Adam Griffin is still in disbelief over how quickly he was robbed of nearly $500,000 in cryptocurrencies. A scammer called using a real Google phone number to warn his Gmail account was being hacked, sent email security alerts directly from google.com, and ultimately seized control over the account by convincing him to click "yes" to a Google prompt on his mobile device.

Androxgh0st, a botnet targeting web servers since January 2024, is also deploying IoT-focused Mozi payloads, reveals CloudSEK’s latest research.

Versions of the package unisharp/laravel-filemanager before 2.9.1 are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE) through using a valid mimetype and inserting the . character after the php file extension. This allows the attacker to execute malicious code.

Versions of the package bun before 1.1.30 are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution due to improper input sanitization. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability through Bun's APIs that accept objects.

Versions of the package spatie/browsershot before 5.0.2 are vulnerable to Directory Traversal due to URI normalisation in the browser where the file:// check can be bypassed with file:\\. An attacker could read any file on the server by exploiting the normalization of \ into /.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the edit Service Access Policy page in Liferay Portal 7.0.0 through 7.4.3.87, and Liferay DXP 7.4 GA through update 87, 7.3 GA through update 29, and older unsupported versions allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted payload injected into a service access policy's `Service Class` text field.

A vulnerability has been discovered that could allow an attacker to acquire disk access with privileges equivalent to those of pghoard, allowing for unintended path traversal. Depending on the permissions/privileges assigned to pghoard, this could allow disclosure of sensitive information.

Reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Liferay Portal 7.1.0 through 7.4.3.38, and Liferay DXP 7.4 GA through update 38, 7.3 GA through update 36, 7.2 GA through fix pack 20 and 7.1 GA through fix pack 28 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary web script or HTML via Dispatch name field

An issue was discovered where improper authorization controls affected certain queries that could allow a malicious actor to circumvent Document Level Security in Elasticsearch and get access to documents that their roles would normally not allow.

The cyberattack impacts at least 1.4 million patients, as tranches of highly sensitive personal, medical, and financial data fall into the hands of cyber crooks who have everything they need to carry out convincing social engineering and fraud attacks.
