Over 269,000 Websites Infected with JSFireTruck JavaScript Malware in One Month

Cybersecurity researchers are calling attention to a "large-scale campaign" that has been observed compromising legitimate websites with malicious JavaScript injections. According to Palo Alto Networks Unit 42, these malicious injects are obfuscated using JSFuck, which refers to an "esoteric and educational programming style" that uses only a limited set of characters to write and execute code.

GHSA-g3cp-pq72-hjpv: starcitizentools/citizen-skin allows stored XSS in menu heading message

### Summary All system messages in menu headings using the Menu.mustache template are inserted as raw HTML, allowing anybody who can edit those messages to insert arbitrary HTML into the DOM. ### Details The system messages for menu headings are inserted unescaped into raw HTML: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-skins-Citizen/blob/072e4365e9084e4b153eac62d3666566c06f5a49/templates/Menu.mustache#L8-L10 ### PoC 1.

GHSA-6r3c-xf4w-jxjm: Spring Framework vulnerable to a reflected file download (RFD)

### Description In Spring Framework, versions 6.0.x as of 6.0.5, versions 6.1.x and 6.2.x, an application is vulnerable to a reflected file download (RFD) attack when it sets a “Content-Disposition” header with a non-ASCII charset, where the filename attribute is derived from user-supplied input. Specifically, an application is vulnerable when all the following are true: - The header is prepared with `org.springframework.http.ContentDisposition`. - The filename is set via `ContentDisposition.Builder#filename(String, Charset)`. - The value for the filename is derived from user-supplied input. - The application does not sanitize the user-supplied input. - The downloaded content of the response is injected with malicious commands by the attacker (see RFD paper reference for details). An application is not vulnerable if any of the following is true: - The application does not set a “Content-Disposition” response header. - The header is not prepared with `org.spri...

GHSA-m3mq-f375-5vgh: Vantage6 Server JWT secret not cryptographically secure

### Impact The JWT secret key in the vantage6 server is auto-generated unless defined by the user. The auto-generated key is a UUID1, which is not cryptographically secure as it is [predictable to some extent](https://docs.python.org/3/library/uuid.html#uuid.uuid1) ### Patches No ### Workarounds You may define JWT secret key in the server configuration file

GHSA-j6g5-p62x-58hw: vantage6 lacks brute-force protection on change password functionality

### Impact If attacker gets access to an authenticated session, they can try to brute-force the user password by using the change password functionality: they can call that route infinitely which will return the message that password is wrong until it is correct ### Patches This issue has been patched in version 4.11.0 ### Workarounds None

Inside a Dark Adtech Empire Fed by Fake CAPTCHAs

Late last year, security researchers made a startling discovery: Kremlin-backed disinformation campaigns were bypassing moderation on social media platforms by leveraging the same malicious advertising technology that powers a sprawling ecosystem of online hucksters and website hackers. A new report on the fallout from that investigation finds this dark ad tech industry is far more resilient and incestuous than previously known.

GHSA-prwh-7838-xf82: XWiki allows SQL injection in query endpoint of REST API with Oracle

### Impact It's possible to execute any SQL query in Oracle by using the function like [DBMS_XMLGEN or DBMS_XMLQUERY](https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/19/arpls/DBMS_XMLGEN.html). The XWiki query validator does not sanitize functions that would be used in a simple `select` and Hibernate allows using any native function in an HQL query. ### Patches This has been patched in 16.10.2, 16.4.7 and 15.10.16. ### Workarounds There is no known workaround, other than upgrading XWiki. ### References https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-22734 ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in [Jira XWiki.org](https://jira.xwiki.org/) * Email us at [Security Mailing List](mailto:[email protected])

AI Agents Run on Secret Accounts — Learn How to Secure Them in This Webinar

AI is changing everything — from how we code, to how we sell, to how we secure. But while most conversations focus on what AI can do, this one focuses on what AI can break — if you’re not paying attention. Behind every AI agent, chatbot, or automation script lies a growing number of non-human identities — API keys, service accounts, OAuth tokens — silently operating in the background. And here’s
