Das Ganze ist Teil der Microsoft Secure Future Initiative (SFI), und die Betriebssysteme sollen bereits vom Start an über gehärtete SMB-Einstellungen verfügen, um sich vor Cyberangriffen besser zu schützen. --------------------------------------------- https://www.borncity.com/blog/2024/09/05/windows-11-server-2024-smb-securit… ∗∗∗ CVE-2024-45195: Apache OFBiz Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution (Fixed) ∗∗∗ --------------------------------------------- Apache OFBiz below 18.12.16 is vulnerable to unauthenticated remote code execution (CVE-2024-45195) on Linux and Windows. Exploitation is facilitated by bypassing previous patches. [..] Based on our analysis, three of these vulnerabilities are, essentially, the same vulnerability with the same root cause. Since the patch bypass we are disclosing today elaborates on those previous disclosures, we’ll outline them now. --------------------------------------------- https://www.rapid7.com/blog/post/2024/09/05/cve-2024-45195-apache-ofbiz-una… ∗∗∗ Watch the Typo: Our PoC Exploit for Typosquatting in GitHub Actions ∗∗∗ --------------------------------------------- In this blog, we explain how we managed to leverage typosquatting in GitHub Actions and got several applications with inadvertent typos to run our ‘fake’ action.

Multiple OGC request parameters allow remote code execution (RCE) by unauthenticated users through specially crafted input against a default GeoServer installation due to unsafely evaluating property names as XPath expressions. The shortcoming has been addressed in versions 2.23.6, 2.24.4, and 2.25.2.

[..] Smart Licensing Utility ist durch zwei "kritische" Sicherheitslücken (CVE-2024-20439, CVE-2024-20440) bedroht. Im ersten Fall kann ein entfernter Angreifer ohne Anmeldung aufgrund von statischen Admin-Zugangsdaten auf Instanzen zugreifen. Mit den Adminrechten des Accounts erlangt ein Angreifer die volle Kontrolle.
