Chinese Hackers Exploiting VPN Flaws to Deploy KrustyLoader Malware

A pair of recently disclosed zero-day flaws in Ivanti Connect Secure (ICS) virtual private network (VPN) devices have been exploited to deliver a Rust-based payload called KrustyLoader that's used to drop the open-source Sliver adversary simulation tool. The security vulnerabilities, tracked as CVE-2023-46805 (CVSS score: 8.2) and CVE-2024-21887 (CVSS score: 9.1), could be abused

New Glibc Flaw Grants Attackers Root Access on Major Linux Distros

Malicious local attackers can obtain full root access on Linux machines by taking advantage of a newly disclosed security flaw in the GNU C library (aka glibc). Tracked as CVE-2023-6246, the heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability is rooted in glibc's __vsyslog_internal() function, which is used by syslog() and vsyslog() for system logging purposes. It's said to have been accidentally

GHSA-4mp7-2m29-gqxf: HashiCorp Vault Authentication bypass

HashiCorp Vault and Vault Enterprise versions 0.8.3 and newer, when configured with the GCP GCE auth method, may be vulnerable to authentication bypass. Fixed in 1.2.5, 1.3.8, 1.4.4, and 1.5.1.

GHSA-wr2v-9rpq-c35q: Etcd Gateway TLS authentication only applies to endpoints detected in DNS SRV records

### Vulnerability type Cryptography ### Workarounds Refer to the [gateway documentation](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/Documentation/op-guide/gateway.md). The vulnerability was spotted due to unclear documentation of how the gateway handles endpoints validation. ### Detail When starting a gateway, TLS authentication will only be attempted on endpoints identified in DNS SRV records for a given domain, which occurs in the discoverEndpoints function. No authentication is performed against endpoints provided in the --endpoints flag. The auditors has noted that appropriate documentation of this validation functionality plus deprecation of this misleading functionality is an acceptable path forward. ### References Find out more on this vulnerability in the [security audit report](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/SECURITY_AUDIT.pdf) ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Contact the [etcd security committee]...

GHSA-2xhq-gv6c-p224: Etcd Gateway can include itself as an endpoint resulting in resource exhaustion

### Vulnerability type Denial of Service ### Detail The etcd gateway is a simple TCP proxy to allow for basic service discovery and access. However, it is possible to include the gateway address as an endpoint. This results in a denial of service, since the endpoint can become stuck in a loop of requesting itself until there are no more available file descriptors to accept connections on the gateway. ### References Find out more on this vulnerability in the [security audit report](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/SECURITY_AUDIT.pdf) ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Contact the [etcd security committee](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/security-release-process.md#product-security-committee-psc)

TELSAT marKoni FM Transmitter 1.9.5 Root Command Injection PoC Exploit

The marKoni FM transmitters are susceptible to unauthenticated remote code execution with root privileges. An attacker can exploit a command injection vulnerability by manipulating the Email settings' WAN IP info service, which utilizes the 'wget' module. This allows the attacker to gain unauthorized access to the system with administrative privileges by exploiting the 'url' parameter in the HTTP GET request to ekafcgi.fcgi.

GHSA-chh6-ppwq-jh92: Improper Preservation of Permissions in etcd

### Vulnerability type Access Controls ### Detail etcd creates certain directory paths (etcd data directory and the directory path when provided to automatically generate self-signed certificates for TLS connections with clients) with restricted access permissions (700) by using the os.MkdirAll. This function does not perform any permission checks when a given directory path exists already. ### Specific Go Package Affected github.com/etcd-io/etcd/pkg/fileutil ### Workarounds Make sure these directories have the desired permit (700). ### References Find out more on this vulnerability in the [security audit report](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/SECURITY_AUDIT.pdf) ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Contact the [etcd security committee](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/security-release-process.md#product-security-committee-psc)
