An issue in Cynet Client Agent v4.6.0.8010 allows attackers with Administrator rights to disable the EDR functions via disabling process privilege tokens.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5978-1 - It was discovered that the network queuing discipline implementation in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the KVM VMX implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle indirect branch prediction isolation between L1 and L2 VMs. An attacker in a guest VM could use this to expose sensitive information from the host OS or other guest VMs.

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.

The SolarWinds Information Service (SWIS) is vulnerable to remote code execution by way of a crafted message received through the AMQP message queue. A malicious user that can authenticate to the AMQP service can publish such a crafted message whose body is a serialized .NET object which can lead to OS command execution as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM.

The function X509_VERIFY_PARAM_add0_policy() is documented to implicitly enable the certificate policy check when doing certificate verification. However the implementation of the function does not enable the check which allows certificates with invalid or incorrect policies to pass the certificate verification. As suddenly enabling the policy check could break existing deployments it was decided to keep the existing behavior of the X509_VERIFY_PARAM_add0_policy() function. Instead the applications that require OpenSSL to perform certificate policy check need to use X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_policies() or explicitly enable the policy check by calling X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags() with the X509_V_FLAG_POLICY_CHECK flag argument. Certificate policy checks are disabled by default in OpenSSL and are not commonly used by applications.

Applications that use a non-default option when verifying certificates may be vulnerable to an attack from a malicious CA to circumvent certain checks. Invalid certificate policies in leaf certificates are silently ignored by OpenSSL and other certificate policy checks are skipped for that certificate. A malicious CA could use this to deliberately assert invalid certificate policies in order to circumvent policy checking on the certificate altogether. Policy processing is disabled by default but can be enabled by passing the `-policy' argument to the command line utilities or by calling the `X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_policies()' function.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2023-1486-01 - Grafana is an open source, feature rich metrics dashboard and graph editor for Graphite, InfluxDB & OpenTSDB. Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development and a clean, pragmatic design. It focuses on automating as much as possible and adhering to the DRY principle. Ruby is an extensible, interpreted, object-oriented, scripting language. It has features to process text files and to perform system management tasks. Issues addressed include HTTP request smuggling, code execution, and denial of service vulnerabilities.

This Metasploit module exploits an undocumented backdoor vulnerability in the Optergy Proton and Enterprise Building Management System (BMS) applications. Versions 2.0.3a and below are vulnerable. Attackers can exploit this issue by directly navigating to an undocumented backdoor script called Console.jsp in the tools directory and gain full system access. Successful exploitation results in root command execution using sudo as user optergy.

A new phishing campaign has set its sights on European entities to distribute Remcos RAT and Formbook via a malware loader dubbed DBatLoader. "The malware payload is distributed through WordPress websites that have authorized SSL certificates, which is a common tactic used by threat actors to evade detection engines," Zscaler researchers Meghraj Nandanwar and Satyam Singh said in a report
