President Trump last week revoked security clearances for Chris Krebs, the former director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) who was fired by Trump after declaring the 2020 election the most secure in U.S. history. The White House memo, which also suspended clearances for other security professionals at Krebs's employer SentinelOne, comes as CISA is facing huge funding and staffing cuts.

### Impact The confirmation flow for account creation currently uses a GET request triggered by clicking a link sent via email. Some email clients and security tools (e.g., Outlook, virus scanners, and email previewers) may automatically follow these links, unintentionally confirming the account. This allows an attacker to register an account using another user’s email and potentially have it auto-confirmed by the victim’s email client. This does not allow attackers to take over or access existing accounts or private data. It is limited to account confirmation of new accounts only. ### Patches A mitigation has been released in version `4.7.0`. You will also need to upgrade to `2.6.0` or later of `ash_authentication_phoenix` to take advantage of the autogenerated views for confirmation. The fix updates the confirmation flow to require explicit user interaction (such as clicking a button on the confirmation page) rather than performing the confirmation via a GET request. This ensures ...

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, has been found in joelittlejohn jsonschema2pojo 1.2.2. This issue affects the function apply of the file org/jsonschema2pojo/rules/SchemaRule.java of the component JSON File Handler. The manipulation leads to stack-based buffer overflow. Attacking locally is a requirement. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

NVIDIA's incomplete security patch, combined with a Docker vulnerability, creates a serious threat for organizations using containerized environments. This article explains the risks and mitigation strategies.

### Summary Unsanitized search param names cause XSS vulnerability. You are affected if you iterate over all entries of `event.url.searchParams` inside a server `load` function. Attackers can exploit it by crafting a malicious URL and getting a user to click a link with said URL. ### Details SvelteKit tracks which parameters in `event.url.searchParams` are read inside server `load` functions. If the application iterates over the these parameters, the `uses.search_params` array included in the boot script (embedded in the server-rendered HTML) will have any search param name included in unsanitized form. `packages/kit/src/runtime/server/utils.js:150` has the `stringify_uses(node)` function which prints these out. ### Reproduction In a `+page.server.js` or `+layout.server.js`: ```js /** @type {import('@sveltejs/kit').Load} */ export function load(event) { const values = {}; for (const key of event.url.searchParams.keys()) { values[key] = event.url.searchParams.get(key); ...

DevDojo Voyager 1.4.0 through 1.8.0, when Laravel 8 or later is used, allows authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary OS commands via a specific php artisan command.

### Impact Hook scripts in pleezer can be triggered by various events like track changes and playback state changes. In affected versions, these scripts were spawned without proper process cleanup, leaving zombie processes in the system's process table. Even during normal usage, every track change and playback event would leave behind zombie processes. This leads to inevitable resource exhaustion over time as the system's process table fills up, eventually preventing new processes from being created. The issue is exacerbated if events occur rapidly, whether through normal use (e.g., skipping through a playlist) or potential manipulation of the Deezer Connect protocol traffic. This vulnerability affects all users who have configured hook scripts using the `--hook` option. ### Patches This issue has been fixed in version 0.16.0. Users should upgrade to this version, which properly manages child processes using asynchronous process handling and cleanup. ### Workarounds Users who canno...

### Summary: A user with permission to create/modify EventSource and Sensor custom resources can gain privileged access to the host system and cluster, even without having direct administrative privileges. ### Details: The `EventSource` and `Sensor` CRs allow the corresponding orchestrated pod to be customized with `spec.template` and `spec.template.container` (with type `k8s.io/api/core/v1.Container`), thus, any specification under `container` such as `command`, `args`, `securityContext `, `volumeMount` can be specified, and applied to the EventSource or Sensor pod due to the code logic below. ```golang if args.EventSource.Spec.Template != nil && args.EventSource.Spec.Template.Container != nil { if err := mergo.Merge(&eventSourceContainer, args.EventSource.Spec.Template.Container, mergo.WithOverride); err != nil { return nil, err } } ``` With these, A user would be able to gain privileged access to the cluster host, if he/she specified the Even...

A threat actor posted about the zero-day exploit on the same day that Fortinet published a warning about known vulnerabilities under active exploitation.

Mattermost versions 10.5.x <= 10.5.1, 10.4.x <= 10.4.3, 9.11.x <= 9.11.9 fail to invalidate the cache when a user account is converted to a bot which allows an attacker to login to the bot exactly one time via normal credentials.
