### Summary An issue on Coder's login page allows attackers to craft a Coder URL that when clicked by a logged in user could redirect them to a website the attacker controls, e.g. https://google.com. ### Details On the login page, Coder checks for the presence of a `redirect` query parameter. On successful login, the user would be redirected to the location of the parameter. Improper sanitization allows attackers to specify a URL outside of the Coder application to redirect users to. ### Impact Coder users could potentially be redirected to a untrusted website if tricked into clicking a URL crafted by the attacker. Coder authentication tokens are **not** leaked to the resulting website. To check if your deployment is vulnerable, visit the following URL for your Coder deployment: - `https://<coder url>/login?redirect=https%3A%2F%2Fcoder.com%2Fdocs` ### Patched Versions This vulnerability is remedied in - v2.16.1 - v2.15.3 - v2.14.4 All versions prior to 2.3.1 are not affected. ###...

### Impact The patch for the historical vulnerability CVE-2020-35460 in MPXJ is incomplete as there is still a possibility that a malicious path could be constructed which would not be picked up by the original fix and allow files to be written to arbitrary locations. ### Patches The issue is addressed in MPXJ version 13.5.1 ### Workarounds Do not pass zip files to MPXJ. ### References N/A

### Summary Due to a race condition in a global variable, the argo workflows controller can be made to crash on-command by any user with access to execute a workflow. This was resolved by https://github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/pull/13641 ### Details These two lines introduce a data race in the underlying SPDY implementation of the Kubernetes API client. If a second request is made before the first completes, it results in a panic due to a null pointer. * https://github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/blob/ce7f9bfb9b45f009b3e85fabe5e6410de23c7c5f/workflow/metrics/metrics_k8s_request.go#L49 * https://github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/blob/ce7f9bfb9b45f009b3e85fabe5e6410de23c7c5f/workflow/metrics/metrics_k8s_request.go#L75 This appears to have been added in this commit https://github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/commit/9756babd0ed589d1cd24592f05725f748f74130b / #13265 / v3.6.0-rc1 ### PoC With the `KUBECONFIG` variable set to an appropriate file with `create` permissions for the `W...

There is a whole ecosystem behind the sales and distribution of counterfeit goods. Best to tay away from them.

### Impact The REXML gem before 3.3.9 has a ReDoS vulnerability when it parses an XML that has many digits between `&#` and `x...;` in a hex numeric character reference (`&#x...;`). This does not happen with Ruby 3.2 or later. Ruby 3.1 is the only affected maintained Ruby. Note that Ruby 3.1 will reach EOL on 2025-03. ### Patches The REXML gem 3.3.9 or later include the patch to fix the vulnerability. ### Workarounds Use Ruby 3.2 or later instead of Ruby 3.1. ### References * https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2024/10/28/redos-rexml-cve-2024-49761/: An announce on www.ruby-lang.org
