GHSA-wh2w-39f4-rpv2: Hyperledger Indy's update process of a DID does not check who signs the request

# Name Updating a DID with a nym transaction will be written to the ledger if neither ROLE or VERKEY are being changed, regardless of sender. # Description A malicious DID with no particular role can ask an update for another DID (but cannot modify its verkey or role). This is bad because: 1. Any DID can write a nym transaction to the ledger (i.e., any DID can spam the ledger with nym transactions). 1. Any DID can change any other DID's alias. 1. The update transaction modifies the ledger metadata associated with a DID. # Expected vs Observed We expect that if a DID (with no role) wants to update another DID (not its own or one it is the endorser), then the nodes should refuse the request. We can see that requirements in the [Indy default auth_rules](https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/blob/master/docs/source/auth_rules.md) in Section "Who is the owner" in the last point of "Endorser using". We observe that with a normal DID, we can update the field `from` for a random DID, ...

GHSA-8266-84wp-wv5c: Svelte has a potential mXSS vulnerability due to improper HTML escaping

### Summary A potential XSS vulnerability exists in Svelte for versions prior to 4.2.19. ### Details Svelte improperly escapes HTML on server-side rendering. It converts strings according to the following rules: - If the string is an attribute value: - `"` -> `&quot;` - `&` -> `&amp;` - Other characters -> No conversion - Otherwise: - `<` -> `&lt;` - `&` -> `&amp;` - Other characters -> No conversion The assumption is that attributes will always stay as such, but in some situation the final DOM tree rendered on browsers is different from what Svelte expects on server-side rendering. This may be leveraged to perform XSS attacks. More specifically, this can occur when injecting malicious content into an attribute within a `<noscript>` tag. ### PoC A vulnerable page (`+page.svelte`): ```html <script> import { page } from "$app/stores" // user input let href = $page.url.searchParams.get("href") ?? "https://example.com"; </script> <noscript> <a href={href}...

North Korean Hackers Target Developers with Malicious npm Packages

Threat actors with ties to North Korea have been observed publishing a set of malicious packages to the npm registry, indicating "coordinated and relentless" efforts to target developers with malware and steal cryptocurrency assets. The latest wave, which was observed between August 12 and 27, 2024, involved packages named temp-etherscan-api, ethersscan-api, telegram-con, helmet-validate, and

GHSA-4rr6-2v9v-wcpc: CRLF Injection in RestSharp's `RestRequest.AddHeader` method

### Summary The second argument to `RestRequest.AddHeader` (the header value) is vulnerable to CRLF injection. The same applies to `RestRequest.AddOrUpdateHeader` and `RestClient.AddDefaultHeader`. ### Details The way HTTP headers are added to a request is via the `HttpHeaders.TryAddWithoutValidation` method: <https://github.com/restsharp/RestSharp/blob/777bf194ec2d14271e7807cc704e73ec18fcaf7e/src/RestSharp/Request/HttpRequestMessageExtensions.cs#L32> This method does not check for CRLF characters in the header value. This means that any headers from a `RestSharp.RequestHeaders` object are added to the request in such a way that they are vulnerable to CRLF-injection. In general, CRLF-injection into a HTTP header (when using HTTP/1.1) means that one can inject additional HTTP headers or smuggle whole HTTP requests. ### PoC The below example code creates a console app that takes one command line variable "api key" and then makes a request to some status page with the provided key inse...

GHSA-prf6-xjxh-p698: OpenTelemetry Collector module AWS Firehose Receiver Authentication Bypass Vulnerability

### Summary OpenTelemetry Collector module [`awsfirehosereceiver`](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/tree/main/receiver/awsfirehosereceiver) allows unauthenticated remote requests, even when configured to require a key. OpenTelemetry Collector can be configured to receive CloudWatch metrics via an AWS Firehose Stream. [Firehose sets the header](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/firehose/latest/dev/httpdeliveryrequestresponse.html) `X-Amz-Firehose-Access-Key` with an arbitrary configured string. The OpenTelemetry Collector awsfirehosereceiver can optionally be configured to require this key on incoming requests. However, when this is configured it **still accepts incoming requests with no key**. ### Impact Only OpenTelemetry Collector users configured with the “[alpha](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector#alpha)” `awsfirehosereceiver` module are affected. This module was [added](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-...
