The Temporal api-go library prior to version 1.44.1 did not send `update response` information to Data Converter when the proxy package within the api-go module was used in a gRPC proxy prior to transmission. This resulted in information contained within the `update response` field not having Data Converter transformations (e.g. encryption) applied. This is an issue only when using the UpdateWorkflowExecution APIs (released on 13th January 2025) with a proxy leveraging the api-go library before version 1.44.1. Other data fields were correctly sent to Data Converter. This issue does not impact the Data Converter server. Data was encrypted in transit. Temporal Cloud services are not impacted.

A CSRF vulnerability has been identified in the ABB Cylon FLXeon series. However, exploitation is limited to specific conditions due to the server's CORS configuration (Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * without Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true). The vulnerability can only be exploited under the following scenarios: Same Domain: The attacker must host the malicious page on the same domain as the target server. Man-in-the-Middle (MitM): The attacker can intercept and modify traffic between the user and the server (e.g., on an unsecured network). Local Area Network (LAN) Access: The attacker must have access to the same network as the target server. Subdomains: The attacker can host the malicious page on a subdomain if the server allows it. Misconfigured CORS: The server’s CORS policy is misconfigured to allow certain origins or headers. Reflected XSS: The attacker can exploit a reflected XSS vulnerability to execute JavaScript in the context of the target origin.

Privacy, security, and unrestricted access are the promises of a personal VPN. But what does it actually do,…

Apache NiFi 1.16.0 through 1.28.0 and 2.0.0-M1 through 2.0.0-M4 include optional debug logging of Parameter Context values during the flow synchronization process. An authorized administrator with access to change logging levels could enable debug logging for framework flow synchronization, causing the application to write Parameter names and values to the application log. Parameter Context values may contain sensitive information depending on application flow configuration. Deployments of Apache NiFi with the default Logback configuration do not log Parameter Context values. Upgrading to Apache NiFi 2.0.0 or 1.28.1 is the recommendation mitigation, eliminating Parameter value logging from the flow synchronization process regardless of the Logback configuration.
