exponential growth in Non-Human Identities (NHIs), including bots, AI agents, service accounts and automation scripts. In fact, 51% of respondents in ConductorOne’s 2025 Future of Identity Security Report
