Fides is an open-source privacy engineering platform for managing the fulfillment of data privacy requests in a runtime environment, and the enforcement of privacy regulations in code. The Fides webserver API allows users to retrieve its configuration using the `GET api/v1/config` endpoint. The configuration data is filtered to suppress most sensitive configuration information before it is returned to the user, but even the filtered data contains information about the internals and the backend infrastructure, such as various settings, servers’ addresses and ports and database username. This information is useful for administrative users as well as attackers, thus it should not be revealed to low-privileged users. This vulnerability allows Admin UI users with roles lower than the owner role e.g. the viewer role to retrieve the config information using the API. The vulnerability has been patched in Fides version `2.22.1`.

Critical security flaws have been disclosed in the Open Authorization (OAuth) implementation of popular online services such as Grammarly, Vidio, and Bukalapak, building upon previous shortcomings uncovered in Booking[.]com and Expo. The weaknesses, now addressed by the respective companies following responsible disclosure between February and April 2023, could have allowed malicious actors to

Hundreds of millions of users of Grammarly, Vidio, and the Indonesian e-commerce giant Bukalapak are at risk for financial fraud and credential theft due to OAuth misfires — and other online services likely have the same problems.

While application development has evolved rapidly, the API management suites used to access these services remain a spooky reminder of a different era. Introducing new API management infrastructure with these legacy models still poses challenges for organizations as they modernize. Transitioning from monolithic architectures to agile microservices empowers developers to make quick changes. Using

With the record-setting growth of consumer-focused AI productivity tools like ChatGPT, artificial intelligence—formerly the realm of data science and engineering teams—has become a resource available to every employee.  From a productivity perspective, that’s fantastic. Unfortunately for IT and security teams, it also means you may have hundreds of people in your organization using a new tool in

The Migration, Backup, Staging - WPvivid plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in versions up to, and including, 0.9.91 via Google Drive API secrets stored in plaintext in the publicly visible plugin source. This could allow unauthenticated attackers to impersonate the WPVivid Google Drive account via the API if they can trick a user into reauthenticating via another vulnerability or social engineering.

### Impact When login via the OAuth method, the identityOAuth parameters, sent in a GET request is vulnerable to XSS and XWiki syntax injection. This allows remote code execution via the groovy macro and thus affects the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the whole XWiki installation. The vulnerability is in [this part](https://github.com/xwikisas/identity-oauth/blob/master/ui/src/main/resources/IdentityOAuth/LoginUIExtension.vm#L58) of the code. ### Patches The issue has been fixed in Identity OAuth version 1.6 by https://github.com/xwikisas/identity-oauth/commit/d805d3154b17c6bf455ddf5deb0a3461a3833bc6 . The fix is in the content of the [IdentityOAuth/LoginUIExtension](https://github.com/xwikisas/identity-oauth/commit/d805d3154b17c6bf455ddf5deb0a3461a3833bc6#diff-2ab2e0716443d790d7d798320e4a45151661f4eca5440331f4a227b29c87c188) file ### Workarounds There are no known workarounds besides upgrading. ### References _Are there any links users can visit to find out more?...
