#vulnerability

A maximum-severity security flaw has been disclosed in the WordPress GiveWP donation and fundraising plugin that exposes more than 100,000 websites to remote code execution attacks. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2024-5932 (CVSS score: 10.0), impacts all versions of the plugin prior to version 3.14.2, which was released on August 7, 2024. A security researcher, who goes by the online alias villu164,

The Apache Helix Front (UI) component contained a hard-coded secret, allowing an attacker to spoof sessions by generating their own fake cookies. This issue affects Apache Helix Front (UI): all versions. As this project is retired, we do not plan to release a version that fixes this issue. Users are recommended to find an alternative or restrict access to the instance to trusted users. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.

Amazon has updated its instructions for how customers should more securely implement AWS's traffic-routing service known as Application Load Balancer, but it's not clear everyone will get the memo.

### Impact Improper authentication on some endpoints used for member actions would allow an attacker to perform member-only actions, and read member information. ### Vulnerable versions This security vulnerability is present in Ghost v4.46.0-v5.89.5. ### Patches v5.89.5 contains a fix for this issue. ### Workarounds None. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Email us at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

### Summary A user could utilize and exploit SQL Injection to allow the execution of malicious SQL query via Get method in sqlKvStore. ### Details I will use explainRuleHandler ("/rules/{name}/explain") as an example to illustrate. However, this vulnerability also exists in other methods such as sourceManageHandler, asyncTaskCancelHandler, pluginHandler, etc. The SQL injection can happen in the code: https://github.com/lf-edge/ekuiper/blob/d6457d008e129b1cdd54d76b5993992c349d1b80/internal/pkg/store/sql/sqlKv.go#L89-L93 The code to accept user input is: https://github.com/lf-edge/ekuiper/blob/d6457d008e129b1cdd54d76b5993992c349d1b80/internal/server/rest.go#L274-L277 The rule id in the above code can be used to exploit SQL query. Note that the delete function is also vulnerable: https://github.com/lf-edge/ekuiper/blob/d6457d008e129b1cdd54d76b5993992c349d1b80/internal/pkg/store/sql/sqlKv.go#L138-L141 ### PoC ``` import requests from urllib.parse import quote # SELECT val FROM 'xxx'...

### Impact A vulnerability exists in the synchronization configuration feature that allows users to craft specific requests to bypass permission checks. This exploit enables them to modify a namespace without the necessary permissions. ### Patches The issue was addressed with an input parameter check in #5192, which was released in version [2.3.0](https://github.com/apolloconfig/apollo/releases/tag/v2.3.0). ### Workarounds To mitigate the issue without upgrading, follow the recommended practices to prevent Apollo from being exposed to the internet. ### Credits The vulnerability was reported and reproduced by [Lakeswang](https://github.com/Lakes-bitgetsec). ### References For any questions or comments regarding this advisory: * Open an issue in [issue](https://github.com/apolloconfig/apollo/issues) * Email us at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

### Impact A malicious homeserver can craft a room or room structure such that the predecessors form a cycle. The matrix-js-sdk's `getRoomUpgradeHistory` function will infinitely recurse in this case, causing the code to hang. This method is public but also called by the 'leaveRoomChain()' method, so leaving a room will also trigger the bug. Even if the CVSS score would be 4.1 ([AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:L](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln-metrics/cvss/v3-calculator?vector=AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:L&version=3.1)) we classify this as High severity issue. ### Patches This was patched in matrix-js-sdk 34.3.1. ### Workarounds Sanity check rooms before passing them to the matrix-js-sdk or avoid calling either `getRoomUpgradeHistory` or `leaveRoomChain`. ### References N/A.

### Impact As an authenticated user one can access a few unintended endpoints

In the Linux kernel, vulnerabilities in netfilter, tls, and tty have been resolved.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6969-1 - It was discovered that Cacti did not properly apply checks to the "Package Import" feature. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform arbitrary code execution. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. It was discovered that Cacti did not properly sanitize values when using javascript based API. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to inject arbitrary javascript code resulting into cross-site scripting vulnerability. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
