Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability in the examples web application provided with Apache Tomcat leads to denial of service. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.1, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.33, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.9.97. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.2, 10.1.34 or 9.0.98, which fixes the issue.

The ABB Cylon Aspect BMS/BAS controller allows users to bypass authentication by setting the 'content' POST parameter. This enables an attacker to inject arbitrary configuration overrides, potentially leading to unauthorized changes and compromising system integrity. The vulnerability can be exploited to update the /usr/local/aam/etc/override.properties file. This file contains critical configuration overrides such as enabling overrides (Override.enabled=true) and setting specific properties like debug.level=1. The runjava.VARIANT* script then sources this file during execution, applying the overrides when the system reboots or the application restarts. This allows attackers to manipulate critical system settings, potentially causing performance degradation, introducing security risks, or resulting in a denial of service scenario.

IntroductionIn a previous article, I demonstrated how to configure the Automatic Certificate Management Environment (ACME) feature included in the Identity Management (IdM) Dogtag Certificate Authority (CA). Specifically, I covered installation of IdM with random serial numbers, and how to enable the ACME service and expired certificate pruning. This article explains the management of ACME (currently a technology preview) with IdM and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) clients.Currently, mod_md is the only ACME client implementation completely supported and provided by Red Hat. For this article,

An authenticated access vulnerability in the aspectMemory.php script of ABB Cylon Aspect BMS/BAS controllers allows attackers to set arbitrary values for Java heap memory parameters (HEAPMIN and HEAPMAX). This configuration is written to /usr/local/aam/etc/javamem. The absence of input validation can lead to system performance degradation, Denial-of-Service (DoS) conditions, and crashes of critical Java applications.

Improper Authorization vulnerability in Apache Superset. On Postgres analytic databases an attacker with SQLLab access can craft a specially designed SQL DML statement that is Incorrectly identified as a read-only query, enabling its execution. Non postgres analytics database connections and postgres analytics database connections set with a readonly user (advised) are not vulnerable.  This issue affects Apache Superset: before 4.1.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.1.0, which fixes the issue.

The ABB BMS/BAS controller suffers from an unauthenticated blind OS command injection vulnerability. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands through the 'portValue' HTTP GET parameter called by obtainPorts.php script.

The obtainPorts.php script is accessible without authentication, allowing unauthorized users to retrieve and manipulate configuration parameters. This includes the ability to modify critical settings such as port values, potentially disrupting system functionality or enabling further exploitation.

The portQueueAjax.php endpoint on ABB Cylon Aspect BMS/BAS controller is accessible without authentication, potentially exposing sensitive port statistics and network activity metrics. An attacker could leverage this information to map the network, identify critical systems, and plan further attacks.

File upload logic is flawed vulnerability in Apache Struts. This issue affects Apache Struts: from 2.0.0 before 6.4.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.4.0, which fixes the issue. You can find more details in  https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WW/S2-067

Improper Authorization vulnerability in Apache Superset when FAB_ADD_SECURITY_API is enabled (disabled by default). Allows for lower privilege users to use this API.  issue affects Apache Superset: from 2.0.0 before 4.1.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.1.0, which fixes the issue.
