### Impact **Vulnerability Type:** Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) **Affected Users:** All users of the Django template engine for Fiber prior to the patch. This vulnerability specifically impacts web applications that render user-supplied data through this template engine, potentially leading to the execution of malicious scripts in users' browsers when visiting affected web pages. ### Patches The vulnerability has been addressed. The template engine now defaults to having autoescape set to `true`, effectively mitigating the risk of XSS attacks. Users are advised to upgrade to the latest version of the Django template engine for Fiber, where this security update is implemented. Ensure that the version of the template engine being used is the latest, post-patch version. ### Workarounds For users unable to upgrade immediately to the patched version, a workaround involves manually implementing autoescaping within individual Django templates. This method includes adding specific tags in...

### Summary Nginx-UI is a web interface to manage Nginx configurations. It is vulnerable to arbitrary command execution by abusing the configuration settings. ### Details The `Home > Preference` page exposes a list of system settings such as `Run Mode`, `Jwt Secret`, `Node Secret` and `Terminal Start Command`. The latter is used to specify the command to be executed when a user opens a terminal from the web interface. While the UI doesn't allow users to modify the `Terminal Start Command` setting, it is possible to do so by sending a request to the [API](https://github.com/0xJacky/nginx-ui/blob/04bf8ec487f06ab17a9fb7f34a28766e5f53885e/api/system/router.go#L13). ```go func InitPrivateRouter(r *gin.RouterGroup) { r.GET("settings", GetSettings) r.POST("settings", SaveSettings) ... } ``` The [`SaveSettings`](https://github.com/0xJacky/nginx-ui/blob/04bf8ec487f06ab17a9fb7f34a28766e5f53885e/api/system/settings.go#L18) function is used to save the settings. It is protected by t...

### Summary The `Home > Preference` page exposes a small list of nginx settings such as `Nginx Access Log Path` and `Nginx Error Log Path`. However, the API also exposes `test_config_cmd`, `reload_cmd` and `restart_cmd`. While the UI doesn't allow users to modify any of these settings, it is possible to do so by sending a request to the [API](https://github.com/0xJacky/nginx-ui/blob/04bf8ec487f06ab17a9fb7f34a28766e5f53885e/api/system/router.go#L13). ```go func InitPrivateRouter(r *gin.RouterGroup) { r.GET("settings", GetSettings) r.POST("settings", SaveSettings) ... } ``` The [`SaveSettings`](https://github.com/0xJacky/nginx-ui/blob/04bf8ec487f06ab17a9fb7f34a28766e5f53885e/api/system/settings.go#L18) function is used to save the settings. It is protected by the [`authRequired`](https://github.com/0xJacky/nginx-ui/blob/04bf8ec487f06ab17a9fb7f34a28766e5f53885e/router/middleware.go#L45) middleware, which requires a valid JWT token or a `X-Node-Secret` which must equal the `Nod...

### Summary The [`OrderAndPaginate`](https://github.com/0xjacky/nginx-ui/blob/04bf8ec487f06ab17a9fb7f34a28766e5f53885e/model/model.go#L99C4) function is used to order and paginate data. It is defined as follows: ```go func OrderAndPaginate(c *gin.Context) func(db *gorm.DB) *gorm.DB { return func(db *gorm.DB) *gorm.DB { sort := c.DefaultQuery("order", "desc") order := fmt.Sprintf("`%s` %s", DefaultQuery(c, "sort_by", "id"), sort) db = db.Order(order) ... } } ``` By using [`DefaultQuery`](https://github.com/0xjacky/nginx-ui/blob/04bf8ec487f06ab17a9fb7f34a28766e5f53885e/model/model.go#L278-L287), the `"desc"` and `"id"` values are used as default values if the query parameters are not set. Thus, the `order` and `sort_by` query parameter are user-controlled and are being appended to the `order` variable without any sanitization. The same happens with [`SortOrder`](https://github.com/0xjacky/nginx-ui/blob/04bf8ec487f06ab17a9fb7f34a28766e5f53885e/model/model.go#L91), but it doesn...

An access bypass vulnerability exists when the experimental Workspaces module in Drupal 8 core is enabled. This can be mitigated by disabling the Workspaces module. It does not affect any release other than Drupal 8.7.4.

The ubiquity of GitHub in information technology (IT) environments has made it a lucrative choice for threat actors to host and deliver malicious payloads and act as dead drop resolvers, command-and-control, and data exfiltration points. “Using GitHub services for malicious infrastructure allows adversaries to blend in with legitimate network traffic, often bypassing traditional security

The `xmlattr` filter in affected versions of Jinja accepts keys containing spaces. XML/HTML attributes cannot contain spaces, as each would then be interpreted as a separate attribute. If an application accepts keys (as opposed to only values) as user input, and renders these in pages that other users see as well, an attacker could use this to inject other attributes and perform XSS. Note that accepting keys as user input is not common or a particularly intended use case of the `xmlattr` filter, and an application doing so should already be verifying what keys are provided regardless of this fix.

### Impact _What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?_ An information leakage vulnerability is present in [`cdo-local-uuid`](https://pypi.org/project/cdo-local-uuid/) at version `0.4.0`, and in [`case-utils`](https://pypi.org/project/case-utils/) in unpatched versions (matching the pattern `0.x.0`) at and since `0.5.0`, before `0.15.0`. The vulnerability stems from a Python function, `cdo_local_uuid.local_uuid()`, and its original implementation `case_utils.local_uuid()`. Henceforth, both will be called `local_uuid()`. `local_uuid()` generates UUIDv5s using a deterministic pseudorandom number stream. This was written to make graph application demonstrations generate consistent, version-controllable output with minimal noise caused by demonstration re-runs. Part of the information used to keep individual examples' generated output distinct from one another is seed information from the caller's environment, particularly the program's argument vector. The present working d...
