The Trix editor, versions prior to 2.1.1, is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution when copying and pasting content from the web or other documents with markup into the editor. The vulnerability stems from improper sanitization of pasted content, allowing an attacker to embed malicious scripts which are executed within the context of the application. **Vulnerable Versions**: Up to 2.1.0 **Fixed Version**: 2.1.1 **Vector**: - **Bug 1**: When copying content manipulated by a script, such as: ```js document.addEventListener('copy', function(e){ e.clipboardData.setData('text/html', '<div><noscript><div class="123</noscript>456<img src=1 onerror=alert(1)//"></div></noscript></div>'); e.preventDefault(); }); ``` and pasting into the Trix editor, the script within the content is executed. - **Bug 2**: Similar execution occurs with content structured as: ```js document.write(`copy<div data-trix-attachment="{"contentType":"text/html","content":"&l...
In Eclipse Dataspace Components from version 0.2.1 to 0.6.2, in the [EDC Connector component](https://github.com/eclipse-edc/Connector), an attacker might obtain OAuth2 client secrets from the vault. In Eclipse Dataspace Components from version 0.2.1 to 0.6.2, we have identified a security vulnerability in the EDC Connector component ( https://github.com/eclipse-edc/Connector ) regarding the OAuth2-protected data sink feature.

This secret's value is then sent to the tokenUrl, also consumer-controlled, as part of an OAuth2 client credentials grant. The returned access token is then sent as a bearer token to the data sink URL. This feature is now disabled e...
