#vulnerability

A moderate severity security vulnerability has been identified in the Kaminari pagination library for Ruby on Rails, concerning insecure file permissions. This advisory outlines the vulnerability, affected versions, and provides guidance for mitigation. ### Impact This vulnerability is of moderate severity due to the potential for unauthorized write access to particular Ruby files managed by the library. Such access could lead to the alteration of application behavior or data integrity issues. ### Resolution Those who use the `gem install` command, such as `gem install kaminari -v 0.16.1`, `gem unpack kaminari -v 0.16.1`, or `bundle install` to download the package would **_not_** be affected and no action is required. Those who manually download and decompressing the affected versions are advised to update to 0.16.2 or later version of Kaminari where file permissions have been adjusted to enhance security. ### Workarounds If upgrading is not feasible immediately, manually adju...

The GraphQL controller lacked any CSRF protection, meaning authenticated users could be forced or tricked into visiting a URL that would send a GET request to the affected web server that could mutate or destroy data without the user knowing.

A potential SQL injection vulnerability was identified by using the silverstripe/postgresql database adapter. While unlikely to be exploitable, we have patched silverstripe/framework to ensure that table names are safely escaped before being passed to database adapters or user code.

A possible denial of service attack vector has been identified in the dev/build system controller. dev/build now has its own URL token, similar to flushtoken, to ensure users are authenticated when running dev/build outside of dev environments.

When running SilverStripe 3.7 or 4.x in dev mode with the mysqli database driver, there is a potential to disclose the connection details. We have blacklisted the sensitive parts of the connection information from being included in dev mode stack traces when database errors occur.
