From the beginning, independence has been the key to Legacy Research’s success. Unlike the mainstream press, we don’t make our money from corporate advertisers. And unlike Wall Street, we don’t take commissions or fees from the companies we cover in our newsletters. Instead, we sell ideas, opinions, and recommendations. What you see is what you get. There’s no more to it. Our mission is to provide readers with a broad view of the world. So, we ask questions. We research and test. But we do not claim to have the last word on every issue. We explore ideas with our readers…so they can decide for themselves. That means we don’t have a one-size-fits-all approach to finance and investing. Each publisher under the Legacy Research Group umbrella including Casey Research, Bonner & Partners, and Palm Beach Research Group, has its own unique culture and outlook… just like each of our readers has their own personal investing style. Bullish or bearish…Conservative or speculative…Stocks, options, or cryptos…the common thread is big ideas.

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.

Mattermost versions 11.0.x <= 11.0.2, 10.12.x <= 10.12.1, 10.11.x <= 10.11.4, 10.5.x <= 10.5.12 fail to to verify that the token used during the code exchange originates from the same authentication flow, which allows an authenticated user to perform account takeover via a specially crafted email address used when switching authentication methods and sending a request to the /users/login/sso/code-exchange endpoint. The vulnerability requires ExperimentalEnableAuthenticationTransfer to be enabled (default: enabled) and RequireEmailVerification to be disabled (default: disabled).
