Non IE browsers don’t appear to be affected, but I haven’t tested a wide range of browsers to be sure Requests that come through from IE do NOT appear to encode all entities in the URL string, meaning they are inserted into output content directly by SSViewer::process() when rewriting hashlinks, as it directly outputs $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] **Example IE8 request** 127.0.0.1 - - [18/Jun/2014:14:13:42 +1000] “GET /site/cars/brands/toyota?one=1\”onmouseover=\”alert(‘things’);\” HTTP/1.1” 200 **Example FF request** 127.0.0.1 - - [18/Jun/2014:14:14:22 +1000] “GET /site/cars/brands/toyota?one=1\%22onmouseover=\%22alert(%27things%27);\%22 HTTP/1.1” 200 This causes any hash anchor to have the JS code inserted into the page as-is.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6782-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information, bypass security restrictions, cross-site tracing, or execute arbitrary code. Thomas Rinsma discovered that Thunderbird did not properly handle type check when handling fonts in PDF.js. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to execute arbitrary javascript code in PDF.js.

PyMySQL through 1.1.0 allows SQL injection if used with untrusted JSON input because keys are not escaped by `escape_dict`.

Before version 3.7 the bundle is vulnerable to a [security issue in JWT](https://auth0.com/blog/critical-vulnerabilities-in-json-web-token-libraries/), which can be exploited by an attacker to generate trusted device cookies on their own, effectively by-passing two-factor authentication.

### Summary By default, the Redis database server is not password-protected. Consequently, an attacker with access to the Redis server can gain read/write access to the data in Redis. The attacker can also modify the "mfst" (manifest) key to cause ArgoCD to execute any deployment, potentially leveraging ArgoCD's high privileges to take over the cluster. Updating the "cacheEntryHash" in the manifest JSON is necessary, but since it doesn't use a private key for signing its integrity, a simple script can generate a new FNV64a hash matching the new manifest values. The repo-server, unable to verify if its cache is compromised, will read the altered "mfst" key and initiate an update process for the injected deployment. It's also possible to edit the "app|resources-tree" key, causing the ArgoCD server to load any Kubernetes resource into the live manifest section of the app preview. This could lead to an information leak. The fact that the cache in Redis is neither signed nor validated, co...

Red Hat Security Advisory 2024-2937-03 - An update for nodejs is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 Extended Update Support. Issues addressed include a denial of service vulnerability.

### Background There is currently no escaping or validation of the `callback` parameter that can be passed to various OMERO.web endpoints that have JSONP enabled. One such endpoint is `/webclient/imgData/...`. As we only really use these endpoints with jQuery's own callback name generation [^1] it is quite difficult or even impossible to exploit this in vanilla OMERO.web. However, these metadata endpoints are likely to be used by many plugins.
