The ABB Cylon ASPECT system contains an unauthenticated information disclosure vulnerability in the pupDumpStats.php script. When this endpoint is accessed, it triggers the download of a sensitive debug file located at /usr/local/aam/var/pupdbg.dump. This file may contain internal system information, including protocol states, transaction logs, and system mappings. The vulnerability arises from an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) issue, where the script does not validate or authenticate the requester before allowing access to the debug file. Exploiting this flaw enables an attacker to retrieve sensitive operational data, potentially aiding in further exploitation of the system.

### Summary pnpm seems to mishandle overrides and global cache: 1. Overrides from one workspace leak into npm metadata saved in global cache 2. npm metadata from global cache affects other workspaces 3. installs by default don't revalidate the data (including on first lockfile generation) This can make workspace A (even running with `ignore-scripts=true`) posion global cache and execute scripts in workspace B Users generally expect `ignore-scripts` to be sufficient to prevent immediate code execution on install (e.g. when the tree is just repacked/bundled without executing it). Here, that expectation is broken ### Details See PoC. In it, overrides from a single run of A get leaked into e.g. `~/Library/Caches/pnpm/metadata/registry.npmjs.org/rimraf.json` and persistently affect all other projects using the cache ### PoC Postinstall code used in PoC is benign and can be inspected in <https://www.npmjs.com/package/ponyhooves?activeTab=code>, it's just a `console.log` 1.

There is a possible Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the `content_security_policy` helper in Action Pack. Impact ------ Applications which set Content-Security-Policy (CSP) headers dynamically from untrusted user input may be vulnerable to carefully crafted inputs being able to inject new directives into the CSP. This could lead to a bypass of the CSP and its protection against XSS and other attacks. Releases -------- The fixed releases are available at the normal locations. Workarounds ----------- Applications can avoid setting CSP headers dynamically from untrusted input, or can validate/sanitize that input.
