Global Socket is a tool for moving data from here to there, securely, fast, and through NAT and firewalls. It uses the Global Socket Relay Network to connect TCP pipes, has end-to-end encryption (using OpenSSL's SRP / RFC-5054), AES-256 and key exchange using 4096-bit Prime, requires no PKI, has Perfect Forward Secrecy, and TOR support.

Apple Security Advisory 2023-09-21-1 - Safari 16.6.1 addresses a code execution vulnerability.

Elasticsearch version 8.5.3 stack overflow proof of concept exploit.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6360-2 - USN-6360-1 fixed a vulnerability in FLAC. This update provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. It was discovered that FLAC incorrectly handled encoding certain files. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause FLAC to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.

An incorrect comparison vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server that allowed commit smuggling by displaying an incorrect diff in a re-opened Pull Request. To do so, an attacker would need write access to the repository. This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server and was fixed in versions 3.6.17, 3.7.15, 3.8.8, 3.9.3, and 3.10.1. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.

Thorough, independent tests are a vital resource for analyzing provider’s capabilities to guard against increasingly sophisticated threats to their organization. And perhaps no assessment is more widely trusted than the annual MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK Evaluation.  This testing is critical for evaluating vendors because it’s virtually impossible to evaluate cybersecurity vendors based on their own

Atlassian and the Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) have disclosed several security flaws impacting their products that could be exploited to achieve denial-of-service (DoS) and remote code execution. The Australian software services provider said that the four high-severity flaws were fixed in new versions shipped last month. This includes - CVE-2022-25647 (CVSS score: 7.5) - A deserialization

pyca/cryptography's wheels include a statically linked copy of OpenSSL. The versions of OpenSSL included in cryptography 2.5-41.0.3 are vulnerable to several security issues. More details about the vulnerabilities themselves can be found in https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv/20230908.txt. If you are building cryptography source ("sdist") then you are responsible for upgrading your copy of OpenSSL. Only users installing from wheels built by the cryptography project (i.e., those distributed on PyPI) need to update their cryptography versions.

Multiple TOTOLINK network products contain a command injection vulnerability in setting/setTracerouteCfg. This vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands through the command parameter. After exploitation, an attacker will have full access with the same user privileges under which the webserver is running - which is typically root.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6390-1 - It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain control channel messages. A remote attacker with access to the control channel could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. Robert Story discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain DNS-over-TLS queries. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 23.04.
