GHSA-cj3c-5xpm-cx94: Kimai API returns timesheet entries a user should not be authorized to view

### Summary The permission `view_other_timesheet` performs differently for the Kimai UI and the API, thus returning unexpected data through the API. ### Details When setting the `view_other_timesheet` permission to true, on the frontend, users can only see timesheet entries for teams they are a part of. When requesting all timesheets from the API, however, all timesheet entries are returned, regardless of whether the user shares team permissions or not. Example: There are projects P1 and P2, Teams T1 and T2, users U1 and U2 and Timesheet entries E1 and E2. U1 is team leader of team T1 and has access to P1. U2 is in Team T2 and has access to both P1 and P2. U2 creates E1 for P1 and E2 for P2. In the UI, U1 with `view _other_timesheet` perms sees E1 as he is a part of T1 that has access to P1. In the API, however, he has access to E1 **and E2**. Additionally, if U1 is not a team leader T1, he does not see any timesheet from a user other than himself in the UI, but still all timesheets...

WatchGuard XTM Firebox Unauthenticated Remote Command Execution

This Metasploit module exploits a buffer overflow at the administration interface (8080 or 4117) of WatchGuard Firebox and XTM appliances which is built from a cherrypy python backend sending XML-RPC requests to a C binary called wgagent using pre-authentication endpoint /agent/login. This vulnerability impacts Fireware OS before 12.7.2_U2, 12.x before 12.1.3_U8, and 12.2.x through 12.5.x before 12.5.9_U2. Successful exploitation results in remote code execution as user nobody.
