## Summary `jsii` is a TypeScript to JavaScript compiler that also extracts an interface definition manifest to generate RPC stubs in various programming languages. jsii is typically used as a command-line tool, but it can also be loaded as a library. When loaded as a library into a larger application, prototype pollution may happen if untrusted user input is passed to the library. When used as a command line-tool, this pollution cannot occur. ## Impact You may be impacted if you have written an application that loads jsii as a library, and passes untrusted user input into the `jsii.configureCategories()` function. In that case, a user can craft input in such a way that, following the invocation, a field named "category" with a user-controlled value is added to the JavaScript Object prototype. This will cause every object in the program (both new and existing) to have a field named "category", even if it shouldn't. **This will not affect jsii itself, but it might affect the applic...
Incorrect Implementation of Authentication Algorithm in Apache Kafka's SCRAM implementation. Issue Summary: Apache Kafka's implementation of the Salted Challenge Response Authentication Mechanism (SCRAM) did not fully adhere to the requirements of RFC 5802 [1]. Specifically, as per RFC 5802, the server must verify that the nonce sent by the client in the second message matches the nonce sent by the server in its first message. However, Kafka's SCRAM implementation did not perform this validation. Impact: This vulnerability is exploitable only when an attacker has plaintext access to the SCRAM authentication exchange. However, the usage of SCRAM over plaintext is strongly discouraged as it is considered an insecure practice [2]. Apache Kafka recommends deploying SCRAM exclusively with TLS encryption to protect SCRAM exchanges from interception [3]. Deployments using SCRAM with TLS are not affected by this issue. How to Detect If You Are Impacted: If your deployment uses SCRAM authent...

### Summary A bug in Astro’s CSRF-protection middleware allows requests to bypass CSRF checks. ### Details When the `security.checkOrigin` configuration option is set to `true`, Astro middleware will perform a CSRF check. (Source code: https://github.com/withastro/astro/blob/6031962ab5f56457de986eb82bd24807e926ba1b/packages/astro/src/core/app/middlewares.ts) For example, with the following Astro configuration: ```js // astro.config.mjs import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config'; import node from '@astrojs/node'; export default defineConfig({ output: 'server', security: { checkOrigin: true }, adapter: node({ mode: 'standalone' }), }); ``` A request like the following would be blocked if made from a different origin: ```js // fetch API or <form action="https://test.example.com/" method="POST"> fetch('https://test.example.com/', { method: 'POST', credentials: 'include', body: 'a=b', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' }, }); // => Cross-site POST...

The Russian-based attack group uses legitimate red-team tools, 200 domain names, and 34 back-end RDP servers, making it harder to identify and block malicious activity.
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed a new phishing campaign that has targeted European companies with an aim to harvest account credentials and take control of the victims' Microsoft Azure cloud infrastructure. The campaign has been codenamed HubPhish by Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 owing to the abuse of HubSpot tools in the attack chain. Targets include at least 20,000 automotive, chemical,

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.
