Emergent macOS vulnerability lets adversaries circumvent Apple's System Integrity Protection (SIP) by loading third-party kernels.

Two hacker groups were paid to develop malware targeting victims in the US, Europe, and Asia, as well as various Chinese dissident groups.

### Impact When Git LFS requests credentials from Git for a remote host, it passes portions of the host's URL to the `git-credential(1)` command without checking for embedded line-ending control characters, and then sends any credentials it receives back from the Git credential helper to the remote host. By inserting URL-encoded control characters such as line feed (LF) or carriage return (CR) characters into the URL, an attacker may be able to retrieve a user's Git credentials. ### Patches This problem exists in all previous versions and is patched in v3.6.1. All users should upgrade to v3.6.1. ### Workarounds There are no workarounds known at this time. ### References * https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/security/advisories/GHSA-q6r2-x2cc-vrp7 * https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-53263 * https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2024-53263 * https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/releases/tag/v3.6.1 * [git-lfs/git-lfs@0345b6f816](https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lf...

Microsoft has released its monthly security update for January of 2025 which includes 159 vulnerabilities, including 10 that Microsoft marked as “critical.” The remaining vulnerabilities listed are classified as “important.”

### Description The [Git credential protocol](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-credential#IOFMT) is text-based over standard input/output, and consists of a series of lines of key-value pairs in the format `key=value`. Git's documentation restricts the use of the NUL (`\0`) character and newlines to form part of the keys[^1] or values. When Git reads from standard input, it considers both LF and CRLF[^2] as newline characters for the credential protocol by virtue of [calling `strbuf_getline`](https://github.com/git/git/blob/6a11438f43469f3815f2f0fc997bd45792ff04c0/credential.c#L311) that calls to `strbuf_getdelim_strip_crlf`. Git also validates that a newline is not present in the value by checking for the presence of the line-feed character (LF, `\n`), and errors if this is the case. This captures both LF and CRLF-type newlines. Git Credential Manager uses the .NET standard library [`StreamReader`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.io.streamreader?view=net-8.0) class t...

A flaw was found in the HAL Console in the Wildfly component, which does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output used as a web page that is served to other users. The attacker must be authenticated as a user that belongs to management groups “SuperUser”, “Admin”, or “Maintainer”.

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation (XSS or 'Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in Wikimedia Foundation Mediawiki - DataTransfer Extension allows Cross Site Request Forgery, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS).This issue affects Mediawiki - DataTransfer Extension: from 1.39.X before 1.39.11, from 1.41.X before 1.41.3, from 1.42.X before 1.42.2.

# Affected versions: - Apache Linkis Metadata Query Service JDBC 1.5.0 before 1.7.0 # Description: In Apache Linkis <1.7.0, due to the lack of effective filtering of parameters, an attacker configuring malicious Mysql JDBC parameters in the DataSource Manager Module will allow the attacker to read arbitrary files from the Linkis server. Therefore, the parameters in the Mysql JDBC URL should be blacklisted. This attack requires the attacker to obtain an authorized account from Linkis before it can be carried out. Versions of Apache Linkis < 1.6.0 will be affected. We recommend users upgrade the version of Linkis to version 1.7.0.
