Thread Hijacking: Phishes That Prey on Your Curiosity

Thread hijacking attacks. They happen when someone you know has their email account compromised, and you are suddenly dropped into an existing conversation between the sender and someone else. These missives draw on the recipient's natural curiosity about being copied on a private discussion, which is modified to include a malicious link or attachment. Here's the story of a recent thread hijacking attack in which a journalist was copied on a phishing email from the unwilling subject of a recent scoop.

GHSA-r75m-26cq-mjxc: Serverpod improved security for stored password hashes

## Description ### Improved security for stored password hashes Serverpod now uses the OWASP, [source](https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Password_Storage_Cheat_Sheet.html#introduction), recommended Argon2Id password hash algorithm to store password hashes for the email authentication module. Starting from Serverpod `1.2.6` all users that either creates an account or authenticates with the server will have their password stored using the safer algorithm. No changes are required from the developer to start storing passwords using the safer algorithm. ### Why did we change how passwords are stored? An issue was identified with the old password hash algorithm that made it susceptible to rainbow attacks if the database was compromised. It is strongly recommended to migrate your existing password hashes. ### Migrate existing password hashes The email authentication module provides a helper method to migrate all the existing legacy password hashes in the database. Simply cal...

GHSA-gp8g-f42f-95q2: ZITADEL's actions can overload reserved claims

### Impact Under certain circumstances an action could set [reserved claims](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/openidoauth/claims#reserved-claims) managed by ZITADEL. For example it would be possible to set the claim `urn:zitadel:iam:user:resourceowner:name` ```json {"urn:zitadel:iam:user:resourceowner:name": "ACME"} ``` if it was not set by ZITADEL itself. To compensate for this we introduced a protection that does prevent actions from changing claims that start with `urn:zitadel:iam` ### Patches 2.x versions are fixed on >= [2.48.3](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/releases/tag/v2.48.3) 2.47.x versions are fixed on >= [2.47.8](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/releases/tag/v2.47.8) 2.46.x versions are fixed on >= [2.46.5](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/releases/tag/v2.46.5) 2.45.x versions are fixed on >= [2.45.5](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/releases/tag/v2.45.5) 2.44.x versions are fixed on >= [2.44.7](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/releases/tag/v2.44.7) 2.43.x ve...
