Cybercriminals are abusing Advanced Installer, a legitimate Windows tool used for creating software packages, to drop cryptocurrency-mining malware on infected machines, new Cisco Talos research shows.
A new malvertising campaign has been observed distributing an updated version of a macOS stealer malware called Atomic Stealer (or AMOS), indicating that it’s being actively maintained by its author. An off-the-shelf Golang malware available for $1,000 per month, Atomic Stealer first came to light in April 2023. Shortly after that, new variants with an expanded set of information-gathering
JPC2 CMS version 1.0 suffers from a remote SQL injection vulnerability.
Izdelava IDS version 2.0 suffers from a cross site scripting vulnerability.
Adobe Lightroom versions 4.4 (and earlier) are affected by a use-after-free vulnerability in the processing of parsing TIF files that could result in privilege escalation. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
Adobe Premiere Pro versions 22.0 (and earlier) and 15.4.2 (and earlier) are affected by an out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could lead to disclosure of sensitive memory. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to bypass mitigations such as ASLR. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
Adobe Photoshop versions 23.0.2 and 22.5.4 (and earlier) are affected by an out-of-bounds write vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious JPG file.
### Impact For Windows users of `github.com/cyphar/filepath-securejoin`, until v0.2.4 it was possible for certain rootfs and path combinations (in particular, where a malicious Unix-style `/`-separated unsafe path was used with a Windows-style rootfs path) to result in generated paths that were outside of the provided rootfs. It is unclear to what extent this has a practical impact on real users, but given the possible severity of the issue we have released an emergency patch release that resolves this issue. Thanks to @pjbgf for discovering, debugging, and fixing this issue (as well as writing some tests for it). ### Patches c121231e1276e11049547bee5ce68d5a2cfe2d9b is the patch fixing this issue. v0.2.4 contains the fix. ### Workarounds Users could use `filepath.FromSlash()` on all unsafe paths before passing them to `filepath-securejoin`. ### References See #9.

Microsoft on Wednesday revealed that a China-based threat actor known as Storm-0558 acquired the inactive consumer signing key to forging tokens to access Outlook by compromising an engineer’s corporate account. This enabled the adversary to access a debugging environment that contained a crash dump of the consumer signing system that took place in April 2021 and steal the key. “A consumer
