GHSA-j5vv-6wjg-cfr8: changedetection.io Vulnerable to Improper Input Validation Leading to LFR/Path Traversal

### Summary Improper input validation in the application can allow attackers to perform local file read (LFR) or path traversal attacks. These vulnerabilities occur when user input is used to construct file paths without adequate sanitization or validation. For example, using `file:../../../etc/passwd` or `file: ///etc/passwd` can bypass weak validations and allow unauthorized access to sensitive files. Even though this has been addressed in previous patch, it is still insufficient. ### Details The check in this line of code is insufficient. ``` if re.search(r'^file:/', url.strip(), re.IGNORECASE): ``` The attacker can still bypass this by using: -`file:../../../../etc/passwd` -`file: ///etc/passwd` (with space before /) ### PoC - Open up a changedetection.io instance with a webdriver configured. - Create a new watch with `file:../../../../etc/passwd`. - Check the watch preview. - The contents of `/etc/passwd` should pop out. ### Screenshots ![image](https://github.com/user-attachme...

GHSA-8gc2-vq6m-rwjw: Amazon Redshift Python Connector vulnerable to SQL Injection

### Summary A SQL injection in the Amazon Redshift Python Connector in version 2.1.4 allows a user to gain escalated privileges via schema injection in the get_schemas, get_tables, or get_columns Metadata APIs. Users should upgrade to the driver version 2.1.5 or revert to driver version 2.1.3. ### Impact A SQL injection is possible in the Amazon Redshift Python Connector, version 2.1.4, when leveraging metadata APIs to retrieve information about database schemas, tables, or columns. **Impacted versions:** Amazon Redshift Python Connector version 2.1.4. ### Patches The issue described above has been addressed in the Amazon Redshift Python Connector, version 2.1.5. The patch implemented in this version ensures that every metadata command input is sent to the Redshift server as part of a parameterized query, using either QUOTE_IDENT(string) or QUOTE_LITERAL(string). After processing all the inputs into quoted identifiers or literals, the metadata command is composed using these input...
