### Summary The `EMOJI_REGEX` used in the `emoji` action is vulnerable to a Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) attack. A short, maliciously crafted string (e.g., <100 characters) can cause the regex engine to consume excessive CPU time (minutes), leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) for the application. ### Details The ReDoS vulnerability stems from "catastrophic backtracking" in the `EMOJI_REGEX`. This is caused by ambiguity in the regex pattern due to overlapping character classes. Specifically, the class `\p{Emoji_Presentation}` overlaps with more specific classes used in the same alternation, such as `[\u{1F1E6}-\u{1F1FF}]` (regional indicator symbols used for flags) and `\p{Emoji_Modifier_Base}`. When the regex engine attempts to match a string that almost matches but ultimately fails (like the one in the PoC), this ambiguity forces it to explore an exponential number of possible paths. The matching time increases exponentially with the length of the crafted input, ...

Cisco Talos’ Vulnerability Discovery & Research team recently disclosed five vulnerabilities in Dell ControlVault 3 firmware and its associated Windows software, four vulnerabilities in Entr'ouvert Lasso, and one vulnerability in GL.iNet Slate AX. The vulnerabilities mentioned in this blog post have been patched by their respective

The second wave of the Shai-Hulud supply chain attack has spilled over to the Maven ecosystem after compromising more than 830 packages in the npm registry. The Socket Research Team said it identified a Maven Central package named org.mvnpm:posthog-node:4.18.1 that embeds the same two components associated with Sha1-Hulud: the "setup_bun.js" loader and the main payload "bun_environment.js."

A prolific cybercriminal group that calls itself "Scattered LAPSUS$ Hunters" made headlines regularly this year by stealing data from and publicly mass extorting dozens of major corporations. But the tables seem to have turned somewhat for "Rey," the moniker chosen by the technical operator and public face of the hacker group: Earlier this week, Rey confirmed his real life identity and agreed to an interview after KrebsOnSecurity tracked him down and contacted his father.

Scammers are using fake jobs and a phony video update to infect Mac users with a multi-stage stealer designed for long-term access and data theft.

Samourai Wallet founders Keonne Rodriguez and William Hill were sentenced to 4 and 5 years for laundering $237M via their crypto mixer.

About SQL Injection – Django (CVE-2025-64459) vulnerability. Django is a free and open-source high-level Python web framework. The vulnerability allows attackers to manipulate database query logic by injecting internal query parameters (_connector and _negated) when applications pass user-controlled input directly into filter(), exclude(), or get() calls. Exploiting this SQL injection may lead to unauthorized access […]

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a new malicious extension on the Chrome Web Store that's capable of injecting a stealthy Solana transfer into a swap transaction and transferring the funds to an attacker-controlled cryptocurrency wallet. The extension, named Crypto Copilot, was first published by a user named "sjclark76" on May 7, 2024. The developer describes the browser add-on as

If you're using community tools like Chocolatey or Winget to keep systems updated, you're not alone. These platforms are fast, flexible, and easy to work with—making them favorites for IT teams. But there’s a catch... The very tools that make your job easier might also be the reason your systems are at risk. These tools are run by the community. That means anyone can add or update packages. Some

SQL injection vulnerability in Hive Metastore Server (HMS) when processing delete column statistics requests via the Thrift APIs. The vulnerability is only exploitable by trusted/authorized users/applications that are allowed to call directly the Thrift APIs. In most real-world deployments, HMS is accessible to only a handful of applications (e.g., Hiveserver2) thus the vulnerability is not exploitable. Moreover, the vulnerable code cannot be reached when metastore.try.direct.sql property is set to false. This issue affects Apache Hive: from 4.1.0 before 4.2.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.2.0, which fixes the issue. Users who cannot upgrade directly are encouraged to set metastore.try.direct.sql property to false if the HMS Thrift APIs are exposed to general public.
