October is a self-hosted Content Management System (CMS) platform based on the Laravel PHP Framework. This vulnerability only affects installations that rely on the safe mode restriction, commonly used when providing public access to the admin panel. Assuming an attacker has access to the admin panel and permission to open the "Editor" section, they can bypass the Safe Mode (`cms.safe_mode`) restriction to introduce new PHP code in a CMS template using a specially crafted request. The issue has been patched in versions 2.2.34 and 3.0.66.

Apache Commons Text performs variable interpolation, allowing properties to be dynamically evaluated and expanded. The standard format for interpolation is "${prefix:name}", where "prefix" is used to locate an instance of org.apache.commons.text.lookup.StringLookup that performs the interpolation. Starting with version 1.5 and continuing through 1.9, the set of default Lookup instances included interpolators that could result in arbitrary code execution or contact with remote servers. These lookups are: - "script" - execute expressions using the JVM script execution engine (javax.script) - "dns" - resolve dns records - "url" - load values from urls, including from remote servers Applications using the interpolation defaults in the affected versions may be vulnerable to remote code execution or unintentional contact with remote servers if untrusted configuration values are used. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache Commons Text 1.10.0, which disables the problematic interpolators ...

By Jon Munshaw.  Welcome to this week’s edition of the Threat Source newsletter.  October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Which, if you’ve been on social media at all the past 13 days or read any cybersecurity news website, you surely know already.  As it does every year, I saw Cybersecurity Awareness Month kick off with a lot of snark and memes of people joking about what it even means to be “aware” of cybersecurity and why we even have this month at all. And I get why it’s easy to poke fun at, it is at its core a marketing-driven campaign, and hardcore security experts and researchers have notoriously pushed back against this being a marketing-driven field.  I’m not saying there should be Cybersecurity Awareness Month mascots brought to life on the floor of Black Hat, but it is probably time to pump the brakes on the skepticism and snark. After all, this week should be about broadening the security community, not trying to exclude others from it. I came to Talos ...

Kylin's cube designer function has a command injection vulnerability when overwriting system parameters in the configuration overwrites menu. RCE can be implemented by closing the single quotation marks around the parameter value of “-- conf=� to inject any operating system command into the command line parameters. This vulnerability affects Kylin 2 version 2.6.5 and earlier, Kylin 3 version 3.1.2 and earlier, and Kylin 4 version 4.0.1 and earlier.

### Impact A potential remote command execution issue exists within `redshift-jdbc42` versions 2.1.0.7 and below. When plugins are used with the driver, it instantiates plugin instances based on Java class names provided via the `sslhostnameverifier`, `socketFactory`, `sslfactory`, and `sslpasswordcallback` connection properties. In affected versions, the driver does not verify if a plugin class implements the expected interface before instantiatiaton. This can lead to loading of arbitrary Java classes, which a knowledgeable attacker with control over the JDBC URL can use to achieve remote code execution. ### Patches This issue is patched within `redshift-jdbc-42` 2.1.0.8 and above. ### Workarounds We advise customers using plugins to upgrade to `redshift-jdbc42` version 2.1.0.8 or above. There are no known workarounds for this issue. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, please contact AWS Security at [[email protected]](mailt...
