New web targets for the discerning hacker

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Canon Medical Vitrea View 7.x before 7.7.6 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) the input after the error subdirectory to the /vitrea-view/error/ subdirectory, or the (2) groupID, (3) offset, or (4) limit parameter to an Administrative Panel (Group and Users) page. There is a risk of an attacker retrieving patient information.

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through version 5.18.9. A type confusion bug in nft_set_elem_init (leading to a buffer overflow) could be used by a local attacker to escalate privileges. The attacker can obtain root access, but must start with an unprivileged user namespace to obtain CAP_NET_ADMIN access. The issue exists in nft_setelem_parse_data in net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c.

A information disclosure vulnerability exists in Rockert.Chat <v5 due to /api/v1/chat.getThreadsList lack of sanitization of user inputs and can therefore leak private thread messages to unauthorized users via Mongo DB injection.

An information disclosure vulnerability exists in Rocket.Chat <v5, <v4.8.2 and <v4.7.5 due to the actionLinkHandler method was found to allow Message ID Enumeration with Regex MongoDB queries.

An information disclosure vulnerability exists in Rocket.Chat <v5, <v4.8.2 and <v4.7.5 since the getReadReceipts Meteor server method does not properly filter user inputs that are passed to MongoDB queries, allowing $regex queries to enumerate arbitrary Message IDs.

An improper access control vulnerability exists in Rocket.Chat <v5, <v4.8.2 and <v4.7.5 due to input data in the getUsersOfRoom Meteor server method is not type validated, so that MongoDB query operator objects are accepted by the server, so that instead of a matching rid String a$regex query can be executed, bypassing the room access permission check for every but the first matching room.

A threat actor tracked under the moniker Webworm has been linked to bespoke Windows-based remote access trojans, some of which are said to be in pre-deployment or testing phases. "The group has developed customized versions of three older remote access trojans (RATs), including Trochilus RAT, Gh0st RAT, and 9002 RAT," the Symantec Threat Hunter team, part of Broadcom Software, said in a report
