Chrome issued a security update that patches two critical vulnerabilities. One of which was reported by Apple

A now-patched security flaw in the Opera web browser could have enabled a malicious extension to gain unauthorized, full access to private APIs. The attack, codenamed CrossBarking, could have made it possible to conduct actions such as capturing screenshots, modifying browser settings, and account hijacking, Guardio Labs said. To demonstrate the issue, the company said it managed to publish a

Cybersecurity researchers have uncovered an ongoing malvertising campaign that abuses Meta's advertising platform and hijacked Facebook accounts to distribute information known as SYS01stealer. "The hackers behind the campaign use trusted brands to expand their reach," Bitdefender Labs said in a report shared with The Hacker News. "The malvertising campaign leverages nearly a hundred malicious

The jsonProxy.php endpoint on the ABB BMS/BAS controller is vulnerable to an unauthenticated Denial of Service (DoS) attack. An attacker can remotely restart the main Java server by accessing the FTControlServlet with the restart parameter. The endpoint proxies requests to localhost without requiring authentication, enabling attackers to disrupt system availability by repeatedly triggering server restarts.

The jsonProxy.php endpoint on the ABB BMS/BAS controller is vulnerable to unauthorized project file disclosure. An unauthenticated remote attacker can issue a GET request abusing the DownloadProject servlet to download sensitive project files. The jsonProxy.php script bypasses authentication by proxying requests to localhost (AspectFT Automation Application Server), granting remote attackers unauthorized access to internal Java servlets. This exposes potentially sensitive project data and configuration details without requiring authentication.

The ABB BMS/BAS controller is vulnerable to remote, arbitrary servlet inclusion. The jsonProxy.php endpoint allows unauthenticated remote attackers to access internal services by proxying requests to localhost. This results in an authentication bypass, enabling attackers to interact with multiple java servlets without authorization, potentially exposing sensitive system functions and information.

ABB Cylon Aspect version 3.08.01 is deployed to unauthorized actors with debugging code still enabled or active, which can create unintended entry points or expose sensitive information.

Apple Security Advisory 10-28-2024-1 - iOS 18.1 and iPadOS 18.1 addresses information leakage, out of bounds read, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.

A little over three dozen security vulnerabilities have been disclosed in various open-source artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) models, some of which could lead to remote code execution and information theft. The flaws, identified in tools like ChuanhuChatGPT, Lunary, and LocalAI, have been reported as part of Protect AI's Huntr bug bounty platform. The most severe of the

Apache NiFi 1.10.0 through 1.27.0 and 2.0.0-M1 through 2.0.0-M3 support a description field for Parameters in a Parameter Context configuration that is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. An authenticated user, authorized to configure a Parameter Context, can enter arbitrary JavaScript code, which the client browser will execute within the session context of the authenticated user. Upgrading to Apache NiFi 1.28.0 or 2.0.0-M4 is the recommended mitigation.
