GHSA-q898-frwq-f3qp: Minecraft MOTD Parser's HtmlGenerator vulnerable to XSS

### Summary The `HtmlGenerator` class is subject to potential cross-site scripting (XSS) attack through a parsed malformed Minecraft server MOTD. ### Context Minecraft server owners can set a so-called MOTD (Message of the Day) for their server that appears next to the server icon and below the server name on the multiplayer server list of a player's Minecraft client. The Minecraft server sends the MOTD in the `description` property of the [Status Response](https://wiki.vg/Server_List_Ping#Status_Response) packet. The [jgniecki/MinecraftMotdParser](https://github.com/jgniecki/MinecraftMotdParser) PHP library is able to parse the value of the `description` property, which can be either a string or an array of text components. By utilizing the aforementioned `HtmlGenerator` class, it is also able to transform the value into an HTML string that can be used to visualize the MOTD on a web page. ### Details The `HtmlGenerator` iterates through objects of `MotdItem` that are contained in an...

GHSA-593m-55hh-j8gv: Sentry SDK Prototype Pollution gadget in JavaScript SDKs

### Impact In case a Prototype Pollution vulnerability is present in a user's application or bundled libraries, the Sentry SDK could potentially serve as a gadget to exploit that vulnerability. The exploitability depends on the specific details of the underlying Prototype Pollution issue. > [!NOTE] > This advisory does not indicate the presence of a Prototype Pollution within the Sentry SDK itself. Users are strongly advised to first address any Prototype Pollution vulnerabilities in their application, as they pose a more critical security risk. ### Patches The issue was patched in all Sentry JavaScript SDKs starting from the [8.33.0](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-javascript/releases/tag/8.33.0) version. ### References * [Prototype Pollution](https://portswigger.net/web-security/prototype-pollution) * [Prototype Pollution gadgets](https://portswigger.net/web-security/prototype-pollution#prototype-pollution-gadgets) * [sentry-javascript#13838](https://github.com/getsentry/sentr...

GHSA-6784-9c82-vr85: Injection of arbitrary HTML/JavaScript code through the media download URL

### Impact This vulnerability allows an attacker to inject arbitrary HTML/JavaScript code through the media download URL in Sulu CMS. It affects the SuluMediaBundle component. The vulnerability is a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue, which could potentially allow attackers to steal sensitive information, manipulate the website's content, or perform actions on behalf of the victim. ### Patches The problem has not been patched yet. Users should upgrade to patched versions once they become available. Currently affected versions are: * 2.6.4 * 2.5.20 ### Workarounds Until an official patch is released, users can implement additional input validation and output encoding for the 'slug' parameter in the MediaStreamController's downloadAction method. Alternatively, configuring a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to filter potentially malicious input could serve as a temporary mitigation. ### References * GitHub repository: https://github.com/sulu/sulu * Vulnerable code: https://g...
