A recently patched security flaw in Microsoft Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) has been exploited by threat actors to distribute malware known as ShadowPad. "The attacker targeted Windows Servers with WSUS enabled, exploiting CVE-2025-59287 for initial access," AhnLab Security Intelligence Center (ASEC) said in a report published last week. "They then used PowerCat, an open-source

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Friday added a critical security flaw impacting Oracle Identity Manager to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, citing evidence of active exploitation. The vulnerability in question is CVE-2025-61757 (CVSS score: 9.8), a case of missing authentication for a critical function that can result in pre-authenticated

## Summary Segmentation fault in `mlx::core::load_gguf()` when loading malicious GGUF files. Untrusted pointer from external gguflib library is dereferenced without validation, causing application crash. Environment: - OS: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS - Compiler: Clang 19.1.7 ## Vulnerability **Location**: `mlx/io/gguf.cpp` - Function `extract_tensor_data()` at lines 59-79 - Vulnerable memcpy at lines 64-67 - Called from `load_arrays()` at line 177 **The Bug**: ```cpp std::tuple<allocator::Buffer, Dtype> extract_tensor_data(gguf_tensor* tensor) { std::optional<Dtype> equivalent_dtype = gguf_type_to_dtype(tensor->type); if (equivalent_dtype.has_value()) { allocator::Buffer buffer = allocator::malloc(tensor->bsize); memcpy( buffer.raw_ptr(), tensor->weights_data, // untrusted pointer from gguflib tensor->num_weights * equivalent_dtype.value().size()); return {buffer, equivalent_dtype.value()}; } // ... } ``` ## Possible Fix ```cpp std::tuple<allo...

## Summary Heap buffer overflow in `mlx::core::load()` when parsing malicious NumPy `.npy` files. Attacker-controlled file causes 13-byte out-of-bounds read, leading to crash or information disclosure. Environment: - OS: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS - Compiler: Clang 19.1.7 ## Vulnerability The parser reads a 118-byte header from the file, but line 268 uses `std::string(&buffer[0])` which stops at the first null byte, creating a 20-byte string instead. Then line 276 tries to read `header[34]` without checking the length first, reading 13 bytes past the allocation. **Location**: `mlx/io/load.cpp:268,276` **Bug #1** (line 268): ```cpp std::string header(&buffer[0]); // stops at first null byte ``` **Bug #2** (line 276): ```cpp bool col_contiguous = header[34] == 'T'; // No bounds check ``` ## Possible Fix ```cpp // Line 268 std::string header(&buffer[0], header_len); // Line 276 if (header.length() < 35) throw std::runtime_error("Malformed header"); ``` ## PoC ```bash pip install mlx...

Grafana has released security updates to address a maximum severity security flaw that could allow privilege escalation or user impersonation under certain configurations. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-41115, carries a CVSS score of 10.0. It resides in the System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) component that allows automated user provisioning and management. First

SCIM provisioning was introduced in Grafana Enterprise and Grafana Cloud in April to improve how organizations manage users and teams in Grafana by introducing automated user lifecycle management. In Grafana versions 12.x where SCIM provisioning is enabled and configured, a vulnerability in user identity handling allows a malicious or compromised SCIM client to provision a user with a numeric externalId, which in turn could allow to override internal user IDs and lead to impersonation or privilege escalation. This vulnerability applies only if all of the following conditions are met: - `enableSCIM` feature flag set to true - `user_sync_enabled` config option in the `[auth.scim]` block set to true

Vault’s Terraform Provider incorrectly set the default deny_null_bind parameter for the LDAP auth method to false by default, potentially resulting in an insecure configuration. If the underlying LDAP server allowed anonymous or unauthenticated binds, this could result in authentication bypass. This vulnerability, CVE-2025-13357, is fixed in Vault Terraform Provider v5.5.0.

In a surprise move, Google on Thursday announced that it has updated Quick Share, its peer-to-peer file transfer service, to work with Apple's equipment AirDrop, allowing users to more easily share files and photos between Android and iPhone devices. The cross-platform sharing feature is currently limited to the Pixel 10 lineup and works with iPhone, iPad, and macOS devices, with plans to expand
