| A medium severity vulnerability has been identified in the update mechanism of the Phish Alert Button for Outlook, which could allow an attacker to remotely execute arbitrary code on the host machine. The vulnerability arises from the application's failure to securely verify the authenticity and integrity of the update server.
The application periodically checks for updates by querying a specific URL. However, this process does not enforce strict SSL/TLS verification, nor does it validate the digital signature of the received update files. An attacker with the capability to perform DNS spoofing can exploit this weakness. By manipulating DNS responses, the attacker can redirect the application's update requests to a malicious server under their control.
Once the application queries the spoofed update URL, the malicious server can respond with a crafted update package. Since the application fails to properly verify the authenticity of the update file, it will accept and execute the package, leading to arbitrary code execution on the host machine.
Impact:
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows an attacker to execute code with elevated privileges, potentially leading to data theft, installation of further malware, or other malicious activities on the host system.
Affected Products:
Phish Alert Button (PAB) for Outlook versions 1.10.0-1.10.11
Second Chance Client versions 2.0.0-2.0.9
PIQ Client versions 1.0.0-1.0.15
Remediation:
Automated updates will be pushed to address this issue. Users of affected versions should verify the latest version is applied and, if not, apply the latest updates provided by KnowBe4, which addresses this vulnerability by implementing proper SSL/TLS checks of the update server. It is also recommended to ensure DNS settings are secure to prevent DNS spoofing attacks.
Workarounds:
Use secure corporate networks or VPN services to secure network communications, which can help mitigate the risk of DNS spoofing.

This vulnerability was discovered by Ceri Coburn at Pen Test Partners, who reported it responsibly to the vendor. |
| An issue was discovered in seeyonOA version 8, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the importProcess method in WorkFlowDesignerController.class component. |
| An issue in Alfresco Content Services v.23.3.0.7 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the Transfer Service. |
| The ip package through 2.0.1 for Node.js might allow SSRF because some IP addresses (such as 127.1, 01200034567, 012.1.2.3, 000:0:0000::01, and ::fFFf:127.0.0.1) are improperly categorized as globally routable via isPublic. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2023-42282. |
| An issue in briscKernelDriver.sys in BlueRiSC WindowsSCOPE Cyber Forensics before 3.3 allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary code within the driver and create a local denial-of-service condition due to an improper DACL being applied to the device the driver creates. |
| NEC Platforms DT900 and DT900S Series 5.0.0.0 – v5.3.4.4, v5.4.0.0 – v5.6.0.20 allows an attacker to access a non-documented the system settings to change settings via local network with unauthenticated user.

| Improper authorization in handler for custom URL scheme issue in 'ZOZOTOWN' App for Android versions prior to 7.39.6 allows an attacker to lead a user to access an arbitrary website via another application installed on the user's device. As a result, the user may become a victim of a phishing attack. |
| Yubico YubiKey 5 Series before 5.7.0, Security Key Series before 5.7.0, YubiKey Bio Series before 5.6.4, and YubiKey 5 FIPS before 5.7.2 have Incorrect Access Control. |
| The Penci Soledad Data Migrator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 1.3.0 via the 'data' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where images and other “safe” file types can be uploaded and included. This is limited to just PHP files. |
| An issue in Daemon PTY Limited FarCry Core framework before 7.2.14 allows attackers to access sensitive information in the /facade directory. |
| Improper restriction of communication channel to intended endpoints issue exists in Ricoh Streamline NX PC Client ver.3.6.x and earlier. If this vulnerability is exploited, arbitrary code may be executed on the PC where the product is installed. |
| Improper signature verification in AMD CPU ROM microcode patch loader may allow an attacker with local administrator privilege to load malicious microcode, potentially resulting in loss of integrity of x86 instruction execution, loss of confidentiality and integrity of data in x86 CPU privileged context and compromise of SMM execution environment. |
| Pug through 3.0.2 allows JavaScript code execution if an application accepts untrusted input for the name option of the compileClient, compileFileClient, or compileClientWithDependenciesTracked function. NOTE: these functions are for compiling Pug templates into JavaScript, and there would typically be no reason to allow untrusted callers. |
| GeoTools is an open source Java library that provides tools for geospatial data. Prior to versions 31.2, 30.4, and 29.6, Remote Code Execution (RCE) is possible if an application uses certain GeoTools functionality to evaluate XPath expressions supplied by user input. Versions 31.2, 30.4, and 29.6 contain a fix for this issue. As a workaround, GeoTools can operate with reduced functionality by removing the `gt-complex` jar from one's application. As an example of the impact, application schema `datastore` would not function without the ability to use XPath expressions to query complex content. Alternatively, one may utilize a drop-in replacement GeoTools jar from SourceForge for versions 31.1, 30.3, 30.2, 29.2, 28.2, 27.5, 27.4, 26.7, 26.4, 25.2, and 24.0. These jars are for download only and are not available from maven central, intended to quickly provide a fix to affected applications. |
| The file-serving function in TARGIT Decision Suite before 24.06.19002 (TARGIT Decision Suite 2024 – June) allows authenticated attackers to read or write to server files via a crafted file request. This can allow code execution via a .xview file. |
| Use of uninitialized resource issue exists in IPCOM EX2 Series (V01L0x Series) V01L07NF0201 and earlier, and IPCOM VE2 Series V01L07NF0201 and earlier. If this vulnerability is exploited, the system may be rebooted or suspended by receiving a specially crafted packet. |
| This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker to achieve remote command execution on the affected PAM system by uploading a specially crafted PAM upgrade file. |
| The vulnerability allows a malicious low-privileged PAM user to perform server upgrade related actions. |
| A CRLF cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in certain configurations of the SiteMinder Web Agent for IIS Web Server and SiteMinder Web Agent for Domino Web Server. As a result, an attacker can execute arbitrary Javascript code in a client browser. |
| A Prototype Pollution issue in getsetprop 1.1.0 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code via global.accessor. |
