### Impact cert-manager packages which call the standard library `pem.Decode()` function can take a long time to process specially crafted invalid PEM data. If an attacker is able to modify PEM data which cert-manager reads (e.g. in a Secret resource), they may be able to use large amounts of CPU in the cert-manager controller pod to effectively create a denial-of-service (DoS) vector for cert-manager in the cluster. Secrets are limited in size to [1MiB](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/#restriction-data-size), which reduces the impact of this issue; it was discovered through an ~856kB fuzz test input which causes `pem.Decode` to take roughly 750ms to reject the input on an M2 Max Macbook Pro. By way of comparison, a valid PEM-encoded 4096-bit RSA key takes roughly 70µs to parse on the same machine. Given the required size of PEM data needed to present a realistic DoS vector, an attacker would need to create or insert many different large sized resources in...

In US Senate testimony, a CrowdStrike exec explained how this advanced persistent threat penetrated telcos in Asia and Africa, gathering SMS messages, unique identifiers, and other metadata along the way.

### Impact A vulnerability has been identified within Rancher Manager whereby applications installed via Rancher Manager Apps Catalog store their Helm values directly into the `Apps` Custom Resource Definition, resulting in any users with `GET` access to it to be able to read any sensitive information that are contained within the Apps’ values. Additionally, the same information leaks into auditing logs when the audit level is set to equal or above 2. Application charts without sensitive data are not affected by this vulnerability. This vulnerability impacts any Helm applications installed on a Rancher Manager cluster, regardless of it being installed via the Marketplace or using the helm cli. Please consult the associated [MITRE ATT&CK - Technique - Exploitation for Privilege Escalation](https://attack.mitre.org/techniques/T1068/) for further information about this category of attack. ### Patches Patched versions include Rancher Manager `2.9.5` and `2.8.10`. The fix ensures that al...

### Impact Password Pusher comes with a configurable rate limiter. In versions prior to [v1.49.0](https://github.com/pglombardo/PasswordPusher/releases/tag/v1.49.0), the rate limiter could be bypassed by forging proxy headers allowing bad actors to send unlimited traffic to the site potentially causing a denial of service. ### Patches In [v1.49.0](https://github.com/pglombardo/PasswordPusher/releases/tag/v1.49.0), a fix was implemented to only authorize proxies on local IPs which resolves this issue. If you are running a remote proxy, please see [this documentation](https://docs.pwpush.com/docs/proxies/#trusted-proxies) on how to authorize the IP address of your remote proxy. ### Workarounds It is highly suggested to upgrade to at least [v1.49.0](https://github.com/pglombardo/PasswordPusher/releases/tag/v1.49.0) to mitigate this risk. If for some reason you cannot immediately upgrade, the alternative is that you can add rules to your proxy and/or firewall to not accept externa...

Name: ASA-2024-010: Mismatched bit-length in `sdk.Int` and `sdk.Dec` can lead to panic Component: Cosmos SDK / Math Criticality: High (Considerable Impact, and Possible Likelihood per [ACMv1.2](https://github.com/interchainio/security/blob/main/resources/CLASSIFICATION_MATRIX.md)) Affected versions: `cosmossdk.io/math` package versions <= `math/v1.3.0` Affected users: Chain Builders + Maintainers, Validators ### Impact The bit-length in `sdk.Int` and `sdk.Dec` are not aligned, which may present a possible panic condition when interacting with `Dec` types in an `Int` context. This issue was resolved by aligning the max size between the data types in the cosmossdk.io/math package. This issue impacts consumers of the cosmossdk.io/math, which includes popular modules including IBC-Go and tokenfactory (permissionless). If your chain interacts with APIs in the cosmossdk.io/math package, or utilizes a module that consumes this library, it is advised to update to the latest version at the ...

### Impact A vulnerability has been discovered in Steve API (Kubernetes API Translator) in which users can watch resources they are not allowed to access, when they have at least some generic permissions on the type. For example, a user who can get a single secret in a single namespace can get all secrets in every namespace. During a `watch` request for a single ID, the following occurs: - In the case of a watch request for a single resource, Steve API will return a partition with the requested resource in it. In other cases, it will check the user's access when constructing partitions. - When a watch request for a single resource is issued, instead of using a client which impersonates the user making the request, Steve API will use the admin client, which can read all resources. This allows any requester to see the contents of any object such as secret keys, signing certificates, API tokens.

Cybersecurity investigators found the leaked data to be information from a third party, not Ford itself, that is already accessible to the public and not sensitive in nature.

Zeek is a powerful network analysis framework that is much different from the typical IDS you may know. While focusing on network security monitoring, Zeek provides a comprehensive platform for more general network traffic analysis as well. Well grounded in more than 15 years of research, Zeek has successfully bridged the traditional gap between academia and operations since its inception. Today, it is relied upon operationally in particular by many scientific environments for securing their cyber-infrastructure. Zeek's user community includes major universities, research labs, supercomputing centers, and open-science communities. This is the source code release.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5816-1 - The Qualys Threat Research Unit discovered that libmodule-scandeps-perl, a Perl module to recursively scan Perl code for dependencies, allows an attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands via specially crafted file names.
