Crafting and Communicating Your Cybersecurity Strategy for Board Buy-In

In an era where digital transformation drives business across sectors, cybersecurity has transcended its traditional operational role to become a cornerstone of corporate strategy and risk management. This evolution demands a shift in how cybersecurity leaders—particularly Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs)—articulate the value and urgency of cybersecurity investments to their boards.&

Hackers Exploiting Popular Document Publishing Sites for Phishing Attacks

Threat actors are leveraging digital document publishing (DDP) sites hosted on platforms like FlipSnack, Issuu, Marq, Publuu, RelayTo, and Simplebooklet for carrying out phishing, credential harvesting, and session token theft, once again underscoring how threat actors are repurposing legitimate services for malicious ends. "Hosting phishing lures on DDP sites increases the likelihood

GHSA-f6g6-pjgc-5cj5: Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Apache Hop Engine

Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Apache Hop Engine. This issue affects Apache Hop Engine: before 2.8.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.8.0, which fixes the issue. When Hop Server writes links to the PrepareExecutionPipelineServlet page one of the parameters provided to the user was not properly escaped. The variable not properly escaped is the "id", which is not directly accessible by users creating pipelines making the risk of exploiting this low. This issue only affects users using the Hop Server component and does not directly affect the client.

GHSA-389c-cf87-qmwj: Cross-site Scripting in livewire/livewire

Versions of the package livewire/livewire from 3.3.5 and before 3.4.9 are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) when a page uses [Url] for a property. An attacker can inject HTML code in the context of the user's browser session by crafting a malicious link and convincing the user to click on it.

GHSA-fj7x-q9j7-g6q6: Black vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS)

Versions of the package black before 24.3.0 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) via the lines_with_leading_tabs_expanded function in the strings.py file. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious input that causes a denial of service. Exploiting this vulnerability is possible when running Black on untrusted input, or if you habitually put thousands of leading tab characters in your docstrings.

GHSA-rj29-j2g4-77q8: [TagAwareCipher] - Decryption Failure (Regex Match)

### Impact Vulnerability in **SecureProps** involves a regex failing to detect tags during decryption of encrypted data. This occurs when the encrypted data has been encoded with `NullEncoder` and passed to `TagAwareCipher`, and contains special characters such as `\n`. As a result, the decryption process is skipped since the tags are not detected. This causes the encrypted data to be returned in plain format. The vulnerability affects users who implement `TagAwareCipher` with any base cipher that has `NullEncoder` (not default). ### Patches The patch for the issue has been released. Users are advised to update to version **1.2.2**. ### Workarounds **The main recommendation is to update to the latest version as there are no breaking changes.** If that's not possible, you can use the default `Base64Encoder` with the base cipher decorated with `TagAwareCipher` to prevent special characters in the encrypted string from interfering with regex tag detection logic. This workaroun...

GHSA-vcc3-rw6f-jv97: Use-after-free in libxml2 via Nokogiri::XML::Reader

### Summary Nokogiri upgrades its dependency libxml2 as follows: - v1.15.6 upgrades libxml2 to 2.11.7 from 2.11.6 - v1.16.2 upgrades libxml2 to 2.12.5 from 2.12.4 libxml2 v2.11.7 and v2.12.5 address the following vulnerability: CVE-2024-25062 / https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2024-25062 - described at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/issues/604 - patched by https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/commit/92721970 Please note that this advisory only applies to the CRuby implementation of Nokogiri, and only if the packaged libraries are being used. If you've overridden defaults at installation time to use system libraries instead of packaged libraries, you should instead pay attention to your distro's libxml2 release announcements. JRuby users are not affected. ### Severity The Nokogiri maintainers have evaluated this as **Moderate**. ### Impact From the CVE description, this issue applies to the `xmlTextReader` module (which underlies `Nokogiri::XML::...

GHSA-wj85-w4f4-xh8h: Denial of service via regular expression

### Impact All historical installations of django-wiki are vulnerable to maliciously crafted article content, that can cause severe use of server CPU through a regular expression loop. ### Patches ### Workarounds Close off access to create and edit articles by anonymous users. ### References _Are there any links users can visit to find out more?_

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...
