GHSA-g5jh-57wm-p79m: Missing connection timeout in Aardvark-dns

A flaw was found in Aardvark-dns versions 1.12.0 and 1.12.1. They contain a denial of service vulnerability due to serial processing of TCP DNS queries. This flaw allows a malicious client to keep a TCP connection open indefinitely, causing other DNS queries to time out and resulting in a denial of service for all other containers using aardvark-dns.

GHSA-h4gh-qq45-vh27: pyca/cryptography has a vulnerable OpenSSL included in cryptography wheels

pyca/cryptography's wheels include a statically linked copy of OpenSSL. The versions of OpenSSL included in cryptography 37.0.0-43.0.0 are vulnerable to a security issue. More details about the vulnerability itself can be found in https://openssl-library.org/news/secadv/20240903.txt. If you are building cryptography source ("sdist") then you are responsible for upgrading your copy of OpenSSL. Only users installing from wheels built by the cryptography project (i.e., those distributed on PyPI) need to update their cryptography versions.

GHSA-8wm9-24qg-m5qj: Keycloak has a brute force login protection bypass

A vulnerability was found in Keycloak. This flaw allows attackers to bypass brute force protection by exploiting the timing of login attempts. By initiating multiple login requests simultaneously, attackers can exceed the configured limits for failed attempts before the system locks them out. This timing loophole enables attackers to make more guesses at passwords than intended, potentially compromising account security on affected systems.

GHSA-p2q9-36vw-c468: olm-sys: wrapped library unmaintained, potentially vulnerable

After several cryptographic vulnerabilities in `libolm` were disclosed publicly, the Matrix Foundation has [officially deprecated the library](https://matrix.org/blog/2024/08/libolm-deprecation/). `olm-sys` is a thin wrapper around `libolm` and is now deprecated and potentially vulnerable in kind. Users of `olm-sys` and its higher-level abstraction, `olm-rs`, are highly encouraged to switch to [`vodozemac`](https://crates.io/crates/vodozemac) as soon as possible. It is the successor effort to `libolm` and is written in Rust.

GHSA-6xx4-x46f-f897: Hoverfly allows an arbitrary file read in the `/api/v2/simulation` endpoint (`GHSL-2023-274`)

### Details The `/api/v2/simulation` [POST handler](https://github.com/spectolabs/hoverfly/blob/15d6ee9ea4e0de67aec5a41c28d21dc147243da0/core/handlers/v2/simulation_handler.go#L87) allows users to create new simulation views from the contents of a user-specified file. This feature can be abused by an attacker to read arbitrary files from the Hoverfly server. ```go # https://github.com/spectolabs/hoverfly/blob/15d6ee9ea4e0de67aec5a41c28d21dc147243da0/core/hoverfly_funcs.go#L186 func (hf *Hoverfly) readResponseBodyFile(filePath string) (string, error) { if filepath.IsAbs(filePath) { return "", fmt.Errorf("bodyFile contains absolute path (%s). only relative is supported", filePath) } fileContents, err := ioutil.ReadFile(filepath.Join(hf.Cfg.ResponsesBodyFilesPath, filePath)) if err != nil { return "", err } return string(fileContents[:]), nil } ``` Note that, although the code prevents absolute paths from being specified, an attacker can escape out of the `hf.Cfg.ResponsesB...

GHSA-cxww-7g56-2vh6: @actions/download-artifact has an Arbitrary File Write via artifact extraction

### Impact Versions of `actions/download-artifact` before 4.1.7 are vulnerable to arbitrary file write when downloading and extracting a specifically crafted artifact that contains path traversal filenames. ### Patches Upgrade to version 4.1.7 or higher. Alternatively use 'v4' tag which points to the latest and secure version. ### References - https://snyk.io/research/zip-slip-vulnerability - https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/releases/tag/v4.1.7 ### CVE CVE-2024-42471 ### Credits Justin Taft from Google

GHSA-vr26-jcq5-fjj8: Denial of service in quinn-proto when using `Endpoint::retry()`

### Summary As of quinn-proto 0.11, it is possible for a server to `accept()`, `retry()`, `refuse()`, or `ignore()` an `Incoming` connection. However, calling `retry()` on an unvalidated connection exposes the server to a likely panic in the following situations: - Calling `refuse` or `ignore` on the resulting validated connection, if a duplicate initial packet is received - This issue can go undetected until a server's `refuse()`/`ignore()` code path is exercised, such as to stop a denial of service attack. - Accepting when the initial packet for the resulting validated connection fails to decrypt or exhausts connection IDs, if a similar initial packet that successfully decrypts and doesn't exhaust connection IDs is received. - This issue can go undetected if clients are well-behaved. The former situation was observed in a real application, while the latter is only theoretical. ### Details Location of panic: https://github.com/quinn-rs/quinn/blob/bb02a12a8435a7732a1d762783eea...

GHSA-v26r-4c9c-h3j6: gix-path uses local config across repos when it is the highest scope

### Summary `gix-path` executes `git` to find the path of a configuration file that belongs to the `git` installation itself, but mistakenly treats the local repository's configuration as system-wide if no higher scoped configuration is found. In rare cases, this causes a less trusted repository to be treated as more trusted, or leaks sensitive information from one repository to another, such as sending credentials to another repository's remote. ### Details In `gix_path::env`, the underlying implementation of the `installation_config` and `installation_config_prefix` functions calls `git config -l --show-origin` and parses the first line of the output to extract the path to the configuration file holding the configuration variable of highest [scope](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-config#SCOPES): https://github.com/Byron/gitoxide/blob/12251eb052df30105538fa831e641eea557f13d8/gix-path/src/env/git/mod.rs#L91 https://github.com/Byron/gitoxide/blob/12251eb052df30105538fa831e641eea557f13...

GHSA-pqfh-xh7w-7h3p: The Bare Metal Operator (BMO) can expose particularly named secrets from other namespaces via BMH CRD

### Impact The Bare Metal Operator (BMO) implements a Kubernetes API for managing bare metal hosts in Metal3. The `BareMetalHost` (BMH) CRD allows the `userData`, `metaData`, and `networkData` for the provisioned host to be specified as links to Kubernetes Secrets. There are fields for both the `Name` and `Namespace` of the Secret, meaning that the baremetal-operator will read a `Secret` from any namespace. A user with access to create or edit a `BareMetalHost` can thus exfiltrate a `Secret` from another namespace by using it as e.g. the `userData` for provisioning some host (note that this need not be a real host, it could be a VM somewhere). ### Limiting factors BMO will only read a key with the name `value` (or `userData`, `metaData`, or `networkData`), so that limits the exposure somewhat. `value` is probably a pretty common key though. Secrets used by _other_ `BareMetalHost`s in different namespaces are always vulnerable. It is probably relatively unusual for anyone other than c...

### Impact Versions of `actions/artifact` before 2.1.7 are vulnerable to arbitrary file write when using `downloadArtifactInternal`, `downloadArtifactPublic`, or `streamExtractExternal` for extracting a specifically crafted artifact that contains path traversal filenames. ### Patches Upgrade to version 2.1.7 or higher. ### References - https://snyk.io/research/zip-slip-vulnerability - https://github.com/actions/toolkit/pull/1724 ### CVE CVE-2024-42471 ### Credits Justin Taft from Google
