GHSA-CQX4-9VQF-Q3M8
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-05-28 17:38 – Updated: 2025-05-28 20:08Summary
This advisory addresses a security vulnerability in Mautic where unpublished page previews could be accessed by unauthenticated users and potentially indexed by search engines. This could lead to the unintended disclosure of draft content or sensitive information.
Unauthorized Access to Unpublished Page Previews: The page preview functionality for unpublished content, accessible via predictable URLs (e.g., /page/preview/1, /page/preview/2), lacked proper authorization checks. This allowed any unauthenticated user to view content that was not yet intended for public release, and allowed search engines to index these private preview URLs, making the content publicly discoverable.
Mitigation
Mautic has patched this vulnerability by enforcing proper permission checks on preview pages. Users should upgrade to the patched version of Mautic or later.

GHSA-CWPM-F78V-7M5C
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 22:10 – Updated: 2022-05-24 22:10Impact
The implementation of tf.ragged.constant does not fully validate the input arguments. This results in a denial of service by consuming all available memory:
import tensorflow as tf
tf.ragged.constant(pylist=[],ragged_rank=8968073515812833920)
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit bd4d5583ff9c8df26d47a23e508208844297310e.
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.9.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.8.1, TensorFlow 2.7.2, and TensorFlow 2.6.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
For more information
Please consult our security guide for more information regarding the security model and how to contact us with issues and questions.

"details": "### Impact\nThe implementation of [`tf.ragged.constant`](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/f3b9bf4c3c0597563b289c0512e98d4ce81f886e/tensorflow/python/ops/ragged/ragged_factory_ops.py#L146-L239) does not fully validate the input arguments. This results in a denial of service by consuming all available memory:\n\n```python\nimport tensorflow as tf\ntf.ragged.constant(pylist=[],ragged_rank=8968073515812833920)\n```\n \n### Patches\nWe have patched the issue in GitHub commit [bd4d5583ff9c8df26d47a23e508208844297310e](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/bd4d5583ff9c8df26d47a23e508208844297310e).\n\nThe fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.9.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.8.1, TensorFlow 2.7.2, and TensorFlow 2.6.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.\n\n### For more information\nPlease consult [our security guide](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/SECURITY.md) for more information regarding the security model and how to contact us with issues and questions.\n\n### Attribution\nThis vulnerability has been reported externally via a [GitHub issue](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/55199).\n",

Mitigation MIT-5
Strategy: Input Validation
- Assume all input is malicious. Use an "accept known good" input validation strategy, i.e., use a list of acceptable inputs that strictly conform to specifications. Reject any input that does not strictly conform to specifications, or transform it into something that does.
- When performing input validation, consider all potentially relevant properties, including length, type of input, the full range of acceptable values, missing or extra inputs, syntax, consistency across related fields, and conformance to business rules. As an example of business rule logic, "boat" may be syntactically valid because it only contains alphanumeric characters, but it is not valid if the input is only expected to contain colors such as "red" or "blue."
- Do not rely exclusively on looking for malicious or malformed inputs. This is likely to miss at least one undesirable input, especially if the code's environment changes. This can give attackers enough room to bypass the intended validation. However, denylists can be useful for detecting potential attacks or determining which inputs are so malformed that they should be rejected outright.
