Cloudflare has disclosed that it mitigated a record-breaking distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack that peaked at 3.8 terabits per second (Tbps) and lasted 65 seconds. The web infrastructure and security company said it fended off "over one hundred hyper-volumetric L3/4 DDoS attacks throughout the month, with many exceeding 2 billion packets per second (Bpps) and 3 terabits per second (
A new high-severity security flaw has been disclosed in the LiteSpeed Cache plugin for WordPress that could enable malicious actors to execute arbitrary JavaScript code under certain conditions. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2024-47374 (CVSS score: 7.2), has been described as a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability impacting all versions of the plugin up to and including 6.5.0.2. It was
The building management system suffers from an authenticated arbitrary file disclosure vulnerability. Input passed through the 'file' GET parameter through the 'downloadDb.php' script is not properly verified before being used to download database files. This can be exploited to disclose the contents of arbitrary and sensitive files via directory traversal attacks.
### Summary When creating a new plugin using the `git` source, the user-controlled value `req.body.name` is used to build the plugin directory where the location will be cloned. The API used to execute the `git clone` command with the user-controlled data is `child_process.execSync`. Since the user-controlled data is not validated, a user with admin permission can add escaping characters and execute arbitrary commands, leading to a command injection vulnerability. ### Details Relevant code from source (`req.body`) to sink (`child_process.execSync`). - file: https://github.com/saltcorn/saltcorn/blob/v1.0.0-beta.13/packages/server/routes/plugins.js#L1400 ```js router.post( "/", isAdmin, error_catcher(async (req, res) => { const plugin = new Plugin(req.body); // [1] [...] try { await load_plugins.loadAndSaveNewPlugin( // [3] plugin, schema === db.connectObj.default_schema || plugin.source === "github" ); [...] } ...

Several of the flaws enable remote code execution and denial-of-service attacks while others enable data theft, session hijacking, and other malicious activity.
Ivanti reports that the bug is being actively exploited in the wild for select customers.
### Summary The endpoint `/site-structure/localizer/save-string/:lang/:defstring` accepts two parameter values: `lang` and `defstring`. These values are used in an unsafe way to set the keys and value of the `cfgStrings` object. It allows to add/modify properties of the `Object prototype` that result in several logic issues, including: - RCE vulnerabilities by polluting the `tempRootFolder` property - SQL injection vulnerabilities by polluting the `schema` property when using `PostgreSQL` database. ### Details - file: https://github.com/saltcorn/saltcorn/blob/v1.0.0-beta.13/packages/server/routes/infoarch.js#L236-L239 ```js router.post( "/localizer/save-string/:lang/:defstring", isAdmin, error_catcher(async (req, res) => { const { lang, defstring } = req.params; // source const cfgStrings = getState().getConfigCopy("localizer_strings"); if (cfgStrings[lang]) cfgStrings[lang][defstring] = text(req.body.value); // [1] sink else cfgStrings[lang] = { [defstring]...
