GHSA-pg75-v6fp-8q59: Keylime's registrar vulnerable to Denial-of-service attack via a single open connection

### Impact Keylime `registrar` is prone to a simple denial of service attack in which an adversary opens a connection to the TLS port (by default, port `8891`) blocking further, legitimate connections. As long as the connection is open, the `registrar` is blocked and cannot serve any further clients (`agents` and `tenants`), which prevents normal operation. The problem does not affect the `verifier`. ### Patches Users should upgrade to release 7.4.0

GHSA-8hx6-qv6f-xgcw: MindsDB 'Call to requests with verify=False disabling SSL certificate checks, security issue.' issue

### Summary Found an issue: Call to requests with verify=False disabling SSL certificate checks, security issue. Make the impact and severity as straightforward as possible. This rule enforces always verifying SSL certificates for methods in the Requests library. Certificates are validated by default which is the desired behavior. Encryption in general is typically critical to the security of many applications. Using TLS can significantly increase security by guaranteeing the identity of the party you are communicating with. This is accomplished by one or both parties presenting trusted certificates during the connection initialization phase of TLS. It is important to note that modules such as httplib within the Python standard library did not verify certificate chains until it was fixed in 2.7.9 release. ### Details Severity: Critical

China's APT31 Suspected in Attacks on Air-Gapped Systems in Eastern Europe

A nation-state actor with links to China is suspected of being behind a series of attacks against industrial organizations in Eastern Europe that took place last year to siphon data stored on air-gapped systems. Cybersecurity company Kaspersky attributed the intrusions with medium to high confidence to a hacking crew called APT31, which is also tracked under the monikers Bronze Vinewood,

GHSA-p6hw-wm59-3g5g: Sydent does not verify email server certificates

## Impact If configured to send emails using TLS, Sydent does not verify SMTP servers' certificates. This makes Sydent's emails vulnerable to interception via a [man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-in-the-middle_attack). Attackers with privileged access to the network can intercept room invitations and address confirmation emails. CVSS 3.1 overall score: 3.3 - [AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N/CR:L/IR:L/AR:X/MAV:A/MAC:H/MPR:N/MUI:N/MS:C/MC:L/MI:L/MA:N](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln-metrics/cvss/v3-calculator?vector=AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N/CR:L/IR:L/AR:X/MAV:A/MAC:H/MPR:N/MUI:N/MS:C/MC:L/MI:L/MA:N&version=3.1) _Reported by Martin Schobert, [Pentagrid AG](https://pentagrid.ch/)._ ### Details Sydent can be configured to send emails over a TLS-encrypted socket by setting ```yaml email: tlsmode: "TLS" # or the legacy value "SSL" ``` in its config file. Alternatively it can be configured to use [Opportunistic TLS](https://en.wikipedia.or...

GHSA-779w-xvpm-78jx: twitch-tui's connection is not encrypted

### Summary The connection is not using TLS for communication ### Details In the configuration of the irc connection, [you are disabling tls](https://github.com/Xithrius/twitch-tui/blob/340afc3c8c07a83289fe6ef614aa7563c8b70756/src/twitch/connection.rs#L23) which makes all communication to twitch irc servers unencrypted. ### PoC You can verify by using tcpdump/wireshark that traffic is unencrypted. ### Impact Communication can be sniffed, even auth tokens.

Rudder Server SQL Injection / Remote Code Execution

This Metasploit module exploits a SQL injection vulnerability in RudderStack's rudder-server, an open source Customer Data Platform (CDP). The vulnerability exists in versions of rudder-server prior to 1.3.0-rc.1. By exploiting this flaw, an attacker can execute arbitrary SQL commands, which may lead to remote code execution due to the rudder role in PostgreSQL having superuser permissions by default.
