A vulnerability in the GraphCypherQAChain class of langchain-ai/langchainjs versions 0.2.5 and all versions with this class allows for prompt injection, leading to SQL injection. This vulnerability permits unauthorized data manipulation, data exfiltration, denial of service (DoS) by deleting all data, breaches in multi-tenant security environments, and data integrity issues. Attackers can create, update, or delete nodes and relationships without proper authorization, extract sensitive data, disrupt services, access data across different tenants, and compromise the integrity of the database.

Three malicious packages published to the npm registry in September 2024 have been found to contain a known malware called BeaverTail, a JavaScript downloader and information stealer linked to an ongoing North Korean campaign tracked as Contagious Interview. The Datadog Security Research team is monitoring the activity under the name Tenacious Pungsan, which is also known by the monikers

Useragent is a user agent parser for Node.js. All versions as of time of publication contain one or more regular expressions that are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS).

The following bundled files within the Mermaid NPM package contain a bundled version of DOMPurify that is vulnerable to https://github.com/cure53/DOMPurify/security/advisories/GHSA-mmhx-hmjr-r674, potentially resulting in an XSS attack. This affects the built: - `dist/mermaid.min.js` - `dist/mermaid.js` - `dist/mermaid.esm.mjs` - `dist/mermaid.esm.min.mjs` This will also affect users that use the above files via a CDN link, e.g. `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/mermaid.min.js` **Users that use the default NPM export of `mermaid`, e.g. `import mermaid from 'mermaid'`, or the `dist/mermaid.core.mjs` file, do not use this bundled version of DOMPurify, and can easily update using their package manager with something like `npm audit fix`.** ### Patches - `develop` branch: 6c785c93166c151d27d328ddf68a13d9d65adc00 - backport to v10: 92a07ffe40aab2769dd1c3431b4eb5beac282b34

### Impact This can be leveraged to gain access to higher-privilege endpoints, e.g. if you get a user with admin privileges to run the code, you can potentially elevate all users and grant them admin privileges or access protected content. ### Patches Will be patched in 14.3.1 and 15.0.0. ### Workarounds Ensure that access to the Dictionary section is only granted to trusted users.

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a number of suspicious packages published to the npm registry that are designed to harvest Ethereum private keys and gain remote access to the machine via the secure shell (SSH) protocol. The packages attempt to "gain SSH access to the victim's machine by writing the attacker’s SSH public key in the root user’s authorized_keys file," software supply

### Summary In `elliptic`-based version, `loadUncompressedPublicKey` has a check that the public key is on the curve: https://github.com/cryptocoinjs/secp256k1-node/blob/6d3474b81d073cc9c8cc8cfadb580c84f8df5248/lib/elliptic.js#L37-L39 `loadCompressedPublicKey` is, however, missing that check: https://github.com/cryptocoinjs/secp256k1-node/blob/6d3474b81d073cc9c8cc8cfadb580c84f8df5248/lib/elliptic.js#L17-L19 That allows the attacker to use public keys on low-cardinality curves to extract enough information to fully restore the private key from as little as 11 ECDH sessions, and very cheaply on compute power Other operations on public keys are also affected, including e.g. `publicKeyVerify()` incorrectly returning `true` on those invalid keys, and e.g. `publicKeyTweakMul()` also returning predictable outcomes allowing to restore the tweak ### Details The curve equation is `Y^2 = X^3 + 7`, and it restores `Y` from `X` in `loadCompressedPublicKey`, using `Y = sqrt(X^3 + 7)`, but whe...
