Researchers this month uncovered a two-year-old Linux-based remote access trojan dubbed AVrecon that enslaves Internet routers into botnet that bilks online advertisers and performs password-spraying attacks. Now new findings reveal that AVrecon is the malware engine behind a 12-year-old service called SocksEscort, which rents hacked residential and small business devices to cybercriminals looking to hide their true location online.

Vyper is a Pythonic programming language that targets the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). Prior to version 0.3.10, the ecrecover precompile does not fill the output buffer if the signature does not verify. However, the ecrecover builtin will still return whatever is at memory location 0. This means that the if the compiler has been convinced to write to the 0 memory location with specially crafted data (generally, this can happen with a hashmap access or immutable read) just before the ecrecover, a signature check might pass on an invalid signature. Version 0.3.10 contains a patch for this issue.

Cryptomator is data encryption software for users who store their files in the cloud. Prior to version 1.9.2, the MSI installer provided on the homepage allows local privilege escalation (LPE) for low privileged users, if already installed. The problem occurs as the repair function of the MSI spawns two administrative CMDs. A simple LPE is possible via a breakout. Version 1.9.2 fixes this issue.

Pligg CMS v2.0.2 (also known as Kliqqi) was discovered to contain a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in the component admin_editor.php.

Envoy is an open source edge and service proxy designed for cloud-native applications. Prior to versions 1.27.0, 1.26.4, 1.25.9, 1.24.10, and 1.23.12, a malicious client is able to construct credentials with permanent validity in some specific scenarios. This is caused by the some rare scenarios in which HMAC payload can be always valid in OAuth2 filter's check. Versions 1.27.0, 1.26.4, 1.25.9, 1.24.10, and 1.23.12 have a fix for this issue. As a workaround, avoid wildcards/prefix domain wildcards in the host's domain configuration.

### Summary Using AbstractUnArchiver for extracting an archive might lead to an arbitrary file creation and possibly remote code execution. ### Description When extracting an archive with an entry that already exists in the destination directory as a symbolic link whose target does not exist - the resolveFile() function will return the symlink's source instead of its target, which will pass the verification that ensures the file will not be extracted outside of the destination directory. Later Files.newOutputStream(), that follows symlinks by default, will actually write the entry's content to the symlink's target. ### Impact Whoever uses plexus archiver to extract an untrusted archive is vulnerable to an arbitrary file creation and possibly remote code execution. ### Technical Details In [AbstractUnArchiver.java](https://github.com/codehaus-plexus/plexus-archiver/blob/plexus-archiver-4.7.1/src/main/java/org/codehaus/plexus/archiver/AbstractUnArchiver.java#L342): ```java protecte...

North Korean nation-state actors affiliated with the Reconnaissance General Bureau (RGB) have been attributed to the JumpCloud hack following an operational security (OPSEC) blunder that exposed their actual IP address. Google-owned threat intelligence firm Mandiant attributed the activity to a threat actor it tracks under the name UNC4899, which likely shares overlaps with clusters already

WordPress File Manager Advanced Shortcode plugin does not adequately prevent uploading files with disallowed MIME types when using the shortcode. This leads to remote code execution in cases where the allowed MIME type list does not include PHP files. In the worst case, this is available to unauthenticated users, but it also works in an authenticated configuration. Versions 2.3.2 and below are affected. To install the Shortcode plugin File Manager Advanced version 5.0.5 or lower is required to keep the configuration vulnerable. Any user privileges can exploit this vulnerability which results in access to the underlying operating system with the same privileges under which the Wordpress web services run.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6242-1 - It was discovered that OpenSSH incorrectly handled loading certain PKCS#11 providers. If a user forwarded their ssh-agent to an untrusted system, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to load arbitrary libraries from the user's system and execute arbitrary code.
