#vulnerability

### Summary In the archive extraction routine of affected versions of the `zip` crate, symbolic links earlier in the archive are allowed to be used for later files in the archive without validation of the final canonicalized path, allowing maliciously crafted archives to overwrite arbitrary files in the file system when extracted. ### Details This is a variant of the [zip-slip](https://github.com/snyk/zip-slip-vulnerability) vulnerability, we can make the extraction logic step outside of the target directory by creating a symlink to the parent directory and then extracting further files through that symlink. The documentation of the [`::zip::read::ZipArchive::extract`] method is in my opinion implying this should not happen: > "Paths are sanitized with ZipFile::enclosed_name." ... > [`::zip::read::FileOptions::enclosed_name`] ... is resistant to path-based exploits ... can’t resolve to a path outside the current directory. Most archive software either decline to extract symlink...

### Impact The Bare Metal Operator (BMO) implements a Kubernetes API for managing bare metal hosts in Metal3. Baremetal Operator enables users to load Secret from arbitrary namespaces upon deployment of the namespace scoped Custom Resource `BMCEventSubscription` (BMCES). An adversary Kubernetes account with only namespace level roles (e.g. a tenant controlling a namespace) may create a BMCES in their authorized namespace and then load Secrets from their unauthorized namespaces to their authorized namespace via the Baremetal Operator controller's cluster scoped privileges, causing Secret leakage. ### Patches The patch makes BMO refuse to read Secrets from other namespace than where the corresponding Bare Metal Host (BMH) resource is. The patch does not change the `BMCEventSubscription` API in BMO, but stricter validation will deny the request at admission time. It will also prevent the controller reading such Secrets, in case the BMCES resource has already been deployed. The issue...

### Impact A bug was found in containerd where containers launched with a User set as a `UID:GID` larger than the maximum 32-bit signed integer can cause an overflow condition where the container ultimately runs as root (UID 0). This could cause unexpected behavior for environments that require containers to run as a non-root user. ### Patches This bug has been fixed in the following containerd versions: * 2.0.4 (Fixed in https://github.com/containerd/containerd/commit/1a43cb6a1035441f9aca8f5666a9b3ef9e70ab20) * 1.7.27 (Fixed in https://github.com/containerd/containerd/commit/05044ec0a9a75232cad458027ca83437aae3f4da) * 1.6.38 (Fixed in https://github.com/containerd/containerd/commit/cf158e884cfe4812a6c371b59e4ea9bc4c46e51a) Users should update to these versions to resolve the issue. ### Workarounds Ensure that only trusted images are used and that only trusted users have permissions to import images. ### Credits The containerd project would like to thank [Benjamin Koltermann](htt...

A flaw was found in Hive, a component of Multicluster Engine (MCE) and Advanced Cluster Management (ACM). This vulnerability causes VCenter credentials to be exposed in the ClusterProvision object after provisioning a VSphere cluster. Users with read access to ClusterProvision objects can extract sensitive credentials even if they do not have direct access to Kubernetes Secrets. This issue can lead to unauthorized VCenter access, cluster management, and privilege escalation.

A recently disclosed security flaw impacting Apache Tomcat has come under active exploitation in the wild following the release of a public proof-of-concept (PoC) a mere 30 hours after public disclosure. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-24813, affects the below versions - Apache Tomcat 11.0.0-M1 to 11.0.2 Apache Tomcat 10.1.0-M1 to 10.1.34 Apache Tomcat 9.0.0-M1 to 9.0.98 It concerns a

Mattermost Desktop App versions <=5.10.0 explicitly declared unnecessary macOS entitlements which allows an attacker with remote access to bypass Transparency, Consent, and Control (TCC) via code injection.

## Summary PostQuantum-Feldman-VSS, in versions ≤0.7.6b0, is vulnerable due to its dependency on gmpy2, which can crash the Python interpreter if memory allocation fails. This can be exploited for denial-of-service attacks, impacting the availability of systems using the library. ## Description The vulnerability arises from gmpy2’s behavior, as noted in its documentation: > gmpy2 can crash the Python interpreter in case of memory allocation failure ([gmpy2 Overview](https://gmpy2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/overview.html)) This stems from gmpy2’s reliance on the GMP library, which terminates the program when memory allocation fails ([GMP Memory Management](https://gmplib.org/manual/Memory-Management)). An attacker can exploit this by crafting inputs that exhaust memory, causing the interpreter to crash and disrupting service for legitimate users. ## Impact - **Availability**: High impact, as the interpreter crash leads to complete denial of service. - **Confidentiality and Integrity*...

### Impact Zincati ships a polkit rule which allows the `zincati` system user to use the following actions: - `org.projectatomic.rpmostree1.deploy`: used to deploy updates to the system - `org.projectatomic.rpmostree1.finalize-deployment`: used to reboot the system into the deployed update Since Zincati [v0.0.24](https://github.com/coreos/zincati/releases/tag/v0.0.24), this polkit rule contains a logic error which broadens access of those polkit actions to any unprivileged user rather than just the `zincati` system user. In practice, this means that any unprivileged user with access to the system D-Bus socket is able to deploy older Fedora CoreOS versions (which may have other known vulnerabilities). Note that rpm-ostree enforces that the selected version must be from the same branch the system is currently on so this cannot directly be used to deploy an attacker-controlled update payload. This primarily impacts users running untrusted workloads with access to the system D-Bus sock...
