GHSA-qh8g-58pp-2wxh: Eclipse Jetty URI parsing of invalid authority

## Summary Eclipse Jetty is a lightweight, highly scalable, Java-based web server and Servlet engine . It includes a utility class, `HttpURI`, for URI/URL parsing. The `HttpURI` class does insufficient validation on the authority segment of a URI. However the behaviour of `HttpURI` differs from the common browsers in how it handles a URI that would be considered invalid if fully validated against the RRC. Specifically `HttpURI` and the browser may differ on the value of the host extracted from an invalid URI and thus a combination of Jetty and a vulnerable browser may be vulnerable to a open redirect attack or to a SSRF attack if the URI is used after passing validation checks. ## Details ### Affected components The vulnerable component is the `HttpURI` class when used as a utility class in an application. The Jetty usage of the class is not vulnerable. ### Attack overview The `HttpURI` class does not well validate the authority section of a URI. When presented with an illega...

GHSA-g8m5-722r-8whq: Eclipse Jetty's ThreadLimitHandler.getRemote() vulnerable to remote DoS attacks

### Impact Remote DOS attack can cause out of memory ### Description There exists a security vulnerability in Jetty's `ThreadLimitHandler.getRemote()` which can be exploited by unauthorized users to cause remote denial-of-service (DoS) attack. By repeatedly sending crafted requests, attackers can trigger OutofMemory errors and exhaust the server's memory. ### Affected Versions * Jetty 12.0.0-12.0.8 (Supported) * Jetty 11.0.0-11.0.23 (EOL) * Jetty 10.0.0-10.0.23 (EOL) * Jetty 9.3.12-9.4.55 (EOL) ### Patched Versions * Jetty 12.0.9 * Jetty 11.0.24 * Jetty 10.0.24 * Jetty 9.4.56 ### Workarounds Do not use `ThreadLimitHandler`. Consider use of `QoSHandler` instead to artificially limit resource utilization. ### References Jetty 12 - https://github.com/jetty/jetty.project/pull/11723

GHSA-r7m4-f9h5-gr79: Eclipse Jetty's PushSessionCacheFilter can cause remote DoS attacks

### Impact Jetty PushSessionCacheFilter can be exploited by unauthenticated users to launch remote DoS attacks by exhausting the server’s memory. ### Patches * https://github.com/jetty/jetty.project/pull/9715 * https://github.com/jetty/jetty.project/pull/9716 ### Workarounds The session usage is intrinsic to the design of the PushCacheFilter. The issue can be avoided by: + not using the PushCacheFilter. Push has been deprecated by the various IETF specs and early hints responses should be used instead. + reducing the reducing the idle timeout on unauthenticated sessions will reduce the time such session stay in memory. + configuring a session cache to use [session passivation](https://jetty.org/docs/jetty/12/programming-guide/server/session.html), so that sessions are not stored in memory, but rather in a database or file system that may have significantly more capacity than memory. ### References * https://github.com/jetty/jetty.project/pull/10756 * https://github.com/jetty/j...

GHSA-xmmm-jw76-q7vg: One Time Passcode (OTP) is valid longer than expiration timeSeverity

A vulnerability was found in Keycloak. Expired OTP codes are still usable when using FreeOTP when the OTP token period is set to 30 seconds (default). Instead of expiring and deemed unusable around 30 seconds in, the tokens are valid for an additional 30 seconds totaling 1 minute. A one time passcode that is valid longer than its expiration time increases the attack window for malicious actors to abuse the system and compromise accounts. Additionally, it increases the attack surface because at any given time, two OTPs are valid.

GHSA-m85w-3h95-hcf9: DOM Clobbering Gadget found in astro's client-side router that leads to XSS

### Summary A DOM Clobbering gadget has been discoverd in Astro's client-side router. It can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) in websites enables Astro's client-side routing and has *stored* attacker-controlled scriptless HTML elements (i.e., `iframe` tags with unsanitized `name` attributes) on the destination pages. ### Details #### Backgrounds DOM Clobbering is a type of code-reuse attack where the attacker first embeds a piece of non-script, seemingly benign HTML markups in the webpage (e.g. through a post or comment) and leverages the gadgets (pieces of js code) living in the existing javascript code to transform it into executable code. More for information about DOM Clobbering, here are some references: [1] https://scnps.co/papers/sp23_domclob.pdf [2] https://research.securitum.com/xss-in-amp4email-dom-clobbering/ #### Gadgets found in Astro We identified a DOM Clobbering gadget in Astro's client-side routing module, specifically in the `<ViewTransitions />` component. ...

GHSA-g77x-44xx-532m: Denial of Service condition in Next.js image optimization

### Impact The image optimization feature of Next.js contained a vulnerability which allowed for a potential Denial of Service (DoS) condition which could lead to excessive CPU consumption. **Not affected:** - The `next.config.js` file is configured with `images.unoptimized` set to `true` or `images.loader` set to a non-default value. - The Next.js application is hosted on Vercel. ### Patches This issue was fully patched in Next.js `14.2.7`. We recommend that users upgrade to at least this version. ### Workarounds Ensure that the `next.config.js` file has either `images.unoptimized`, `images.loader` or `images.loaderFile` assigned. #### Credits Brandon Dahler (brandondahler), AWS Dimitrios Vlastaras

GHSA-443j-grxv-2pgv: Apache ActiveMQ Artemis: Authenticated users could perform RCE via Jolokia MBeans

Apache ActiveMQ Artemis allows access to diagnostic information and controls through MBeans, which are also exposed through the authenticated Jolokia endpoint. Before version 2.29.0, this also included the Log4J2 MBean. This MBean is not meant for exposure to non-administrative users. This could eventually allow an authenticated attacker to write arbitrary files to the filesystem and indirectly achieve RCE. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.29.0 or later, which fixes the issue.

ABB Cylon Aspect 3.08.00 (sslCertAjax.php) Remote Code Execution

The ABB BMS/BAS controller suffers from an authenticated OS command injection vulnerability. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands through the 'country', 'state', 'locality', 'organization', and 'hostname' HTTP POST parameters called by the sslCertAjax.php script.
