Know what's exploited today. Act before it hits you.
Stay informed about critical vulnerabilities, actively exploited CVEs, vendor advisories, and emerging cyber risks. R4IM continuously monitors trusted public sources and simplifies the actions organizations should take.
A vulnerability was identified in MapQuest Get Directions App 10.16.1 on Android.
A vulnerability was identified in MapQuest Get Directions App 10.16.1 on Android. This vulnerability affects the function getDataColumn of the file ExpoShareIntentModule.kt of the component com.mapquest.android.ace. The manipulation leads to path traversal. An attack has to be approached locally. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
A security vulnerability has been detected in Piwigo up to 16.3.0.
A security vulnerability has been detected in Piwigo up to 16.3.0. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file i.php of the component Image Derivative Handler. The manipulation leads to path traversal. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used.
`openvt -u` is intended to identify the owner of the current VT and then execute `login` as that user from a privileged context.
`openvt -u` is intended to identify the owner of the current VT and then execute `login` as that user from a privileged context. In the documented `kbrequest`/init usage, the ownership test in `authenticate_user()` relies on `stat("/proc/<pid>/fd/0")`. `stat()` on `/proc/<pid>/fd/0` follows the symlink to the underlying TTY device node. As a result, `buf.st_uid` reflects the owner of the TTY node rather than the owner of the process holding the file descriptor. If the TTY owner returns to `root` or the getty owner after logout while an unprivileged process still has `fd 0` attached to that TTY, the check can incorrectly treat that process as belonging to the privileged console owner. Once that check succeeds, the `-u` path executes a passwordless login as the selected user. In the documented `kbrequest`/init deployment using `openvt -us`, this can result in passwordless `login -f root` on the spawned VT. This report establishes that privilege escalation path for that documented deployment; it does not claim equivalent reachability for deployments that do not use `openvt -u` from a privileged `kbrequest`/init path.

The WP File Download plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the delete function in all versions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php). The two-stage exploit requires a first request to the file.save task to persist the path-traversal string into file metadata, followed by a second request to the file.delete task to trigger the unlink call — both endpoints lack capability checks and nonce enforcement.
In FIPS mode, Libreswan's add_decoded_cert() function calls CERT_ExtractPublicKey() and asserts that the result is not NULL.
In FIPS mode, Libreswan's add_decoded_cert() function calls CERT_ExtractPublicKey() and asserts that the result is not NULL. However, CERT_ExtractPublicKey() returns NULL when public key extraction fails, for example if the RSA exponent is set to 0. A remote attacker can send a malformed X.509 certificate in a CERT payload to trigger the assertion, causing the pluto daemon to abort and restart. Continued exploitation causes a denial of service. No remote code execution is possible. Both IKEv1 and IKEv2 are affected. The vulnerability is only exploitable when both the OS and libreswan are running in FIPS mode and at least one CA certificate is loaded. The CERT payload is processed before peer authentication, so no credentials are needed to exploit this. Configurations using only PreSharedKey (PSK) authentication with no CA certificates loaded in the NSS database are not vulnerable.

FeatherPanel versions before 1.3.7.10 fail to validate permissions in the SubuserController updateSubuser handler, allowing authenticated subusers to modify their own permission records. A subuser with minimal permissions can send a crafted request to grant themselves full server control, enabling unauthorized access to sensitive data, backups, and server configuration.
