ABB Cylon Aspect 3.08.01 (mapConfigurationDownload.php) Config Download

The ABB BMS/BAS controller suffers from an unauthenticated configuration download vulnerability. This can be exploited to download the SQLite DB that contains the configuration mappings information via the FTControlServlet by directly calling the mapConfigurationDownload.php script.

GHSA-h47h-mwp9-c6q6: Possible ReDoS vulnerability in block_format in Action Mailer

There is a possible ReDoS vulnerability in the block_format helper in Action Mailer. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2024-47889. Impact ------ Carefully crafted text can cause the block_format helper to take an unexpected amount of time, possibly resulting in a DoS vulnerability. All users running an affected release should either upgrade or apply the relevant patch immediately. Ruby 3.2 has mitigations for this problem, so Rails applications using Ruby 3.2 or newer are unaffected. Rails 8.0.0.beta1 requires Ruby 3.2 or greater so is unaffected. Releases -------- The fixed releases are available at the normal locations. Workarounds ----------- Users can avoid calling the `block_format` helper or upgrade to Ruby 3.2 Credits ------- Thanks to [ooooooo_q](https://hackerone.com/ooooooo_q) for the report!

GHSA-wwhv-wxv9-rpgw: Possible ReDoS vulnerability in plain_text_for_blockquote_node in Action Text

There is a possible ReDoS vulnerability in the plain_text_for_blockquote_node helper in Action Text. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2024-47888. Impact ------ Carefully crafted text can cause the plain_text_for_blockquote_node helper to take an unexpected amount of time, possibly resulting in a DoS vulnerability. All users running an affected release should either upgrade or apply the relevant patch immediately. Ruby 3.2 has mitigations for this problem, so Rails applications using Ruby 3.2 or newer are unaffected. Rails 8.0.0.beta1 depends on Ruby 3.2 or greater so is unaffected. Releases -------- The fixed releases are available at the normal locations. Workarounds ----------- Users can avoid calling `plain_text_for_blockquote_node` or upgrade to Ruby 3.2 Credits ------- Thanks to [ooooooo_q](https://hackerone.com/ooooooo_q) for the report!

GHSA-vfg9-r3fq-jvx4: Possible ReDoS vulnerability in HTTP Token authentication in Action Controller

There is a possible ReDoS vulnerability in Action Controller's HTTP Token authentication. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2024-47887. Impact ------ For applications using HTTP Token authentication via `authenticate_or_request_with_http_token` or similar, a carefully crafted header may cause header parsing to take an unexpected amount of time, possibly resulting in a DoS vulnerability. All users running an affected release should either upgrade or apply the relevant patch immediately. Ruby 3.2 has mitigations for this problem, so Rails applications using Ruby 3.2 or newer are unaffected. Rails 8.0.0.beta1 depends on Ruby 3.2 or greater so is unaffected. Releases -------- The fixed releases are available at the normal locations. Workarounds ----------- Users on Ruby 3.2 are unaffected by this issue.

GHSA-8jpg-62jc-hwhr: VM images built with Image Builder with some providers use default credentials during builds in github.com/kubernetes-sigs/image-builder

A security issue was discovered in the Kubernetes Image Builder versions <= v0.1.37 where default credentials are enabled during the image build process when using the Nutanix, OVA, QEMU or raw providers. The credentials can be used to gain root access. The credentials are disabled at the conclusion of the image build process. Kubernetes clusters are only affected if their nodes use VM images created via the Image Builder project. Because these images were vulnerable during the image build process, they are affected only if an attacker was able to reach the VM where the image build was happening and used the vulnerability to modify the image at the time the image build was occurring.

GHSA-9224-ggvw-wh7v: VM images built with Image Builder and Proxmox provider use default credentials in github.com/kubernetes-sigs/image-builder

A security issue was discovered in the Kubernetes Image Builder versions <= v0.1.37 where default credentials are enabled during the image build process. Virtual machine images built using the Proxmox provider do not disable these default credentials, and nodes using the resulting images may be accessible via these default credentials. The credentials can be used to gain root access. Kubernetes clusters are only affected if their nodes use VM images created via the Image Builder project with its Proxmox provider.

GHSA-f96h-pmfr-66vw: Starlette Denial of service (DoS) via multipart/form-data

### Summary Starlette treats `multipart/form-data` parts without a `filename` as text form fields and buffers those in byte strings with no size limit. This allows an attacker to upload arbitrary large form fields and cause Starlette to both slow down significantly due to excessive memory allocations and copy operations, and also consume more and more memory until the server starts swapping and grinds to a halt, or the OS terminates the server process with an OOM error. Uploading multiple such requests in parallel may be enough to render a service practically unusable, even if reasonable request size limits are enforced by a reverse proxy in front of Starlette. ### PoC ```python from starlette.applications import Starlette from starlette.routing import Route async def poc(request): async with request.form(): pass app = Starlette(routes=[ Route('/', poc, methods=["POST"]), ]) ``` ```sh curl http://localhost:8000 -F 'big=</dev/urandom' ``` ### Impact This Denial of ...

GHSA-qcvh-p9jq-wp8v: Malicious homeservers can steal message keys when the matrix-react-sdk user invites another user to a room

### Impact matrix-react-sdk before 3.102.0 allows a malicious homeserver to potentially steal message keys for a room when a user invites another user to that room, via injection of a malicious device controlled by the homeserver. This is possible because matrix-react-sdk before 3.102.0 shared historical message keys on invite. ### Patches matrix-react-sdk 3.102.0 [disables sharing message keys on invite](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk/pull/12618) by removing calls to the vulnerable functionality. ### Workarounds None. ### References The vulnerability in matrix-react-sdk is caused by calling `MatrixClient.sendSharedHistoryKeys` in matrix-js-sdk, which is inherently vulnerable to this sort of attack. This matrix-js-sdk vulnerability is tracked as CVE-2024-47080 / [GHSA-4jf8-g8wp-cx7c](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk/security/advisories/GHSA-4jf8-g8wp-cx7c). Given that this functionality is not specific to sharing message keys on *invite*, is optional, ...
