Originally founded as Pro-Sports Promotions Ltd in 1995 and later rebranded as PSP Publishing Ltd, the company is the brainchild of three friends who noticed that, despite being the 'Home of Golf'​, Scotland was bereft of its own, dedicated golf title. Thus, by launching "bunkered"​, PSP had secured a lucrative market niche and almost 20 years later, bunkered is the country's biggest-selling golf title, with ABC Audited Sales of 23,866 per issue. PSP Publishing Ltd became PSP Media Group in 2015 establishing a definitive brand in publishing, events and advertising including core brands such as Girls'​ Day Out Show, The Scottish Golf Show, The Scottish Cycling Running & Outdoor Pusuits Show, bunkered golf club, UK club golfer and many more. PSP Media continue to develop and expand into the digital revolution with the ongoing development of numerous mobile responsive websites, social media channels & bespoke apps. The production and management of all of this business takes place from a purpose-built, five-storey office in Glasgow's city centre, which the company moved to in autumn 2007. In many ways, this hill-top building represents what PSP has become: an icon of publishing, a beacon of professionalism and a symbol of what can be achieved through hard work, positive application and a passion for excellence. And, as new titles are added, new projects undertaken and new colleagues warmly welcomed, there can be no disputing that the sky really is the limit for PSP Media Group Ltd, its titles, its events and, most of all, its employees.

Description

ThingsBoard in versions prior to v4.2.1 allows an authenticated user to upload malicious SVG images via the "Image Gallery", leading to a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. The exploit can be triggered when any user accesses the public API endpoint of the malicious SVG images, or if the malicious images are embedded in an `iframe` element, during a widget creation, deployed to any page of the platform (e.g., dashboards), and accessed during normal operations. The vulnerability resides in the `ImageController`, which fails to restrict the execution of JavaScript code when an image is loaded by the user's browser. This vulnerability can lead to the execution of malicious code in the context of other users' sessions, potentially compromising their accounts and allowing unauthorized actions.
