Barts Health NHS confirms Cl0p ransomware breach via Oracle flaw. Invoice data exposed. Patient records and clinical systems remain unaffected.

Over 30 security vulnerabilities have been disclosed in various artificial intelligence (AI)-powered Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) that combine prompt injection primitives with legitimate features to achieve data exfiltration and remote code execution. The security shortcomings have been collectively named IDEsaster by security researcher Ari Marzouk (MaccariTA). They affect popular

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Friday formally added a critical security flaw impacting React Server Components (RSC) to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog following reports of active exploitation in the wild. The vulnerability, CVE-2025-55182 (CVSS score: 10.0), relates to a case of remote code execution that could be triggered by an

### Summary Insufficient clearing of the output buffer in Java-based decompressor implementations in lz4-java 1.10.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to read previous buffer contents via crafted compressed input. In applications where the output buffer is reused without being cleared, this may lead to disclosure of sensitive data. JNI-based implementations are *not* affected. ### Details During the decompression process, the lz4 algorithm may have to repeat data that was previously decompressed in the same input frame. In the Java implementation, this is implemented by copy operations within the output buffer. With a crafted input, an attacker may induce the Java implementation to copy from a region in the output buffer that does not contain decompressed data yet. If that region contains sensitive information because the output buffer was not cleared prior to decompression, that data will then be copied to the decompressed output. - `LZ4Factory.nativeInstance().safeDecompresso...

### Impact **Excessive memory allocation** Function [api.ParseJSONRequest](https://github.com/sigstore/timestamp-authority/blob/26d7d426d3000abdbdf2df34de56bb92246c0365/pkg/api/timestamp.go#L63) currently splits (via a call to [strings.Split](https://pkg.go.dev/strings#Split)) an optionally-provided OID (which is untrusted data) on periods. Similarly, function [api.getContentType](https://github.com/sigstore/timestamp-authority/blob/26d7d426d3000abdbdf2df34de56bb92246c0365/pkg/api/timestamp.go#L114) splits the `Content-Type` header (which is also untrusted data) on an `application` string. As a result, in the face of a malicious request with either an excessively long OID in the payload containing many period characters or a malformed `Content-Type` header, a call to `api.ParseJSONRequest` or `api.getContentType` incurs allocations of O(n) bytes (where n stands for the length of the function's argument). Relevant weakness: [CWE-405: Asymmetric Resource Consumption (Amplification)](h...

Function [identity.extractIssuerURL](https://github.com/sigstore/fulcio/blob/main/pkg/identity/issuerpool.go#L44-L45) currently splits (via a call to [strings.Split](https://pkg.go.dev/strings#Split)) its argument (which is untrusted data) on periods. As a result, in the face of a malicious request with an (invalid) OIDC identity token in the payload containing many period characters, a call to `extractIssuerURL` incurs allocations to the tune of O(n) bytes (where n stands for the length of the function's argument), with a constant factor of about 16. Relevant weakness: [CWE-405: Asymmetric Resource Consumption (Amplification)](https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/405.html) Details See [identity.extractIssuerURL](https://github.com/sigstore/fulcio/blob/main/pkg/identity/issuerpool.go#L44-L45) Impact Excessive memory allocation

### Summary Envoy’s mTLS certificate matcher for `match_typed_subject_alt_names` may incorrectly treat certificates containing an embedded null byte (\0) inside an `OTHERNAME` SAN value as valid matches. ### Details This occurs when the SAN is encoded as a `BMPSTRING` or `UNIVERSALSTRING`, and its UTF-8 conversion result is truncated at the first null byte during string assignment. As a result, `"victim\0evil"` may match an exact: `"victim"` rule and be accepted by Envoy. ### PoC Create a CA and a server certificate signed by that CA. Create two client certificates signed by the same CA: client_evil with OTHERNAME BMPSTRING = "evil" client_null with OTHERNAME BMPSTRING = "victim\0evil" Configure Envoy with require_client_certificate: true and a match_typed_subject_alt_names entry for the OTHERNAME OID with matcher.exact: "victim". Connect without a client cert → connection rejected. Connect with client_evil → connection rejected. Connect with client_null → connection accepted (but s...

A new agentic browser attack targeting Perplexity's Comet browser that's capable of turning a seemingly innocuous email into a destructive action that wipes a user's entire Google Drive contents, findings from Straiker STAR Labs show. The zero-click Google Drive Wiper technique hinges on connecting the browser to services like Gmail and Google Drive to automate routine tasks by granting them

A critical security flaw has been disclosed in Apache Tika that could result in an XML external entity (XXE) injection attack. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-66516, is rated 10.0 on the CVSS scoring scale, indicating maximum severity. "Critical XXE in Apache Tika tika-core (1.13-3.2.1), tika-pdf-module (2.0.0-3.2.1) and tika-parsers (1.13-1.28.5) modules on all platforms allows an
