GHSA-qfv2-3p2f-vg48: Duplicate Advisory: Central Dogma Authentication Bypass Vulnerability via Session Leakage

## Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-34q3-p352-c7q8. This link is maintained to preserve external references. ## Original Description Central Dogma versions prior to 0.64.0 is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), which could allow for the leakage of user sessions and subsequent authentication bypass.

GHSA-547x-748v-vp6p: Dash apps vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting

Versions of the package dash-core-components before 2.13.0; all versions of the package dash-core-components; versions of the package dash before 2.15.0; all versions of the package dash-html-components; versions of the package dash-html-components before 2.0.16 are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) when the href of the a tag is controlled by an adversary. An authenticated attacker who stores a view that exploits this vulnerability could steal the data that's visible to another user who opens that view - not just the data already included on the page, but they could also, in theory, make additional requests and access other data accessible to this user. In some cases, they could also steal the access tokens of that user, which would allow the attacker to act as that user, including viewing other apps and resources hosted on the same server. **Note:** This is only exploitable in Dash apps that include some mechanism to store user input to be reloaded by a different user.

Cloudflare Breach: Nation-State Hackers Access Source Code and Internal Docs

GHSA-vqxq-hvxw-9mv9: Statmic CMS vulnerable to account takeover via XSS and password reset link

### Impact HTML files crafted to look like jpg files are able to be uploaded, allowing for XSS. This affects: - front-end forms with asset fields without any mime type validation - asset fields in the control panel - asset browser in the control panel Additionally, if the XSS is crafted in a specific way, the "copy password reset link" feature may be exploited to gain access to a user's password reset token and gain access to their account. The authorized user is required to execute the XSS in order for the vulnerability to occur. ### Patches In versions 4.46.0 and 3.4.17, the XSS vulnerability has been patched, and the copy password reset link functionality has been disabled. (Users may still trigger password reset emails.) ### Credits Statamic thanks Niklas Schilling (discovery, analysis, coordination) from the SEC Consult Vulnerability Lab (https://www.sec-consult.com/) for responsibly reporting the identified issues and working with us as we addressed them.

GHSA-xx8w-mq23-29g4: Minio unsafe default: Access keys inherit `admin` of root user, allowing privilege escalation

### Summary When someone creates an access key, it inherits the permissions of the parent key. Not only for `s3:*` actions, but also `admin:*` actions. Which means unless somewhere above in the access-key hierarchy, the `admin` rights are denied, access keys will be able to simply override their own `s3` permissions to something more permissive. Credit to @xSke for sort of accidentally discovering this. I only understood the implications. ### Details / PoC We spun up the latest version of minio in a docker container and signed in to the admin UI using the minio root user. We created two buckets, `public` and `private` and created an access key called `mycat` and attached the following policy to only allow access to the bucket called `public`. ```json { "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "s3:*" ], "Resource": [ "arn:aws:s3:::public", "arn:aws:s3:::public/*" ] } ] } ``` We then set an alias in mc: `mcli ali...
