## Summary An unauthenticated Local File Inclusion exists in the template-switching feature: if `templateselection` is enabled in the configuration, the server trusts the `template` cookie and includes the referenced PHP file. An attacker can read sensitive data or, if they manage to drop a PHP file elsewhere, gain RCE. ## Affected versions PrivateBin versions since 1.7.7. ## Conditions - `templateselection` got enabled in `cfg/conf.php` - Visitor sets a cookie `template` pointing to an existing PHP file without it's suffix, using a path relative to the `tpl` folder. Absolute paths do not work. ## Impact The constructed path of the template file is checked for existence, then included. For PrivateBin project files this does not leak any secrets due to data files being created with PHP code that prevents execution, but if a configuration file without that line got created or the visitor figures out the relative path to a PHP script that directly performs an action without appropr...

A new US law enforcement initiative is aimed at crypto fraudsters targeting Americans—and now seeks to seize infrastructure it claims is crucial to notorious scam compounds.

November Microsoft Patch Tuesday. A total of 65 vulnerabilities. I’m not comparing this with the October report because I’ve decided to cover only MSPT-day vulnerabilities. The thing is, Microsoft has started massively adding Linux-product vulnerabilities to their official website, and these clutter the “extended” MSPT reports. 🤷‍♂️ There is one vulnerability with evidence of in-the-wild […]

The North Korean threat actors behind the Contagious Interview campaign have once again tweaked their tactics by using JSON storage services to stage malicious payloads. "The threat actors have recently resorted to utilizing JSON storage services like JSON Keeper, JSONsilo, and npoint.io to host and deliver malware from trojanized code projects, with the lure," NVISO researchers Bart Parys, Stef

Amazon Web Services VP Sara Duffer highlights the top lessons she brought back to her security role after taking part in Amazon's shadow program.

Mattermost versions < 11 fail to enforce multi-factor authentication on WebSocket connections which allows unauthenticated users to access sensitive information via WebSocket events.

Cybersecurity researchers are sounding the alert about an authentication bypass vulnerability in Fortinet Fortiweb WAF that could allow an attacker to take over admin accounts and completely compromise a device. "The watchTowr team is seeing active, indiscriminate in-the-wild exploitation of what appears to be a silently patched vulnerability in Fortinet's FortiWeb product," Benjamin Harris,

### Impact The prosemirror_to_html gem is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks through malicious HTML attribute values. While tag content is properly escaped, attribute values are not, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript code. **Who is impacted:** - Any application using prosemirror_to_html to convert ProseMirror documents to HTML - Applications that process user-generated ProseMirror content are at highest risk - End users viewing the rendered HTML output could have malicious JavaScript executed in their browsers **Attack vectors include:** - `href` attributes with `javascript:` protocol: `<a href="javascript:alert(document.cookie)">` - Event handlers: `<div onclick="maliciousCode()">` - `onerror` attributes on images: `<img src=x onerror="alert('XSS')">` - Other HTML attributes that can execute JavaScript ### Patches A fix is currently in development. Users should upgrade to version **0.2.1** or later once released. The patch escapes all HTML attrib...
