Plus: Hackers reveal flaws in crypto wallets holding $1 billion, a massive breach of Danish electric utilities, and more.
A buffer overflow in websockets in UnrealIRCd 6.1.0 through 6.1.3 before 6.1.4 allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to crash the server by sending an oversized packet (if a websocket port is open). Remote code execution might be possible on some uncommon, older platforms.
### Impact Versions [v9.26.0](https://github.com/octokit/webhooks.js/releases/tag/v9.26.0), [v10.9.x](https://github.com/octokit/webhooks.js/releases/tag/v10.9.1)), [v11.1.x](https://github.com/octokit/webhooks.js/releases/tag/v11.1.1), [v12.0.x](https://github.com/octokit/webhooks.js/releases/tag/v12.0.3) all contained the code that would throw the error. Specifically, during a pentest we encountered a bug in the octokit/webhooks library (a dependency of Probot, a framework for building Github Apps). The resulting request was found to cause an uncaught exception that ends the nodejs process. The problem is caused by an issue with error handling in the @octokit/webhooks library because the error can be undefined in some cases. Credit goes to @pb82 (for the early analysis) and @rh-tguittet (for discovery). ### Patches Maintenance releases for the Error being thrown by the verify method in [octokit/webhooks.js](https://github.com/octokit/webhooks.js) * v12 - [v12.0.4](https://githu...
### Summary The value of `nvdApiKey` configuration parameter is logged in clear text in debug mode. ### Details The NVD API key is a kind of secret and should be treated like other secrets when logging in debug mode. Expecting the same behavior as for several password configurations: just print `******` Note that while the NVD API Key is an access token for the NVD API - they are not that sensitive. The only thing an NVD API Token grants is a higher rate limit when making calls to publicly available data. The data available from the NVD API is the same whether you have an API Key or not. ### PoC The nvdApiKey is configured to use an environment variable; when running `mvn -X dependency-check:check` the clear value is logged twice. ### Impact The NVD API key is a kind of secret and should not be exposed. If stolen, an attacker can use this key to obtain already public information. ### UPDATE ### The issue isn't still resoved in 9.0.6: Create a `pom.xml` with the following configur...
octokit/webhooks is a GitHub webhook events toolset for Node.js. Starting in 9.26.0 and prior to 9.26.3, 10.9.2, 11.1.2, and 12.0.4, there is a problem caused by an issue with error handling in the @octokit/webhooks library because the error can be undefined in some cases. The resulting request was found to cause an uncaught exception that ends the nodejs process. The bug is fixed in octokit/webhooks.js 9.26.3, 10.9.2, 11.1.2, and 12.0.4, app.js 14.02, octokit.js 3.1.2, and Protobot 12.3.3.
Bazarr manages and downloads subtitles. In version 1.2.4, the proxy method in bazarr/bazarr/app/ui.py does not validate the user-controlled protocol and url variables and passes them to requests.get() without any sanitization, which leads to a blind server-side request forgery (SSRF). This issue allows for crafting GET requests to internal and external resources on behalf of the server. 1.3.1 contains a partial fix, which limits the vulnerability to HTTP/HTTPS protocols.
PKP Web Application Library (PKP-WAL) versions 3.4.0-3 and below, as used in Open Journal Systems (OJS), Open Monograph Press (OMP), and Open Preprint Systems (OPS) before versions 3.4.0-4 or 3.3.0-16, suffer from a NativeImportExportPlugin related remote code execution vulnerability.
When handling DTLS-SRTP for media setup, Asterisk version 20.1.0 is susceptible to denial of service due to a race condition in the hello handshake phase of the DTLS protocol. This attack can be done continuously, thus denying new DTLS-SRTP encrypted calls during the attack.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6233-2 - USN-6233-1 fixed vulnerabilities in YAJL. This update provides the corresponding updates for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 23.04. It was discovered that YAJL was not properly performing bounds checks when decoding a string with escape sequences. If a user or automated system using YAJL were tricked into processing specially crafted input, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service .
Red Hat Security Advisory 2023-7861-03 - A security update is now available for Red Hat build of Keycloak 22.0.7 images running on OpenShift Container Platform. Issues addressed include bypass and cross site scripting vulnerabilities.
