Practical Guidance For Securing Your Software Supply Chain

The heightened regulatory and legal pressure on software-producing organizations to secure their supply chains and ensure the integrity of their software should come as no surprise. In the last several years, the software supply chain has become an increasingly attractive target for attackers who see opportunities to force-multiply their attacks by orders of magnitude. For example, look no

GHSA-h26w-r4m5-8rrf: CodeChecker has a Path traversal in `CodeChecker server` in the endpoint of `CodeChecker store`

## Summary ZIP files uploaded to the server-side endpoint handling a `CodeChecker store` are not properly sanitized. An attacker can exercise a path traversal to make the `CodeChecker server` load and display files from an arbitrary location on the server machine. ## Details ### Target The vulnerable endpoint is `/<PRODUCT_URL>/v6.53/CodeCheckerService@massStoreRun`. ### Exploit overview The attack is made possible by improper sanitization at one point in the process. 1. When the ZIP file is uploaded by `CodeChecker store`, it is first unzipped to a temporary directory (safely). 2. When deciding which files to insert into CodeChecker's internal database, the decision is made based on the `content_hashes.json` in the ZIP. An attacker has control over the contents of this file. 3. After reading that file, the paths specified in the JSON are normalized by this code: https://github.com/Ericsson/codechecker/blob/fa41e4e5d9566b5a4f5a80a27bddec73a5146f5a/web/server/codechecker_server/a...

GHSA-7gjr-hcc3-xfr4: Improper line feed handling in zenml

A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in zenml-io/zenml version 0.56.3 due to improper handling of line feed (`\n`) characters in component names. When a low-privileged user adds a component through the API endpoint `api/v1/workspaces/default/components` with a name containing a `\n` character, it leads to uncontrolled resource consumption. This vulnerability results in the inability of users to add new components in certain categories (e.g., 'Image Builder') and to register new stacks through the UI, thereby degrading the user experience and potentially rendering the ZenML Dashboard unusable. The issue does not affect component addition through the Web UI, as `\n` characters are properly escaped in that context. The vulnerability was tested on ZenML running in Docker, and it was observed in both Firefox and Chrome browsers.

The Marvin Attack

The Marvin Attack is a new side-channel attack on cryptographic implementations of RSA in which the attacker decrypts previously captured ciphertext by measuring, over a network, server response times to specially crafted messages. The attacker also may forge signatures with the same key as the one used for decryption. Red Hat published the principles and technical background of the Marvin Attack in September of 2023.Since that time, we have identified lots of other vulnerable implementations and have shipped fixes. Note that most of the CVEs in applications that use OpenSSL have only received

GHSA-9hcv-j9pv-qmph: TinyMCE Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability using noneditable_regexp option

### Impact A [cross-site scripting (XSS)](https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/xss/) vulnerability was discovered in TinyMCE’s content extraction code. When using the `noneditable_regexp` option, specially crafted HTML attributes containing malicious code were able to be executed when content was extracted from the editor. ### Patches This vulnerability has been patched in TinyMCE 7.2.0, TinyMCE 6.8.4 and TinyMCE 5.11.0 LTS by ensuring that, when using the `noneditable_regexp` option, any content within an attribute is properly verified to match the configured regular expression before being added. ### Fix To avoid this vulnerability: * Upgrade to TinyMCE 7.2.0 or higher. * Upgrade to TinyMCE 6.8.4 or higher for TinyMCE 6.x. * Upgrade to TinyMCE 5.11.0 LTS or higher for TinyMCE 5.x (only available as part of commercial [long-term support](https://www.tiny.cloud/long-term-support/) contract). ### References * [TinyMCE 6.8.4](https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/tinymce/6/6.8.4-release-not...

GHSA-w9jx-4g6g-rp7x: TinyMCE Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability using noscript elements

### Impact A [cross-site scripting (XSS)](https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/xss/) vulnerability was discovered in TinyMCE’s content parsing code. This allowed specially crafted noscript elements containing malicious code to be executed when that content was loaded into the editor. ### Patches This vulnerability has been patched in TinyMCE 7.2.0, TinyMCE 6.8.4 and TinyMCE 5.11.0 LTS by ensuring that content within noscript elements are properly parsed. ### Fix To avoid this vulnerability: * Upgrade to TinyMCE 7.2.0 or higher. * Upgrade to TinyMCE 6.8.4 or higher for TinyMCE 6.x. * Upgrade to TinyMCE 5.11.0 LTS or higher for TinyMCE 5.x (only available as part of commercial [long-term support](https://www.tiny.cloud/long-term-support/) contract). ### Acknowledgements Tiny thanks [Malav Khatri](https://malavkhatri.com/) and another reporter for their help identifying this vulnerability. ### References * [TinyMCE 6.8.4](https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/tinymce/6/6.8.4-release-notes/#...
