All versions of the package lite-web-server are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) when an attacker sends an HTTP request and includes control characters that the decodeURI() function is unable to parse.
Gentoo soko is the code that powers packages.gentoo.org. Versions prior to 1.0.1 are vulnerable to SQL Injection, leading to a Denial of Service. If the user selects (in user preferences) the "Recently Visited Packages" view for the index page, the value of the `search_history` cookie is used as a base64 encoded comma separated list of atoms. These are string loaded directly into the SQL query with `atom = '%s'` format string. As a result, any user can modify the browser's cookie value and inject most SQL queries. A proof of concept malformed cookie was generated that wiped the database or changed it's content. On the database, only public data is stored, so there is no confidentiality issues to site users. If it is known that the database was modified, a full restoration of data is possible by performing a full database wipe and performing full update of all components. This issue is patched with commit id 5ae9ca83b73. Version 1.0.1 contains the patch. If users are unable to upgrade i...
Debian Linux Security Advisory 5362-1 - An out-of-bounds read in the BGP daemon of FRRouting FRR before 8.4 may lead to a segmentation fault and denial of service. This occurs in bgp_capability_msg_parse in bgpd/bgp_packet.c.
Simple Food Ordering System version 1.0 suffers from a cross site scripting vulnerability.
Debian Linux Security Advisory 5361-1 - Several flaws were found in tiffcrop, a program distributed by tiff, the Tag Image File Format (TIFF) library and tools. A specially crafted tiff file can lead to an out-of-bounds write or read resulting in a denial of service.
Debian Linux Security Advisory 5359-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in Chromium, which could result in the execution of arbitrary code, denial of service or information disclosure.
Preparation and cooperation helped to mitigate the worst of the digital damage, amid cyber sorties from all sides.
### Impact A XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability found in the apoc.import.graphml procedure of APOC core plugin in Neo4j graph database. XML External Entity (XXE) injection occurs when the XML parser allows external entities to be resolved. The XML parser used by the apoc.import.graphml procedure was not configured in a secure way and therefore allowed this. External entities can be used to read local files, send HTTP requests, and perform denial-of-service attacks on the application. Abusing the XXE vulnerability enabled assessors to read local files remotely. Although with the level of privileges assessors had this was limited to one-line files. With the ability to write to the database, any file could have been read. Additionally, assessors noted, with local testing, the server could be crashed by passing in improperly formatted XML. ### Patches The users should aim to use the latest released version compatible with their Neo4j version. The minimum versions containing patch ...
