Grafana is an open-source platform for monitoring and observability. The Infinity datasource plugin, maintained by Grafana Labs, allows visualizing data from JSON, CSV, XML, GraphQL, and HTML endpoints. If the plugin was configured to allow only certain URLs, an attacker could bypass this restriction using a specially crafted URL. This vulnerability is fixed in version 3.4.1.

Last year, we announced the largest hacking event in history: Zero Day Quest, with up to $4 million in bounty awards. The response from the global security community was incredible and helped improve security for our customers and partners. This year, Zero Day Quest is back with even more potential bounty awards: up to $5 million total for high-impact research in Cloud and AI security.

## Summary A critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability was discovered in the `@nestjs/devtools-integration` package. When enabled, the package exposes a local development HTTP server with an API endpoint that uses an unsafe JavaScript sandbox (`safe-eval`-like implementation). Due to improper sandboxing and missing cross-origin protections, any malicious website visited by a developer can execute arbitrary code on their local machine. A full blog post about how this vulnerability was uncovered can be found on [Socket's blog](https://socket.dev/blog/nestjs-rce-vuln). ## Details The `@nestjs/devtools-integration` package adds HTTP endpoints to a locally running NestJS development server. One of these endpoints, `/inspector/graph/interact`, accepts JSON input containing a `code` field and executes the provided code in a Node.js `vm.runInNewContext` sandbox. Key issues: 1. **Unsafe Sandbox:** The sandbox implementation closely resembles the abandoned `safe-eval` library. The No...
