GHSA-H62J-CRG6-GVWF
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-07-10 00:31 – Updated: 2026-07-10 00:31A Use of Incorrectly-Resolved Name or Reference vulnerability in the URL filtering plugin of Juniper Networks Junos OS on MX Series allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to bypass web filtering and access downstream resources that should be unreachable.
If an MX Series device is configured with web filtering, and an attacker sends a request with a specifically formatted URL, this request will get forwarded despite the system being configured to block it. In turn, an attacker can access downstream resources that are expected to be unreachable.
This issue affects Junos OS on MX Series:
- all versions before 23.2R2-S7,
- 23.4 versions before 23.4R2-S8,
- 24.2 versions before 24.2R2-S5,

GHSA-HHQ4-97C2-P447
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-02 20:59 – Updated: 2026-05-06 02:40Summary
Zalo webhook replay cache cross-target messageId scope bypass
Current Maintainer Triage
- Status: narrow
- Normalized severity: low
- Assessment: v2026.3.28 replay dedupe is still keyed too broadly, but the issue should stay scoped to authenticated sibling-target delivery paths rather than arbitrary unauthenticated attackers.
Affected Packages / Versions
- Package:
openclaw(npm) - Latest published npm version:
2026.3.31 - Vulnerable version range:
<=2026.3.28 - Patched versions:
>= 2026.3.31 - First stable tag containing the fix:
v2026.3.31
Fix Commit(s)
4d038bb242c11f39e45f6a4bde400e5fd42e4ebf— 2026-03-31T19:33:57+09:00
Release Process Note
- The fix is already present in released version
2026.3.31. - This draft looks ready for final maintainer disposition or publication, not additional code-fix work.
Thanks @smaeljaish771 for reporting.

GHSA-HQXW-MM44-GC4R
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2021-08-30 16:16 – Updated: 2022-08-15 20:04Impact
Istio 1.11.0, 1.10.3 and below, and 1.9.7 and below contain a remotely exploitable vulnerability where an HTTP request with #fragment in the path may bypass Istio’s URI path based authorization policies.
Patches
- Istio 1.11.1 and above
- Istio 1.10.4 and above
- Istio 1.9.8 and above
Workarounds
A Lua filter may be written to normalize the path. This is similar to the Path normalization presented in the Security Best Practices guide.
References
More details can be found in the Istio Security Bulletin

GHSA-J3RW-FX6G-Q46J
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-12-02 21:10 – Updated: 2025-12-02 21:10Impact
In Apptainer versions less than 1.4.5, a container can disable two of the forms of the little used --security option, in particular the forms --security=apparmor:<profile> and --security=selinux:<label> which otherwise put restrictions on operations that containers can do. The --security option has always been mentioned in Apptainer documentation as being a feature for the root user, although these forms do also work for unprivileged users on systems where the corresponding feature is enabled. Apparmor is enabled by default on Debian-based distributions and SElinux is enabled by default on RHEL-based distributions, but on SUSE it depends on the distribution version.
In addition, a bug in the detection of selinux support in Apptainer's suid mode means that --security selinux:<label> flags may not be applied, even in the absence of an attack. In that case a warning message is emitted indicating that selinux is unavailable, but the warning may be may be overlooked, mis-interpreted, or not seen when apptainer is run from a script or other tool. Failure to apply requested restrictions should result in a fatal error rather than just a warning message.
Patches
Ineffective write of selinux process labels is addressed via an update to the containers/selinux dependency in https://github.com/apptainer/apptainer/pull/3226. That update brings in the upstream fix for https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-cgrx-mc8f-2prm which was for a different but related vulnerability.
Ineffective write of apparmor process profiles is addressed in commit 4313b42.
Failure to detect apparmor / selinux support, when --security flags are provided, is made an error rather than a warning in commit 82f1790.
Workarounds
There are no known workarounds, other than to define system-wide apparmor / selinux policy for Apptainer itself. This would apply to all containers, not just those run with the --security flags, and could impact the operation of Apptainer itself.

CAPEC-159: Redirect Access to Libraries
An adversary exploits a weakness in the way an application searches for external libraries to manipulate the execution flow to point to an adversary supplied library or code base. This pattern of attack allows the adversary to compromise the application or server via the execution of unauthorized code. An application typically makes calls to functions that are a part of libraries external to the application. These libraries may be part of the operating system or they may be third party libraries. If an adversary can redirect an application's attempts to access these libraries to other libraries that the adversary supplies, the adversary will be able to force the targeted application to execute arbitrary code. This is especially dangerous if the targeted application has enhanced privileges. Access can be redirected through a number of techniques, including the use of symbolic links, search path modification, and relative path manipulation.
CAPEC-177: Create files with the same name as files protected with a higher classification
An attacker exploits file location algorithms in an operating system or application by creating a file with the same name as a protected or privileged file. The attacker could manipulate the system if the attacker-created file is trusted by the operating system or an application component that attempts to load the original file. Applications often load or include external files, such as libraries or configuration files. These files should be protected against malicious manipulation. However, if the application only uses the name of the file when locating it, an attacker may be able to create a file with the same name and place it in a directory that the application will search before the directory with the legitimate file is searched. Because the attackers' file is discovered first, it would be used by the target application. This attack can be extremely destructive if the referenced file is executable and/or is granted special privileges based solely on having a particular name.
CAPEC-48: Passing Local Filenames to Functions That Expect a URL
This attack relies on client side code to access local files and resources instead of URLs. When the client browser is expecting a URL string, but instead receives a request for a local file, that execution is likely to occur in the browser process space with the browser's authority to local files. The attacker can send the results of this request to the local files out to a site that they control. This attack may be used to steal sensitive authentication data (either local or remote), or to gain system profile information to launch further attacks.
CAPEC-641: DLL Side-Loading
An adversary places a malicious version of a Dynamic-Link Library (DLL) in the Windows Side-by-Side (WinSxS) directory to trick the operating system into loading this malicious DLL instead of a legitimate DLL. Programs specify the location of the DLLs to load via the use of WinSxS manifests or DLL redirection and if they aren't used then Windows searches in a predefined set of directories to locate the file. If the applications improperly specify a required DLL or WinSxS manifests aren't explicit about the characteristics of the DLL to be loaded, they can be vulnerable to side-loading.
