The ABB Cylon ASPECT system contains an unauthenticated information disclosure vulnerability in the pupDumpStats.php script. When this endpoint is accessed, it triggers the download of a sensitive debug file located at /usr/local/aam/var/pupdbg.dump. This file may contain internal system information, including protocol states, transaction logs, and system mappings. The vulnerability arises from an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) issue, where the script does not validate or authenticate the requester before allowing access to the debug file. Exploiting this flaw enables an attacker to retrieve sensitive operational data, potentially aiding in further exploitation of the system.

There is a possible Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the `content_security_policy` helper in Action Pack. Impact ------ Applications which set Content-Security-Policy (CSP) headers dynamically from untrusted user input may be vulnerable to carefully crafted inputs being able to inject new directives into the CSP. This could lead to a bypass of the CSP and its protection against XSS and other attacks. Releases -------- The fixed releases are available at the normal locations. Workarounds ----------- Applications can avoid setting CSP headers dynamically from untrusted input, or can validate/sanitize that input.
