GHSA-859w-5945-r5v3: Vite's server.fs.deny bypassed with /. for files under project root

### Summary The contents of files in [the project `root`](https://vite.dev/config/shared-options.html#root) that are denied by a file matching pattern can be returned to the browser. ### Impact Only apps explicitly exposing the Vite dev server to the network (using --host or [server.host config option](https://vitejs.dev/config/server-options.html#server-host)) are affected. Only files that are under [project `root`](https://vite.dev/config/shared-options.html#root) and are denied by a file matching pattern can be bypassed. - Examples of file matching patterns: `.env`, `.env.*`, `*.{crt,pem}`, `**/.env` - Examples of other patterns: `**/.git/**`, `.git/**`, `.git/**/*` ### Details [`server.fs.deny`](https://vite.dev/config/server-options.html#server-fs-deny) can contain patterns matching against files (by default it includes `.env`, `.env.*`, `*.{crt,pem}` as such patterns). These patterns were able to bypass for files under `root` by using a combination of slash and dot (`/.`). #...

GHSA-8g2j-rhfh-hq3r: org.xwiki.contrib.markdown:syntax-markdown-commonmark12 vulnerable to XSS via Markdown content

### Impact The Markdown syntax is vulnerable to XSS through HTML. In particular, using Markdown syntax, it's possible for any user to embed Javascript code that will then be executed on the browser of any other user visiting either the document or the comment that contains it. In the instance that this code is executed by a user with admins or programming rights, this issue compromises the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the whole XWiki installation. To reproduce, on an instance where the CommonMark Markdown Syntax 1.2 extension is installed, log in as a user without script rights. Edit a document and set its syntax to Markdown. Then , add the content `<script>alert("XSS")</script>` and refresh the page. If an alert appears containing "XSS", then the instance is vulnerable. ### Patches This has been patched in version 8.9 of the CommonMark Markdown Syntax 1.2 extension. ### Workarounds We're not aware of any workaround except upgrading. ### References * https://jira....
