GHSA-mg7w-c9x2-xh7r: Karmada PULL Mode Cluster Privilege Escalation

### Impact _What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?_ The [PULL](https://karmada.io/docs/next/userguide/clustermanager/cluster-registration#pull-mode) mode clusters registered with the `karmadactl register` command have excessive privileges to access control plane resources. By abusing these permissions, an attacker able to authenticate as the karmada-agent to a karmada cluster would be able to obtain administrative privileges over the entire federation system including all registered member clusters. ### Patches _Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_ Since Karmada v1.12.0, command `karmadactl register` restricts the access permissions of pull mode member clusters to control plane resources. This way, an attacker able to authenticate as the karmada-agent cannot control other member clusters in Karmada. ### Workarounds _Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?_ Restricts the access permissions of pu...

ABB Cylon Aspect 3.08.03 (webServerDeviceLabelUpdate.php) File Write DoS

The ABB Cylon Aspect BMS/BAS controller suffers from an authenticated arbitrary content injection vulnerability in the webServerDeviceLabelUpdate.php script due to a lack of input validation. Authenticated attackers can exploit the 'deviceLabel' POST parameter to write arbitrary content to a fixed file location at /usr/local/aam/etc/deviceLabel, potentially causing a denial of service.

Why Small Businesses Can't Rely Solely on AI to Combat Threats

The growing complexity of cyber threats, paired with limited resources, makes it essential for companies to adopt a more comprehensive approach that combines human vigilance with AI's capabilities.

ABB Cylon Aspect 4.00.00 (factorySetSerialNum.php) Remote Code Execution

The ABB Cylon Aspect BMS/BAS controller suffers from an unauthenticated blind command injection vulnerability. Input passed to the serial and ManufactureDate POST parameters is not properly sanitized, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands on the system. While factory test scripts included in the upgrade bundle are typically deleted, a short window for exploitation exists when the device is in the manufacturing phase.

ABB Cylon Aspect 4.00.00 (factorySaved.php) Unauthenticated XSS

The ABB Cylon Aspect BMS/BAS controller suffers from an unauthenticated reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in the 'title' GET parameter. Input is not properly sanitized before being returned to the user, allowing the execution of arbitrary HTML/JS code in a user's browser session in the context of the affected site. While the factory test scripts included in the upgrade bundle are typically deleted, a short window for exploitation exists when the device is in the manufacturing phase.

New AI Jailbreak Method 'Bad Likert Judge' Boosts Attack Success Rates by Over 60%

Cybersecurity researchers have shed light on a new jailbreak technique that could be used to get past a large language model's (LLM) safety guardrails and produce potentially harmful or malicious responses. The multi-turn (aka many-shot) attack strategy has been codenamed Bad Likert Judge by Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 researchers Yongzhe Huang, Yang Ji, Wenjun Hu, Jay Chen, Akshata Rao, and
