Researchers Uncover TLS Bootstrap Attack on Azure Kubernetes Clusters

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed a security flaw impacting Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Services that, if successfully exploited, could allow an attacker to escalate their privileges and access credentials for services used by the cluster. "An attacker with command execution in a Pod running within an affected Azure Kubernetes Services cluster could download the configuration used to

GHSA-94cc-xjxr-pwvf: DSpace Cross Site Scripting (XSS) via a deposited HTML/XML document

### Impact In DSpace 7.0 through 7.6.1, when an HTML, XML or JavaScript Bitstream is downloaded, the user's browser _may_ execute any embedded JavaScript. If that embedded JavaScript is malicious, there is a risk of an XSS attack. This attack may only be initialized by a user who already has Submitter privileges in the repository. The submitter must upload the malicious HTML/XML/JavaScript file themselves. The attack itself would not occur until a different authenticated user downloads the malicious file. CORS and CSRF protection built into DSpace help to limit the impact of the attack (and may block it in some scenarios). If the repository is configured to only download HTML / XML / JavaScript Bitstreams using the [`Content-Disposition: attachment`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Content-Disposition) header, then the attack is no longer possible. See "Workarounds" below. ### Patches The fix is included in both 8.0 and 7.6.2. Please upgrade to one of t...

GHSA-wrvh-rcmr-9qfc: @strapi/plugin-users-permissions leaks 3rd party authentication tokens and authentication bypass

### Summary By combining two vulnerabilities (an `Open Redirect` and `session token sent as URL query parameter`) in Strapi framework is its possible of an unauthenticated attacker to bypass authentication mechanisms and retrieve the 3rd party tokens. The attack requires user interaction (one click). ### Impact Unauthenticated attackers can leverage two vulnerabilities to obtain an 3rd party token and the bypass authentication of Strapi apps. ### Technical details #### Vulnerability 1: Open Redirect ##### Description Open redirection vulnerabilities arise when an application incorporates user-controllable data into the target of a redirection in an unsafe way. An attacker can construct a URL within the application that causes a redirection to an arbitrary external domain. In the specific context of Strapi, this vulnerability allows the SSO token to be stolen, allowing an attacker to authenticate himself within the application. ##### Remediation If possible, applications shoul...

Creating a Web Application Firewall in Red Hat OpenShift

In the last few years, several Red Hat customers have asked how to add a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to the OpenShift ingress to protect all externally facing applications.A WAF is a Layer 7 capability that protects applications against some types of web-based attacks, including but not limited to Cross Site Request Forgery (CRSF), Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) and SQL injection (for a more comprehensive list of all known web based attacks, see here).Unfortunately, OpenShift does not have these capabilities included within the default ingress router, and as a result, alternate solutions must

GHSA-25gq-jvx2-vg9x: Silverstripe X-Forwarded-Host request hostname injection

A potential hostname injection vulnerability has been found which could allow attackers to alter url resolution. If a request contains the X-Forwarded-Host HTTP header a website would then use its value in place of the actual HTTP hostname. In cases where caching is enabled, this could allow an attacker to potentially embed a remote url as the base_url for any site. This would then cause other visitors to the site to be redirected unknowingly. This header is necessary for servers running behind a reverse proxy (such as nginx). Such servers are likely not vulnerable to this risk. A fix has been merged into the default installer, although existing projects which do not run behind a reverse proxy should update their htaccess as below: ``` <IfModule mod_headers.c> # Remove X-Forwarded-Host header sent as a part of any request from the web RequestHeader unset X-Forwarded-Host </IfModule> ```

GHSA-9895-26wr-4fgv: EZsystems Remote code execution in file uploads

This Security Advisory is about a vulnerability in the way eZ Platform and eZ Publish Legacy handles file uploads, which can in the worst case lead to remote code execution (RCE), a very serious threat. An attacker would need access to uploading files to be able to exploit the vulnerability, so if you have strict controls on this and trust all who have this permission, you're not affected. On the basis of the tests we have made, we also believe the vulnerability cannot be exploited as long as our recommended vhost configuration is used. Here is the v2.5 recommendation for Nginx, as an example: https://github.com/ezsystems/ezplatform/blob/2.5/doc/nginx/vhost.template#L31 This vhost template specifies that only the file app.php in the web root is executed, while vulnerable configurations allow execution of any php file. Apache is affected in the same way as Nginx, and is also protected by using the recommended configuration. The build-in webserver in PHP stays vulnerable, as it doesn't...

GHSA-pqjm-xcp8-wgmm: Ez Platform and Legacy are prone to an insecure interpretation of PHP/PHAR uploads

The eZ Platform and Legacy are affected by an issue related to how uploaded PHP and PHAR files are handled, and consists of two parts: 1. Web server configuration, and 2. Disabling the PHAR stream wrapper. **1. WEB SERVER CONFIGURATION** The sample web server configuration in our documentation can in some cases allow the execution of uploaded PHP/PHAR code. This can be abused to allow priviledge escalation and breach of content access controls, among other things. Please ensure that your web server will not execute files in directories were files may be uploaded, such as web/var/ and ezpublish_legacy/var/ As an example, here is how you can make Apache return HTTP 403 Forbidden for a number of executable file types in your eZ Platform var directory. Please adapt it to your needs. It is then possible to enable logging of HTTP 403 in a separate log file if you wish, you could do this to see if someone is trying to abuse the server. ``` RewriteEngine On # disable .php(3) and other exten...
