Threat actors behind the Interlock ransomware group have unleashed a new PHP variant of its bespoke remote access trojan (RAT) as part of a widespread campaign using a variant of ClickFix called FileFix. "Since May 2025, activity related to the Interlock RAT has been observed in connection with the LandUpdate808 (aka KongTuke) web-inject threat clusters," The DFIR Report said in a technical

gif_outputAsJpeg in phpThumb through 1.7.23 allows phpthumb.gif.php OS Command Injection via a crafted parameter value. This is fixed in 1.7.23-202506081709.

### Summary Short descriptions are not properly sanitized by the ShortDescription before being inserted as HTML using `mw.util.addSubtitle`, allowing any user to insert arbitrary HTML into the DOM by editing a page. ### Details The description provided by the user via the `{{SHORTDESC:}}` parser function is insufficiently sanitized by the `sanitize()` function, as html entities are decoded: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-extensions-ShortDescription/blob/7244b1e8b5cb6dbd7e546c5be7fed8a56e33d065/includes/Hooks/ParserHooks.php#L147-L159 Via JS, the short description is then passed to `mw.util.addSubtitle`, which inserts it as raw HTML: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-extensions-ShortDescription/blob/7244b1e8b5cb6dbd7e546c5be7fed8a56e33d065/modules/ext.shortDescription.js#L8 https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/blob/96372101b3c579d9992e8a31a3ccd90a937cac47/resources/src/mediawiki.util/util.js#L552-L563 ### PoC 1.

Bolt CMS versions 3.7.0 and earlier contain a chain of vulnerabilities that together allow an authenticated user to achieve remote code execution. A user with valid credentials can inject arbitrary PHP code into the displayname field of the user profile, which is rendered unsanitized in backend templates. The attacker can then list and rename cached session files via the /async/browse/cache/.sessions and /async/folder/rename endpoints. By renaming a .session file to a path under the publicly accessible /files/ directory with a .php extension, the attacker can turn the injected code into an executable web shell. Finally, the attacker triggers the payload via a crafted HTTP GET request to the rogue file. NOTE: The vendor announced that Bolt 3 reached end-of-life after 31 December 2021.

### Summary Short descriptions set via the [ShortDescription extension](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ShortDescription) are inserted as raw HTML by the Citizen skin, allowing any user to insert arbitrary HTML into the DOM by editing a page. ### Details The `shortdesc` property, which contains unsanitized user input, is retrieved from the OutputPage and returned as the tagline: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-skins-Citizen/blob/0d8a44011e02a081618359a1e90f462478e807aa/includes/Components/CitizenComponentPageHeading.php#L249-L251 The tagline is then provided to the template data: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-skins-Citizen/blob/0d8a44011e02a081618359a1e90f462478e807aa/includes/Components/CitizenComponentPageHeading.php#L270-L275 The template then inserts the tagline into raw HTML without doing any escaping: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-skins-Citizen/blob/0d8a44011e02a081618359a1e90f462478e807aa/templates/PageHeading.mustache#L12 ...

### Summary Page descriptions are inserted into raw HTML without proper sanitization by the Citizen skin when using the old search bar. ### Details The descriptions, which are unsanitized, are inserted as raw HTML: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-skins-Citizen/blob/d4dfc3697a82948b3b9c4d44e9a273c79bc86b87/resources/skins.citizen.search/templates/TypeaheadListItem.mustache#L18 ### PoC All of the reproduction methods require the command palette to be disabled via `$wgCitizenEnableCommandPalette = false;`. Additionally, the action API must be used as the Search Gateway via `$wgCitizenSearchGateway = 'mwActionApi';`. #### TextExtracts as the description source * Enable the TextExtracts extension * Add `$wgCitizenSearchDescriptionSource = 'textextracts';` to your LocalSettings.php * Create a page called `CitizenXSSTextExtracts` and insert `<img src="" onerror="alert('citizen search xss')">` into it * Open the search modal and search for `CitizenXSSTextExtracts` ![ima...

### Summary Arbitrary HTML can be inserted into the DOM by inserting a payload into any allowed attribute of the `<tabber>` tag. ### Details The `args` provided within the wikitext as attributes to the `<tabber>` tag are passed to the TabberComponentTabs class: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-extensions-TabberNeue/blob/3a23b703ce36cfc4128e7921841f68230be4059a/includes/Tabber.php#L76 In TabberComponentTabs, the attributes are validated before being supplied to the Tabs template. https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-extensions-TabberNeue/blob/3a23b703ce36cfc4128e7921841f68230be4059a/includes/Components/TabberComponentTabs.php#L15-L31 However, the validation is insufficient. What `Sanitizer::validateTagAttributes` does is call `validateAttributes`, which ``` * - Discards attributes not on the given list * - Unsafe style attributes are discarded * - Invalid id attributes are re-encoded ``` However, the attribute values are expected to be escaped when inserte...

RaspAP raspap-webgui 3.3.1 is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in ajax/networking/get_wgkey.php. An authenticated attacker can send a crafted POST request with a path traversal payload in the `entity` parameter to overwrite arbitrary files writable by the web server via abuse of the `tee` command used in shell execution.

### Impact goodby-csv could be used as part of a chain of methods that is exploitable when an insecure deserialization vulnerability exists in an application. This so-called "gadget chain" presents no direct threat but is a vector that can be used to achieve remote code execution if the application deserializes untrusted data due to another vulnerability. ### Patches Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to? The problem is patched with Version 1.4.3 ### Workarounds Patch `src/Goodby/CSV/Export/Standard/Collection /CallbackCollection.php`: ```diff + public function __wakeup() { + throw new \BadMethodCallException('Cannot unserialize ' . __CLASS__); + } ``` However, this is not directly exploitable; a separate vulnerability must be present to allow an attacker to pass unsafe input to unserialize(). There are no such known exploits in goodby-csv. ### References _Are there any links users can visit to find out more?_
