New Malware Hits 300,000 Users with Rogue Chrome and Edge Extensions

An ongoing, widespread malware campaign has been observed installing rogue Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge extensions via a trojan distributed via fake websites masquerading as popular software. "The trojan malware contains different deliverables ranging from simple adware extensions that hijack searches to more sophisticated malicious scripts that deliver local extensions to steal private data

Experts Uncover Severe AWS Flaws Leading to RCE, Data Theft, and Full-Service Takeovers

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered multiple critical flaws in Amazon Web Services (AWS) offerings that, if successfully exploited, could result in serious consequences. "The impact of these vulnerabilities range between remote code execution (RCE), full-service user takeover (which might provide powerful administrative access), manipulation of AI modules, exposing sensitive data, data

GHSA-857q-xmph-p2v5: s2n-tls's mTLS API ordering may skip client authentication

### Impact An API ordering issue in s2n-tls can cause client authentication to unexpectedly not be enabled on the server when it otherwise appears to be. Server applications are impacted if client authentication is enabled by calling s2n_connection_set_config() before calling s2n_connection_set_client_auth_type(). Applications are not impacted if these APIs are called in the opposite order, or if client authentication is enabled on the config with s2n_config_set_client_auth_type(). s2n-tls clients verifying server certificates are not impacted. Impacted versions: < v1.5.0. ### Patches The patch is included in v1.5.0 [1]. ### Workarounds Applications can workaround this issue by calling s2n_connection_set_config() after calling s2n_connection_set_client_auth_type(), or by enabling client authentication on the config with s2n_config_set_client_auth_type(). If you have any questions or comments about this advisory we ask that you contact AWS/Amazon Security via our vulnerability...

GHSA-4hq2-rpgc-r8r7: Litestar has an environment Variable injection in `docs-preview.yml` workflow

### Summary Litestar's `docs-preview.yml` workflow is vulnerable to Environment Variable injection which may lead to secret exfiltration and repository manipulation. ### Environment Variable injection (`GHSL-2024-177`) The [`docs-preview.yml` workflow](https://github.com/litestar-org/litestar/blob/ffaf5616b19f6f0f4128209c8b49dbcb41568aa2/.github/workflows/docs-preview.yml) gets triggered when the `Tests And Linting` workflow completes: ```yaml on: workflow_run: workflows: [Tests And Linting] types: [completed] ``` Later, it downloads and extracts an artifact generated by the triggering workflow: ```yaml - name: Download artifact uses: dawidd6/action-download-artifact@v6 with: workflow_conclusion: success run_id: ${{ github.event.workflow_run.id }} path: docs-preview name: docs-preview ``` And reads `docs-preview/.pr_number` into an Environment Variable: ```yaml - name: Set PR number run: echo "PR_NUMBER=$(cat docs-preview/.pr_number)" >> $GITHUB_ENV ``` The ...

GHSA-pcwp-26pw-j98w: CometVisu Backend for openHAB has a path traversal vulnerability

openHAB's [CometVisuServlet](https://github.com/openhab/openhab-webui/blob/1c03c60f84388b9d7da0231df2d4ebb1e17d3fcf/bundles/org.openhab.ui.cometvisu/src/main/java/org/openhab/ui/cometvisu/internal/servlet/CometVisuServlet.java#L75) is susceptible to an unauthenticated path traversal vulnerability. Local files on the server can be requested via HTTP GET on the CometVisuServlet. This vulnerability was discovered with the help of CodeQL's [Uncontrolled data used in path expression](https://codeql.github.com/codeql-query-help/java/java-path-injection/) query. ## Impact This issue may lead to Information Disclosure.

GHSA-f729-58x4-gqgf: CometVisu Backend for openHAB affected by RCE through path traversal

CometVisu's file system endpoints don't require authentication and additionally the endpoint to update an existing file is susceptible to path traversal. This makes it possible for an attacker to overwrite existing files on the openHAB instance. If the overwritten file is a shell script that is executed at a later time this vulnerability can allow remote code execution by an attacker. This vulnerability was discovered with the help of CodeQL's [Uncontrolled data used in path expression](https://codeql.github.com/codeql-query-help/java/java-path-injection/) query. ## Impact This issue may lead up to Remote Code Execution (RCE).

GHSA-3g4c-hjhr-73rj: CometVisu Backend for openHAB has a sensitive information disclosure vulnerability

Several endpoints in the CometVisu add-on of openHAB don't require authentication. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify or to steal sensitive data. ## Impact This issue may lead to sensitive Information Disclosure.

GHSA-v7gr-mqpj-wwh3: CometVisu Backend for openHAB affected by SSRF/XSS

The [proxy endpoint](https://github.com/openhab/openhab-webui/blob/1c03c60f84388b9d7da0231df2d4ebb1e17d3fcf/bundles/org.openhab.ui.cometvisu/src/main/java/org/openhab/ui/cometvisu/internal/backend/rest/ProxyResource.java#L83) of openHAB's CometVisu add-on can be accessed without authentication. This proxy-feature can be exploited as Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) to induce GET HTTP requests to internal-only servers, in case openHAB is exposed in a non-private network. Furthermore, this proxy-feature can also be exploited as a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability, as an attacker is able to re-route a request to their server and return a page with malicious JavaScript code. Since the browser receives this data directly from the openHAB CometVisu UI, this JavaScript code will be executed with the origin of the CometVisu UI. This allows an attacker to exploit call endpoints on an openHAB server even if the openHAB server is located in a private network. (e.g. by sending an openHAB...
