Former US Army soldier Cameron Wagenius pleads guilty to hacking telecom companies and extorting $1 million+ using cybercrime forums like BreachForums and XSS.
#### Summary An unsafe JavaScript evaluation vulnerability in pyLoad’s CAPTCHA processing code allows **unauthenticated remote attackers** to execute **arbitrary code** in the client browser and potentially the backend server. Exploitation requires no user interaction or authentication and can result in session hijacking, credential theft, and full system rce. #### Details The vulnerable code resides in ```javascript function onCaptchaResult(result) { eval(result); // Direct execution of attacker-controlled input } ``` * The `onCaptchaResult()` function directly passes CAPTCHA results (sent from the user) into `eval()` * No sanitization or validation is performed on this input * A malicious CAPTCHA result can include JavaScript such as `fetch()` or `child_process.exec()` in environments using NodeJS * Attackers can fully hijack sessions and pivot to remote code execution on the server if the environment allows it ### Reproduction Methods 1. **Official Source Installation**:...

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CVSS v4 9.1 ATTENTION: Exploitable remotely/low attack complexity Vendor: Hitachi Energy Equipment: Energy Asset Suite Vulnerabilities: Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs, Plaintext Storage of a Password, Out-of-bounds Write, Release of Invalid Pointer or Reference 2. RISK EVALUATION Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to the target equipment, perform remote code executions, or escalate privileges. 3. TECHNICAL DETAILS 3.1 AFFECTED PRODUCTS Hitachi Energy reports that the following products are affected: Asset Suite AnyWhere for Inventory (AWI) Android mobile app: Versions 11.5 and prior (CVE-2019-9262, CVE-2019-9429, CVE-2019-9256, CVE-2019-9290) Asset Suite 9 series: Version 9.6.4.4 (CVE-2025-1484, CVE-2025-2500) Asset Suite 9 series: Version 9.7 (CVE-2025-2500) 3.2 VULNERABILITY OVERVIEW 3.2.1 INCOMPLETE LIST OF DISALLOWED INPUTS CWE-184 A vulnerability exists in the media upload compon...
### Impact The XHTML syntax depended on the `xdom+xml/current` syntax which allows the creation of raw blocks that permit the insertion of arbitrary HTML content including JavaScript. This allows XSS attacks for users who can edit a document like their user profile (enabled by default). The attack works by setting the document's syntax to `xdom+xml/current` and then inserting content like ``` <document><p><metadata><metadata><entry><string>syntax</string><org.xwiki.rendering.syntax.Syntax><type><name>XHTML</name><id>xhtml</id><variants class="empty-list"></variants></type><version>5</version></org.xwiki.rendering.syntax.Syntax></entry></metadata></metadata></p><rawtext syntax="html/5.0" content="<script>alert(1);</script>"></rawtext></document> ``` This has been fixed by removing the dependency on the `xdom+xml/current` syntax from the XHTML syntax. Note that the `xdom+xml` syntax is still vulnerable to this attack. As it's main purpose is testing and its use is quite diff...
In Roundup before 2.5.0, XSS can occur via interaction between URLs and issue tracker templates (devel and responsive).
## Summary The expression evaluation feature in pdfme 5.2.0 to 5.4.0 contains critical vulnerabilities allowing sandbox escape leading to XSS and prototype pollution attacks. ## Details ### 1. Sandbox Escape Leading to XSS The expression evaluator's sandbox can be bypassed to execute arbitrary JavaScript code. Attackers can obtain the Function constructor through indirect methods: ```javascript // Attack vector 1: Using Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor { ((f, g) => f(g(Object), "constructor").value)(Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor, Object.getPrototypeOf)("alert(location)")() } // Attack vector 2: Using object property access { { f: Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor }.f({ g: Object.getPrototypeOf }.g(Object), "constructor").value("alert(location)")() } ``` Both payloads bypass the sandbox restrictions and execute `Function("alert(location)")()`. ### 2. Prototype Pollution The expression evaluator allows access to prototype accessor methods which can be exploited with Object.assign ...

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CVSS v4 8.7 ATTENTION: Exploitable remotely/low attack complexity Vendor: Advantech Equipment: iView Vulnerabilities: Cross-site Scripting, SQL Injection, Path Traversal, Argument Injection. 2. RISK EVALUATION Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to disclose sensitive information, achieve remote code execution, or cause service disruptions. 3. TECHNICAL DETAILS 3.1 AFFECTED PRODUCTS The following Advantech products are affected: iView: Versions prior to 5.7.05 build 7057 3.2 VULNERABILITY OVERVIEW 3.2.1 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') CWE-79 A vulnerability exists in Advantech iView versions prior to 5.7.05 build 7057, which could allow a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. By exploiting this flaw, an attacker could execute unauthorized scripts in the user's browser, potentially leading to information disclosure or other malicious activities. CVE-2025-53397 h...
Jenkins Applitools Eyes Plugin 1.16.5 and earlier does not escape the Applitools URL on the build page. This results in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers with Item/Configure permission. Applitools Eyes Plugin 1.16.6 rejects Applitools URLs that contain HTML metacharacters.
A vulnerability was found in Cockpit versions up to 2.11.3. This issue affects some unknown processing instances of the file /system/users/save. The manipulation of the arguments "name" or "email" leads to cross-site scripting. The attack may be initiated remotely. Upgrading to version 2.11.4 will address this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure and acted accordingly. A patch and new release were made available very quickly.
### Summary Short descriptions are not properly sanitized by the ShortDescription before being inserted as HTML using `mw.util.addSubtitle`, allowing any user to insert arbitrary HTML into the DOM by editing a page. ### Details The description provided by the user via the `{{SHORTDESC:}}` parser function is insufficiently sanitized by the `sanitize()` function, as html entities are decoded: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-extensions-ShortDescription/blob/7244b1e8b5cb6dbd7e546c5be7fed8a56e33d065/includes/Hooks/ParserHooks.php#L147-L159 Via JS, the short description is then passed to `mw.util.addSubtitle`, which inserts it as raw HTML: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-extensions-ShortDescription/blob/7244b1e8b5cb6dbd7e546c5be7fed8a56e33d065/modules/ext.shortDescription.js#L8 https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/blob/96372101b3c579d9992e8a31a3ccd90a937cac47/resources/src/mediawiki.util/util.js#L552-L563 ### PoC 1.
