GHSA-246p-xmg8-wmcq: OneUptime Vulnerable to a Privilege Escalation via Local Storage Key Manipulation

## Summary A security vulnerability exists in oneuptime's local storage handling, where a regular user can escalate privileges by modifying the `is_master_admin` key to `true`. This allows unauthorized access to administrative functionalities. ## Details The vulnerability lies in the improper validation of client-side stored data within the web application. Specifically, the `is_master_admin` key, stored in the local storage of the browser, can be manipulated by an attacker. By changing this key from false to true, the application grants administrative privileges to the user, without proper server-side validation. ## POC (I am using Firefox Developer to demonstrate this vulnerability) Log in as a normal user. Open developer tools (hit F12), click Storage, then Local Storage. Modify the `is_master_admin` key from `false` to `true`. ## Impact This vulnerability represents a high security risk as it allows any authenticated user to gain administrative privileges through client-side ma...

GHSA-pv9j-c53q-h433: Gadget chain in Symfony 1 due to uncontrolled unserialized input in sfNamespacedParameterHolder

### Summary Symfony 1 has a gadget chain due to dangerous unserialize in `sfNamespacedParameterHolder` class that would enable an attacker to get remote code execution if a developer unserialize user input in his project. ### Details This vulnerability present no direct threat but is a vector that will enable remote code execution if a developper deserialize user untrusted data. For example: ```php public function executeIndex(sfWebRequest $request) { $a = unserialize($request->getParameter('user')); } ``` We will make the assumption this is the case in the rest of this explanation. Symfony 1 provides the class `sfNamespacedParameterHolder` which implements `Serializable` interface. In particular, when an instance of this class is deserialized, the normal php behavior is hooked by implementing `unserialize()` method: ```php public function unserialize($serialized) { $this->__unserialize(unserialize($serialized)); } ``` Which make an array access on the ...

GHSA-fh7p-5f6g-vj2w: Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in GeoServer's REST Resources API

### Summary A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists that enables an authenticated administrator with workspace-level privileges to store a JavaScript payload in uploaded style/legend resources that will execute in the context of another administrator's browser when viewed in the REST Resources API. Access to the REST Resources API is limited to full administrators by default and granting non-administrators access to this endpoint should be carefully considered as it may allow access to files containing sensitive information. ### Details Upload a new Legend via the New Style page if user has permissions for this. This file is then not checked and is uploaded to the backend system. This file can then be viewed directly by requesting it via the API which will then view the file in its raw format without sanitisation. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6471928/232732469-7dbf2776-5712-4c68-bd12-e2403c136a7c.png) ![image](https://user-images.githubusercont...

GHSA-wjv8-pxr6-5f4r: Gadget chain in Symfony 1 due to vulnerable Swift Mailer dependency

### Summary Symfony 1 has a gadget chain due to vulnerable Swift Mailer dependency that would enable an attacker to get remote code execution if a developer unserialize user input in his project. ### Details This vulnerability present no direct threat but is a vector that will enable remote code execution if a developper deserialize user untrusted data. For example: ```php public function executeIndex(sfWebRequest $request) { $a = unserialize($request->getParameter('user')); } ``` We will make the assumption this is the case in the rest of this explanation. Symfony 1 depends on Swift Mailer which is bundled by default in `vendor` directory in the default installation since 1.3.0. Swift Mailer classes implement some `__destruct()` methods like for instance `Swift_KeyCache_DiskKeyCache` : ```php public function __destruct() { foreach ($this->_keys as $nsKey=>$null) { $this->clearAll($nsKey); } } ``` This method is called when php destroy the object in...
