A command execution vulnerability exists in the ubus backend communications functionality of Netgear Orbi Satellite RBS750 4.6.8.5. A specially-crafted JSON object can lead to arbitrary command execution. An attacker can send a sequence of malicious packets to trigger this vulnerability.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5964-1 - Harry Sintonen discovered that curl incorrectly handled certain TELNET connection options. Due to lack of proper input scrubbing, curl could pass on user name and telnet options to the server as provided, contrary to expectations. Harry Sintonen discovered that curl incorrectly handled special tilde characters when used with SFTP paths. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to circumvent filtering.

IBM Aspera Faspex 4.4.2 is vulnerable to an XML external entity injection (XXE) attack when processing XML data. A remote authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands. IBM X-Force ID: 249845.

Threat actors are using legitimate network assets and open source code to fly under the radar in data-stealing attacks using a set of custom malware bent on evasion.

Poorly managed Linux SSH servers are being targeted as part of a new campaign that deploys different variants of malware called ShellBot. "ShellBot, also known as PerlBot, is a DDoS Bot malware developed in Perl and characteristically uses IRC protocol to communicate with the C&C server," AhnLab Security Emergency response Center (ASEC) said in a report. ShellBot is installed on servers that

By Deeba Ahmed HinataBot can launch Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks reaching 3.3 TBPS. This is a post from HackRead.com Read the original post: Threat Actors Using Go-based HinataBot to launch DDoS Attacks

org-babel-execute:latex in ob-latex.el in Org Mode through 9.6.1 for GNU Emacs allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a file name or directory name that contains shell metacharacters.

### Summary Diffie-Hellman key validation is insufficient, which can lead to insecure shared secrets and therefore breaks confidentiality. ### Details Russh does not validate Diffie-Hellman keys. It accepts received DH public keys $e$ where $e<0$, $e=1$, or $e \geq p-1$ from a misbehaving peer annd successfully performs key exchange. This is a violation of [RFC 4253, section 8](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4253#section-8) and [RFC 8268, section 4](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8268#section-4), which state that: >DH Public Key values MUST be checked and both conditions: > > - $1 < e < p-1$ > - $1 < f < p-1$ > > MUST be true. Values not within these bounds MUST NOT be sent or > accepted by either side. If either one of these conditions is > violated, then the key exchange fails. For example, a DH client public key $e=1$ would mean that the shared secret that the server calculates is always $K = e^y \mod{p} = 1^y \mod{p} = 1$. In other cases, an insecure order-2 subgroup...

Riello UPS systems can have their restricted configuration shell bypassed to gain full underlying operating system access.

A new Golang-based botnet dubbed HinataBot has been observed to leverage known flaws to compromise routers and servers and use them to stage distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. "The malware binaries appear to have been named by the malware author after a character from the popular anime series, Naruto, with file name structures such as 'Hinata--,'" Akamai said in a
