Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202409-25 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Xpdf, the worst of which could result in denial of service. Versions greater than or equal to 4.05 are affected.
Phishing attacks are becoming more advanced and harder to detect, but there are still telltale signs that can help you spot them before it's too late. See these key indicators that security experts use to identify phishing links:1. Check Suspicious URLs Phishing URLs are often long, confusing, or filled with random characters. Attackers use these to disguise the link's true destination
Transportation and logistics companies in North America are the target of a new phishing campaign that delivers a variety of information stealers and remote access trojans (RATs). The activity cluster, per Proofpoint, makes use of compromised legitimate email accounts belonging to transportation and shipping companies so as to inject malicious content into existing email conversations.

The latest version of the evolving threat is a multistage attack demonstrating a move away from ransomware to purely espionage activities, typically targeting Ukraine and its supporters.
### Summary A DOM Clobbering vulnerability was discovered in rollup when bundling scripts that use `import.meta.url` or with plugins that emit and reference asset files from code in `cjs`/`umd`/`iife` format. The DOM Clobbering gadget can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) in web pages where scriptless attacker-controlled HTML elements (e.g., an `img` tag with an unsanitized `name` attribute) are present. It's worth noting that similar issues in other popular bundlers like Webpack ([CVE-2024-43788](https://github.com/webpack/webpack/security/advisories/GHSA-4vvj-4cpr-p986)) have been reported, which might serve as a good reference. ### Details #### Backgrounds DOM Clobbering is a type of code-reuse attack where the attacker first embeds a piece of non-script, seemingly benign HTML markups in the webpage (e.g. through a post or comment) and leverages the gadgets (pieces of js code) living in the existing javascript code to transform it into executable code. More for information ab...
This year, Congress only allocated $55 million in federal grant dollars to states for security and other election improvements.
Hi, Rspack|Webpack developer team! ## Summary We discovered a DOM Clobbering vulnerability in Webpack’s AutoPublicPathRuntimeModule. The DOM Clobbering gadget in the module can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) in web pages where scriptless attacker-controlled HTML elements (e.g., an img tag with an unsanitized name attribute) are present. We found the real-world exploitation of this gadget in the Canvas LMS which allows XSS attack happens through an javascript code compiled by Webpack (the vulnerable part is from Webpack). We believe this is a severe issue. If Webpack’s code is not resilient to DOM Clobbering attacks, it could lead to significant security vulnerabilities in any web application using Webpack-compiled code. ## Details ### Backgrounds DOM Clobbering is a type of code-reuse attack where the attacker first embeds a piece of non-script, seemingly benign HTML markups in the webpage (e.g. through a post or comment) and leverages the gadgets (pieces of js code) living in t...
A previously undocumented malware called SambaSpy is exclusively targeting users in Italy via a phishing campaign orchestrated by a suspected Brazilian Portuguese-speaking threat actor. "Threat actors usually try to cast a wide net to maximize their profits, but these attackers are focused on just one country," Kaspersky said in a new analysis. "It's likely that the attackers are testing the
What happened to KnowBe4 also has happened to many other organizations, and it's still a risk for companies of all sizes due to a sophisticated network of government-sponsored fake employees.
