Protection mechanism failure in Windows Mark of the Web (MOTW) allows an unauthorized attacker to bypass a security feature over a network.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. For example, when the score indicates that the **Attack Vector** is **Local** and **User Interaction** is **Required**, this could describe an exploit in which an attacker, through social engineering, convinces a victim to download and open a specially crafted file from a website which leads to a local attack on their computer.

A new Neptune RAT variant is being shared via YouTube and Telegram, targeting Windows users to steal passwords and deliver additional malware components.

The broadcast channel internally calls `clone` on the stored value when receiving it, and only requires `T:Send`. This means that using the broadcast channel with values that are `Send` but not `Sync` can trigger unsoundness if the `clone` implementation makes use of the value being `!Sync`. Thank you to Austin Bonander for finding and reporting this issue.

### Summary Using timeit.timeit() function, which is a built-in python library function to execute remote pickle file. ### Details Pickle’s deserialization process is known to allow execution of function via reduce method. While Picklescan is meant to detect such exploits, this attack evades detection by calling built-in python library function like **timeit.timeit()**. And since timeit library wasn't inside unsafe globals blacklist, it may not raise red flag in the security scan. The attack payload executes in the following steps: First, the attacker craft the payload by calling to **timeit.timeit()** function from timeit library in __reduce__ method Then, inside reduce method, the attacker import dangerous libarary like os and calling **os.system()** to run OS commands, for example: curl command. And then the attacker send this malicious pickle file to the victim. Then when the victim after checking whether the pickle file is safe by using Picklescan library and this library doesn...

### Impact When generating an ESTree from a value with a property named `__proto__`, `valueToEstree` would generate an object that specifies a prototype instead. Example: ```js import { generate } from 'astring' import { valueToEstree } from 'estree-util-value-to-estree' const estree = valueToEstree({ ['__proto__']: {} }) const code = generate(estree) console.log(code) ``` Output: ```js { "__proto__": {} } ``` ### Patches This was fixed in version [3.3.3](https://github.com/remcohaszing/estree-util-value-to-estree/releases/tag/v3.3.3). ### Workarounds If you control the input, don’t specify a property named `__proto__`. If you don’t control the output, strip any properties named `__proto__` before passing it to `valueToEstree`.
