Many successful phishing attacks result in a financial loss or malware infection. But falling for some phishing scams, like those currently targeting Russians searching online for organizations that are fighting the Kremlin war machine, can cost you your freedom or your life.
A man didn't just have his ID stolen, identity theft ruined his life and robbed him of a promising future.
### Impact In `vega` 5.30.0 and lower, `vega-functions` 5.15.0 and lower , it was possible to call JavaScript functions from the Vega expression language that were not meant to be supported. ### Patches Patched in `vega` `5.31.0` / `vega-functions` `5.16.0` ### Workarounds _Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?_ - Run `vega` without `vega.expressionInterpreter`. This mode is not the default as it is slower. - Using the interpreter [described in CSP safe mode](https://vega.github.io/vega/usage/interpreter/) (Content Security Policy) prevents arbitrary Javascript from running, so users of this mode are not affected by this vulnerability. ### References - Reported to Vega-Lite by @kprevas Nov 8 2024 in https://github.com/vega/vega-lite/issues/9469 & https://github.com/vega/vega/issues/3984 Reproduction of the error in Vega by @mattijn ``` { "$schema": "https://vega.github.io/schema/vega/v5.json", "signals": [ { "name...

### Summary User supplied values passed through to certain attributes in form widgets are not fully escaped for potentially dangerous tokens, and in some cases are rendered in browser as valid html tags. ### Details Attributes passed to the widget (such as `label_field`) containing `<`, `>`, and similar tokens are not fully escaped. This results in some raw values reaching the widget, and rendering in part or fully. For example, a label of: `"Test User <script>I can pass this to the label_field and it gets rendered</script>"` is rendered in the choices's label visually as `"Test User "` with the trailing space, and what appears as an un-executed script tag following it (which is visible when viewing source). The actual output rendered in the browser for this example is: `<div role="option" data-value="63f205b6" class="item" data-ts-item="">Test User <script>I can pass this to the label_field and it gets rendered</script></div>` The script tags appears to be valid in Chrome dev tool...
### Describe the Bug In Directus, when a **Flow** with the "_Webhook_" trigger and the "_Data of Last Operation_" response body encounters a ValidationError thrown by a failed condition operation, the API response includes sensitive data. This includes environmental variables, sensitive API keys, user accountability information, and operational data. This issue poses a significant security risk, as any unintended exposure of this data could lead to potential misuse.    ### To Reproduce **Steps to Reproduce:** 1. Create a Flow in Directus with: - Trigger: Webhook - Response Body: Data of Last Operation 2. Add a condition that is likely to fail. 3. Trigger the Flow with any input data that will fail the condition...
### Summary The `search` query parameter allows users with access to a collection to filter items based on fields they do not have permission to view. This allows the enumeration of unknown field contents. ### Details The searchable columns (numbers & strings) are not checked against permissions when injecting the `where` clauses for applying the search query. This leads to the possibility of enumerating those un-permitted fields. ### PoC - Create a collection with a string / numeric field, configure the permissions for the public role to not include the field created - Create items with identifiable content in the not permitted field - Query the collection and include the field content in the `search` parameter - See that results are returned, even tho the public user does not have permission to view the field content ### Impact This vulnerability is a very high impact, as for example Directus instances which allow public read access to the user avatar are vulnerable to have th...
