A flaw was found in Kroxylicious. When establishing the connection with the upstream Kafka server using a TLS secured connection, Kroxylicious fails to properly verify the server's hostname, resulting in an insecure connection. For a successful attack to be performed, the attacker needs to perform a Man-in-the-Middle attack or compromise any external systems, such as DNS or network routing configuration. This issue is considered a high complexity attack, with additional high privileges required, as the attack would need access to the Kroxylicious configuration or a peer system. The result of a successful attack impacts both data integrity and confidentiality.
# Name Updating a DID with a nym transaction will be written to the ledger if neither ROLE or VERKEY are being changed, regardless of sender. # Description A malicious DID with no particular role can ask an update for another DID (but cannot modify its verkey or role). This is bad because: 1. Any DID can write a nym transaction to the ledger (i.e., any DID can spam the ledger with nym transactions). 1. Any DID can change any other DID's alias. 1. The update transaction modifies the ledger metadata associated with a DID. # Expected vs Observed We expect that if a DID (with no role) wants to update another DID (not its own or one it is the endorser), then the nodes should refuse the request. We can see that requirements in the [Indy default auth_rules](https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/blob/master/docs/source/auth_rules.md) in Section "Who is the owner" in the last point of "Endorser using". We observe that with a normal DID, we can update the field `from` for a random DID, ...
### Summary A potential XSS vulnerability exists in Svelte for versions prior to 4.2.19. ### Details Svelte improperly escapes HTML on server-side rendering. It converts strings according to the following rules: - If the string is an attribute value: - `"` -> `"` - `&` -> `&` - Other characters -> No conversion - Otherwise: - `<` -> `<` - `&` -> `&` - Other characters -> No conversion The assumption is that attributes will always stay as such, but in some situation the final DOM tree rendered on browsers is different from what Svelte expects on server-side rendering. This may be leveraged to perform XSS attacks. More specifically, this can occur when injecting malicious content into an attribute within a `<noscript>` tag. ### PoC A vulnerable page (`+page.svelte`): ```html <script> import { page } from "$app/stores" // user input let href = $page.url.searchParams.get("href") ?? "https://example.com"; </script> <noscript> <a href={href}...
Cybersecurity researchers have uncovered a novel malware campaign that leverages Google Sheets as a command-and-control (C2) mechanism. The activity, detected by Proofpoint starting August 5, 2024, impersonates tax authorities from governments in Europe, Asia, and the U.S., with the goal of targeting over 70 organizations worldwide by means of a bespoke tool called Voldemort that's equipped to
