ABB Cylon Aspect BMS/BAS is vulnerable to a critical flaw in the AuthenticatedHttpServlet within its application server, enabling remote attackers to bypass authentication by setting the Host: 127.0.0.1 header. This deceives the server into processing requests as if they originate from localhost, granting unauthorized access to privileged operations. This bypass grants access to privileged functionality, including the HTTPDownloadServlet, which is vulnerable to directory traversal. By leveraging this, an attacker can delete arbitrary PHP files outside the intended directory scope.

A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the mstp.ko kernel module, responsible for processing BACnet MS/TP frames over serial (RS485). The SendFrame() function writes directly into a statically sized kernel buffer (alloc_entry(0x1f5)) without validating the length of attacker-controlled data (param_5). If an MS/TP frame contains a crafted payload exceeding 492 bytes, the function performs out-of-bounds writes beyond the allocated 501-byte buffer, corrupting kernel memory. This flaw allows local or physically connected attackers to trigger denial-of-service or achieve remote code execution in kernel space. Tested against version 3.08.03 with a custom BACnet frame over /dev/ttyS0.

The ABB Cylon Aspect BAS controller allows login using guest:guest, which initiates a web session but restricts access to administrative features by returning an 'Invalid Admin Username and/or Password' message. However, the session is still active and valid within the HMI environment. Despite failed privilege validation in the login flow, direct navigation to /setup.php bypasses authentication and authorization controls entirely. This endpoint serves as the administrative dashboard and allows full configuration access, including the ability to change credentials for the privileged aamuser account. This flaw results in privilege escalation from a limited guest session to full administrative control, compromising the integrity of the system.

The U.S. government today unsealed criminal charges against 16 individuals accused of operating and selling DanaBot, a prolific strain of information-stealing malware that has been sold on Russian cybercrime forums since 2018. The FBI says a newer version of DanaBot was used for espionage, and that many of the defendants exposed their real-life identities after accidentally infecting their own systems with the malware.

### Summary When using Keycloak as an oidc provider, the clientsecret gets printed into the container stdout logs for an example at container startup. ### Details Container Image (15.04.2025): ghcr.io/project-zot/zot-linux-amd64:latest Here is an example how the configuration can look which causes the above stated problem: ` http: address: "0.0.0.0" port: 5000 externalUrl: "https://zot.example.com" auth: { failDelay: 1, openid: { providers: { oidc: { name: "Keycloak", clientid: "zot-client-id", clientsecret: fsdfkmmiwljasdklfsjaskldjfkljewijrf234i52k3j45l, keypath: "", issuer: "https://keycloak.example.com/realms/example", scopes: ["openid"] } } } } ` ### PoC Set up a blank new zot k8s deployment with the code snippet above. ### Impact exposure of secrets, on configuring a oidc provider

Pingora versions prior to 0.5.0 which used the caching functionality in pingora-proxy did not properly drain the downstream request body on cache hits. This allows an attacker to craft malicious HTTP/1.1 requests which could lead to request smuggling or cache poisoning. This flaw was corrected in commit fda3317ec822678564d641e7cf1c9b77ee3759ff by ensuring that the downstream request body is always drained before a connection can be reused. See [the blog post](https://blog.cloudflare.com/resolving-a-request-smuggling-vulnerability-in-pingora/) for more information.
