Hutool v5.8.17 and below was discovered to contain an information disclosure vulnerability via the File.createTempFile() function at /core/io/FileUtil.java.

A novel multi-stage loader called DoubleFinger has been observed delivering a cryptocurrency stealer dubbed GreetingGhoul in what's an advanced attack targeting users in Europe, the U.S., and Latin America. "DoubleFinger is deployed on the target machine, when the victim opens a malicious PIF attachment in an email message, ultimately executing the first of DoubleFinger's loader stages,"

As a result of user applications increasingly registering actual “.zip” files as URLs, these filenames may trigger unintended DNS queries or web requests, thereby revealing possibly sensitive or internal company data in a file’s name to any actor monitoring the associated DNS server

Code injection vulnerability exists in Chatwork Desktop Application (Mac) 2.6.43 and earlier. If this vulnerability is exploited, a non-administrative user of the Mac where the product is installed may store and obtain audio and image data from the product without the user's consent.

An incorrect default permission [CWE-276] vulnerability in FortiClient (Windows) versions 7.0.0 through 7.0.6 and 6.4.0 through 6.4.8 and FortiConverter (Windows) versions 6.2.0 through 6.2.1, 7.0.0 and all versions of 6.0.0 may allow a local authenticated attacker to tamper with files in the installation folder, if FortiClient or FortiConverter is installed in an insecure folder.

A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC NET PC Software V14 (All versions), SIMATIC NET PC Software V15 (All versions), SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.2 (All versions), SIMATIC PCS 7 V9.0 (All versions), SIMATIC PCS 7 V9.1 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC (All versions < V8.0), SINAUT Software ST7sc (All versions). Before SIMATIC WinCC V8, legacy OPC services (OPC DA (Data Access), OPC HDA (Historical Data Access), and OPC AE (Alarms & Events)) were used per default. These services were designed on top of the Windows ActiveX and DCOM mechanisms and do not implement state-of-the-art security mechanisms for authentication and encryption of contents.

**According to the CVSS metric, privileges required is low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** The attacker must be authenticated to be able to exploit this vulnerability.

**What kind of security feature could be bypassed by successfully exploiting this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could execute RPC procedures that are restricted to privileged accounts, bypassing the access check for the RPC procedures.
