CVE-2022-3095: sdk/CHANGELOG.md at master · dart-lang/sdk

The implementation of backslash parsing in the Dart URI class for versions prior to 2.18 and Flutter versions prior to 3.30 differs from the WhatWG URL standards. Dart uses the RFC 3986 syntax, which creates incompatibilities with the '\' characters in URIs, which can lead to auth bypass in webapps interpreting URIs. We recommend updating Dart or Flutter to mitigate the issue.

Vagrant Synced Folder Vagrantfile Breakout

This Metasploit module exploits a default Vagrant synced folder (shared folder) to append a Ruby payload to the Vagrant project Vagrantfile config file. By default, unless a Vagrant project explicitly disables shared folders, Vagrant mounts the project directory on the host as a writable vagrant directory on the guest virtual machine. This directory includes the project Vagrantfile configuration file. Ruby code within the Vagrantfile is loaded and executed when a user runs any vagrant command from the project directory on the host, leading to execution of Ruby code on the host.
