GHSA-3q26-f695-pp76: @cyanheads/git-mcp-server vulnerable to command injection in several tools

### Summary A command injection vulnerability exists in the `git-mcp-server` MCP Server. The vulnerability is caused by the unsanitized use of input parameters within a call to `child_process.exec`, enabling an attacker to inject arbitrary system commands. Successful exploitation can lead to remote code execution under the server process's privileges. The server constructs and executes shell commands using unvalidated user input directly within command-line strings. This introduces the possibility of shell metacharacter injection (`|`, `>`, `&&`, etc.). ### Details The MCP Server exposes tools (`git_add`, `git_init`, `git_logs`, etcc) to perform several git operations. An MCP Client can be instructed to execute additional actions for example via indirect prompt injection when asked to read git logs. Below some example of vulnerable code and different ways to test this vulnerability including a real example of indirect prompt injection that can lead to arbitrary command injection...

GHSA-v8fr-vxmw-6mf6: Mattermost Incorrect Authorization vulnerability

Mattermost versions 10.5.x <= 10.5.5, 9.11.x <= 9.11.15, 10.8.x <= 10.8.0, 10.7.x <= 10.7.2, 10.6.x <= 10.6.5 fail to properly enforce channel member management permissions when adding participants to playbook runs. This allows authenticated users with member-level permissions to bypass system admin restrictions and add or remove users to/from private channels via the playbook run participants feature, even when the 'Manage Members' permission has been explicitly removed. This can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive channel content and allow guest users to gain channel management privileges.

GHSA-wgvp-jj4w-88hf: Mattermost Incorrect Authorization vulnerability

Mattermost versions 10.5.x <= 10.5.5, 9.11.x <= 9.11.15, 10.8.x <= 10.8.0, 10.7.x <= 10.7.2, 10.6.x <= 10.6.5 fail to properly validate channel membership when retrieving playbook run metadata, allowing authenticated users who are playbook members but not channel members to access sensitive information about linked private channels including channel name, display name, and participant count through the run metadata API endpoint.

GHSA-8gqp-hr9g-pg62: Conductor vulnerable to OS command injection through unrestricted access to Java classes

Orkes Conductor v3.21.11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands through unrestricted access to Java classes.

GHSA-994j-5c83-r424: string-math's string-math.js vulnerability can cause Regex Denial of Service (ReDoS)

string-math v1.2.2 was discovered to contain a Regex Denial of Service (ReDoS) which is exploited via a crafted input.

GHSA-56j4-446m-qrf6: Babylon vulnerable to chain half when transaction has fees different than `ubbn`

### Summary Sending transactions with fees different than native Babylon genesis denom (`ubbn`) leads to chain halt. ### Impact Denial of Service - Due to panic in the `x/distribution` module `BeginBlocker` triggered by a error when sending fees from `feeCollector` to `x/distribution` module - https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/main/x/distribution/keeper/allocation.go#L28 Babylon Genesis will halt

GHSA-373j-mhpf-84wg: Janssen Config API returns results without scope verification

### Impact _What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?_ The configAPI is an internal service and hence should never be exposed to the internet. With that said, this is a serious vulnerability that has a large internal surface attack area that exposes all sorts of information from the IDP including clients, users, scripts ..etc. This affects all users of Janssen <1.8.0 and Gluu Flex <5.8.0 ### Patches _Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_ All users are advised to upgrade immediately to [1.8.0](https://github.com/JanssenProject/jans/releases/tag/v1.8.0) for Janssen users and [5.8.0](https://github.com/GluuFederation/flex/releases/tag/v5.8.0) For Flex users. ### Workarounds _Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?_ The user can potentially fork and build the config api and patch it in their system following the commit here https://github.com/JanssenProject/jans/commit/92eea4d4637f1cae16ad2f07b2c16378ff3f...

GHSA-cm2r-rg7r-p7gg: File Browser vulnerable to insecure password handling

## Summary ## All user accounts authenticate towards a *File Browser* instance with a password. A missing password policy and brute-force protection makes it impossible for administrators to properly secure the authentication process. ## Impact ## Attackers can mount a brute-force attack against the passwords of all accounts of an instance. Since the application is lacking the ability to prevent users from choosing a weak password, the attack is likely to succeed. ## Vulnerability Description ## The application implement a classical authentication scheme using a username and password combination. While employed by many systems, this scheme is quite error-prone and a common cause for vulnerabilities. File Browser's implementation has multiple weak points: 1. Since the application is missing the capability for administrators to define a password policy, users are at liberty to set trivial and well-known passwords such as `secret` or even ones with only single digit like `1`. 2. New...

GHSA-3v48-283x-f2w4: File Browser's password protection of links is bypassable

## Summary ## Files managed by the *File Browser* can be shared with a link to external persons. While the application allows protecting those links with a password, the implementation is error-prone, making an incidental unprotected sharing of a file possible. ## Impact ## File owners might rest in the assumption that their shared files are only accessible to persons knowing the defined password, giving them a false sense of security. Meanwhile, attackers gaining access to the unprotected link can use this information alone to download the possibly sensitive file. ## Vulnerability Description ## When sharing a file, the user is presented with a dialog asking for an optional password to protect the file share. The assumption of the user at this point would be, that the shared file won't be accessible without knowledge of the password. After clicking on `SHARE` the following dialog opens allowing the file's owner to copy the share-link: ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments...
