Northam Platinum Holdings Limited (Northam Holdings or the group) is an independent, empowered, integrated producer of Platinum Group Metals (PGMs) that operates three wholly-owned mines located in the Bushveld Complex of South Africa, Zondereinde, Booysendal and Eland. Northam Platinum Limited (Northam) has been listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) since 1987 with the share code NHM. This has been subsequently replaced with NPH following the listing of Northam Holdings in a share for share exchange. Our three main products mined are platinum, palladium and rhodium and are consumed by industries such as motor manufacturing, jewellery and other industrial sectors. Our activities are integrated throughout the full value stream, from underground mining, through concentrating, smelting and base metal removal to final saleable metal. Precious metal refining is outsourced. Since inception, Northam’s precious metals were refined by Heraeus Deutschland GmbH & Co KG (Heraeus) in Germany, however with the increase in our production base and refining capacity, the group has recently contracted Johnson Matthey PLC as a second precious metal refiner. The growth of our business ensures meaningful employment for our people. We create opportunities for training and skills development both for employees and the communities where we operate. At Northam, we believe in the positive impact of mining not only for our investors but for our communities, our environment and our people.

Description
Flag Forge is a Capture The Flag (CTF) platform. In versions from 2.1.0 to before 2.3.0, the API endpoint GET /api/problems/:id returns challenge hints in plaintext within the question object, regardless of whether the user has unlocked them via point deduction. Users can view all hints for free, undermining the business logic of the platform and reducing the integrity of the challenge system. This issue has been patched in version 2.3.0.

Flag Forge is a Capture The Flag (CTF) platform. In version 2.1.0, the /api/admin/assign-badge endpoint lacks proper access control, allowing any authenticated user to assign high-privilege badges (e.g., Staff) to themselves. This could lead to privilege escalation and impersonation of administrative roles. This issue has been patched in version 2.2.0.
